                        The Anambra State House of Assembly Committee on Lands, Survey, and Town Planning has commended the Awka Capital Territory Development Authority (ACTDA) for its contributions to urban development in the state.

Leading an oversight visit to the ACTDA office on March 6, 2025, in Awka, the Committee Chairman, Hon. Jude Akpua, who addressed journalists, praised the agency's progress, particularly under the leadership of its Managing Director, Mr. Ossy Onuko. He noted that ACTDA's work aligns with Governor Chukwuma Charles Soludo's vision of making Anambra a livable and prosperous homeland.

The visit focused on assessing the agency's activities, including internally generated revenue, building approvals, and other key areas. However, Hon. Akpua assured that the committee would thoroughly review the submitted documents before providing further recommendations.

In response, Mr. Onuko welcomed the lawmakers' visit, emphasizing the critical role of legislative oversight in governance. He reaffirmed ACTDA's dedication to transparency and collaboration with the State House of Assembly to drive sustainable urban development in the capital territory.
