Anambra and Enugu



I went on an official trip to Awka. I was staying in Enugu and shuttling to and fro. The Famous Udi hills with the coal mines are beautiful. There are villages on the hills..Can you imagine the view they have? It must be wonderful. A friend of mine is from Enugu-Ngwo which is the town from where the state derived its name. He says his school was on the highest hill in Udi. I love the idea of being on top of the world.

Anyway, I went to the Anambra State house and talked to the Deputy Governor(official stuff). Of course we deviated and talked about how our people don't go to school and how depressing we are making politics in the state...blah blah blah.

Anyway, I was given an official car and a driver to help me get around Awka (my jazz man is working miracles..LOL). I made her take a picture with me and she laughed very hard and obliged me.

So that is me with my state's deputy state governor, Dame Virgy Etiaba, who always wears hats. And the other is the gate leading to the State house.

Abeg, I need that jazz man's number or is it one of those you have to use a car, then a lorry then a donkey?

Lol...yes..na wettin I gain from the story be that..I love hills and mountains but the idea of living on top of one is scarey..Stayed in ogbudu cattle ranch for 2 weeks, only came down when it was time to go home...2 of those trips up and down the mountain can seriously age a girl.
