POWERED BY THE ENUGU STATE GOVERNMENT

The New Enugu Smart City is a massive 10,000-hectare urban development project spearheaded by Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah. Located along the Enugu-Abakaliki Expressway, it is designed as a technology-enabled city featuring integrated underground utilities (fiber-optics, central sewage, water, and gas pipelines), solar-powered streetlights, 6-to-8 lane carriageways, and smart security architecture.

The development is a major focal point for foreign direct investment. The Enugu State Government is partnering with the China Communications Construction Company (CCCC) and various United Kingdom-based consulting firms to execute the master plan.


THE JOY ISLAND
(PHASE 1A)

Cities can be transformed in two ways. The first is through visible development new roads, modern schools, upgraded hospitals, and improved public spaces. The second is through the invisible systems that power everything beneath the surface. His Excellency, Governor Peter Mbah’s administration has chosen both, but with a particular focus on the latter: building the digital foundation that will define the future of Enugu for generations to come.
