Community Development: Chief Obele Keys Into Soludo’s Think-Home Road Construction

By Maxim Uzoatu

Anambra State Governor, Professor Charles Chukwuma Soludo, has netted a new bigwig in the personage of Okwunze Aguata, Chief (Dr) Anthony Ikenna Obele, who believes passionately in his Public-Private-Community Partnership (PPCP) initiative.

Chief Obele, one of the biggest-known names in real estate and hospitality business in Lagos and Africa, has caught the bug to key into Mr. Governor’s drive of creating a liveable and prosperous Anambra State by single-handedly financing the construction of a 4.2km road network around his native Ezinifite town and environs in Aguata LGA, Anambra State.

The project which satisfies Governor Soludo’s prototype road standard is aimed at opening up the vast uncultivated lands in the area and reclaim terrains ravaged by erosion gullies.

The ultimate plan is to link the community to the Amawbia-Agulu-Nanka-Ekwulobia-Uga interstate highway being constructed by Governor Soludo. The new road will go a long way in easing traffic and reducing travel time.

Chief (Dr) Amb Anthony Ikenna Obele is widely hailed as Okwunze Aguata, a title conferred on him by the traditional rulers of the 14 communities of Aguata LGA.

An unassuming young entrepreneur, Chief Obele is adoringly called 7-Star-General by his circle of friends on account of his generosity and philanthropy. The holder of a B.Sc degree in Business Management, he is the pride of his beloved Ezinifite town.
