“The Governor is making a personal effort to ensure that these destroyed infrastructures are restored despite the lean revenue of the state. It is painful to quantify the pain we feel for the amount of time, dedication, commitment and creativity that was put into the provision of these facilities that were destroyed. We are rebuilding them with nothing except the will and love for the coal city.
“In executing the Governor’s order, the Enugu Capital Territory assures good residents that we will put all efforts to replace the entire affected infrastructure,” Onoh said.
