Years ago, as a small boy, I remember while coming into Enugu Coal City, and looking down from the Hilltop, before getting to the Milliken Hill, the entire city would be glittering, blazing, dazzling, particularly at night. It was a beautiful sight to behold, as electric lights would be shinning everywhere. We used to call it: "Obodo oku n'ewu n'enu" (a town where light shines on its top).
And when you came down from the Milliken Hill, and looked to your right, you would see water gushing out heavily, and non-stop from a very big panel, with an inscription "PWD 1926". You would become perplexed, amazed. It was like an artisan well where water would be flowing day and night.
