Nigeria, July 8 -- The former governor of old Anambra State and senator who represented Enugu East Senatorial District, Jim Nwobodo, on Wednesday, said that Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State has wiped away his tears by constructing the 14-Bay Bailey Bridge across Nyama river linking Umuogo and Umuagba Amechi Uno/Obeagu communities in Enugu South Local Government Area.

Mr Nwobodo, who spoke during the inauguration of the bridge by Mr Ugwuanyi, expressed his "greatest gratitude" to the governor for "constructing this bridge for my community on your own initiative and without any prompting."

The contract for the construction of the bridge was awarded to the 82 Division of the Nigerian Army Engineers by the Enugu State Government.
