The CEO of OVI Construction Company Nigeria Limited, Anthony Ovunda, has reaffirmed that local firms are crucial to solving Africa’s infrastructure innovation problems across the African continent

He stressed the importance of building sustainable, people-focused projects that offer long-term value.
In a statement issued in Abuja yesterday, Ovunda highlighted the potential of African companies to lead infrastructure development across the continent.

“We’re not waiting for global giants to rescue us. We are rising from within with talent, tools, and tested commitment,” Anthony said.

He noted that local firms are not merely taking part, but actively leading in shaping Africa’s future.
Ovunda pointed out that his company is working on more than 40 infrastructure projects across eight states in Nigeria and other parts of Africa.

These projects include solar-powered water systems in rural schools and clean energy installations in underserved areas.

He also stressed the need for sustainability and community impact in all infrastructure projects, he said.”

“Infrastructure is not just about structures. It’s about people,” Anthony stated.

He argued that the success of any project should be judged by how well it meets genuine needs and how long it lasts, rather than by its cost.

“A paved road that floods in the rainy season is not successful. A borehole without proper filtration is not accessible. A solar grid without maintenance is not sustainable,” the statement read.

According to him, infrastructure must be built with care and intention to truly improve lives.

Ovunda also laid out guiding principles for adequate infrastructure, including partnerships across different sectors, honesty in execution, and innovation that suits local needs.

“Engineering must be sustainable, construction must be people-centred, and every project must answer a real need,” the CEO emphasised.

“As Africa faces increasing demand for smart, scalable infrastructure, Anthony highlighted the place of local firms at the heart of the continent’s development journey, he said. “
