Anambra Expands Internet Connectivity With More Wi-Fi Deployment
More residents in Anambra will have access to free high-speed internet services courtesy of deployment of WiFi to more locations.
Angela Nwanodu, the Public Relations Officer of Anambra State Information Communication Technology (ICT) Agency disclosed this in a Statement in Awka on Wednesday.
Nwanodu said granting access to more people was in line with the Gov. Chukwuma Soludo’s vision of “Everything Technology and Technology Everywhere,”
She spoke for Mr Emeka Agbata, Managing Director of Anambra ICTA.
She said the project known as ‘Solution Wi-Fi Initiative’ was part of the Public-Private Partnership (PPP) adopted to drive the digital revolution objective of the Soludo’s administration.
Nwanodu said the Solution Wi-Fi Initiative is driven by the Anambra State ICT Agency in collaboration with Pine Heights Systems Limited (PHSWEB).
The Solution Wi-Fi Initiative was inaugurated in February this year with pilot at three strategic locations including Aroma Junction, Book Foundation, and School Gate Ifite all within the capital town.
Nwanodu said the Solution Wi-Fi had expanded with 14 additional locations across Anambra added to the connectivity.
She said the growth reflected the administration’s commitment to bridging the digital divide, giving students, businesses, and residents greater access to the online resources essential for learning, development, and economic empowerment.
According to her, the partnership accelerates digital infrastructure development, empowering Anambra to lead in technology inclusion while optimizing resources and expertise.
“Connectivity is now available to a broader population, Mr Governor envisions a state where internet access supports innovation, education, and economic growth, because digital inclusion is fundamental for social progress.
“With each new location connected, the Solution Wi-Fi Initiative brings Anambra closer to a fully connected digital ecosystem,” she said.
Nwanodu said the Anambra government and its partners Pine Heights Systems Limited (PHSWEB) were setting the stage for a future where technology fostered growth, learning, and opportunity.
