The Enugu State government has approved a 50 per cent discount on accrued land use charges across the state.
Addressing reporters on the outcome of the State Executive Council (Exco) meeting, the Commissioner for Enugu Capital Territory Development Authority (ECTDA), Chidi Aroh, also expressed the council’s delight at the success the government recorded in its Education sector reform.
He gave the example of Master Anthony Okeke, who won the Prestigious Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) prize for the best student in science.
The commissioner said only those who pay their land use charges on or before December 31 will benefit from the discount.
Aroh also said the Exco approved immediate completion of the abandoned Agbani District Hospital, adding that the government had begun similar projects in the two district hospitals in Udi and Enugu North local government areas.
