So, Guys and babes, can we improve on my effort... Am thinking of getting a dash-mounted camera for next time... this one was honestly just an impromptu thing... and my phone has a poor camera...
lets have more... taken safely of course I also have pics of a road journey from Abuja to Uyo taken about 4 months ago but am not familiar with the geography and would not be able to remember the names of the places we passed through...

Pritheeann: y r yu jealouz??.

tchidi: See my kpako school gate oº°˚!!

intercom: Am very happy with the roads transformation of Chief Akpabio of Akwa Ibom State, I wish other governors would join him in this agenda. Concerning the issue of the poor state of Ikot Epene road from Abia state, it is a federal road and i would advise a call on the both state governors to jointly approach the federal government and solicit for fund to get the road repaired. I just came back from journey and i have a practical knowledge of what i am talking about

megxo: OP, NXT TYM EHN, MAYBE DO DESAME WEN TRAVELLIN FROM AKWA IBOM 2 SOKOTO.........WE'LL APPRECIATE PICS

rhymz: I am not sure what this is about but it looks more like an EGO ride.
I have been to Akwa Ibom and Enugu, by far, Enugu is more cosmopolitan and have better inner access roads and structures than Akwa ibom.
It appears the intent of this thread besides the Ego ride is to praise AK by making Enugu especially look bad. I am not from either of the states but if I were to settle anywhere in the east, it will definitely be Enugu not AK. I was hoping to see some realy bad roads in the inner suburbs only for you to take pictures of federal roads and rural roads on the outskirts and compare them with inner town roads in AK.

It is all too familiar to not notice the bias. If your intent was to compare the level of developments in these states, then do it with objectivity and equality, don't compare apples with oranges.
Try again next time. AK is cool though.

Oga... if I was comparing Enugu State to Akwa ibom State, The title of my post would have been ROADS IN Enugu State and IN Akwa Ibom State (Notice i left out the words "Pug, Journey, Enugu, To, Uyo )and this would have been in the travel section not cartalk.
I am not comparing the states... merely snapped pics of my journey.
You have the right to wish to settle anywhere in Nigeria... thats entirely up to you.
Maybe I ought to lend you a leaf...
...Sometimes, I read posts/topics on Nairaland which in my opinion are pure bollocks... What i do is just to shake my head and move on without dropping nasty or sarcastic comments... You should do the same.
if you do want to criticize, then do so constructively and we'll all appreciate it, and then next time, it will be done better by me or others who would like to do journey pic stories as well.
And if you feel i am showing off... what if I am...?? Its my car, its my topic, its within the scope of the "car talk" section and to borrow from a certain dude... , its my "MBs"
...and Apples CAN be compared to Oranges... all depends on which properties you want to compare-they're both fruits.
Thank you...

You failed to understand difference between city and highway roads.

Long distance journey is not about the city one takes off from. Its about the things one encounters on the highway or on the road before one gets to his final destination. Were you expecting him to start the picture taking from the room he slept in Enugu the morning he zoomed off? You would say that if the thread was about a diary; what happened in his life that day. The topic was very explicit "... Journey from Enugu to Uyo". That is, what happened between Enugu and Uyo with his Lion, on his way. The towns that came up in the pics were there because he had to pass them before he gets to Uyo. If it was a straight smooth isolated highway, would you have seen those towns you have problems with? I grew up in Awka & Enugu; i still visit Enugu often. In fact, Enugu town is always my first destination each town i travel down to East, since i drive only on Abuja-Enugu highway to East (Never taken Lokoja-Onitsha highway & ain't interested). So i know how good Enugu is. But i didnt read meaning into what you guys are insinuating. Because a petrolhead interest is not about the towns, but the car and roads in question. Is that too difficult to understand?

Is natural for one to take a final picture of his ride when he/she arrives his/her final destination. I would do the same. In fact, i did the same in my own Album i created in my Facebook.

I dont know why its very difficult for some people to understand the difference between Car Talk and Politics section, where almost everyone there have inferiority complex issues. Always looking for who is looking down on you or who is your Anti-tribe or state. Like i have pointed out, this is car talk section. Before you comment, first check for the section you are in. We have our own way discussion which is non tribal or non political. If you cant stand our maturity, let us be.

Ikenna.

rhymz: Guy call it what you like and act so unassuming and harmless, the fact still remains that your attempt is a subtle diss at the governments of those other two states, Enugu especially.

it is so glaring that underneath all that light gist about your journey and car, is the real motive of the thread: Akwa Ibom is working and the government of the other two states are not doing anything-not that I have a problem with your uncanny attempt, my grouse is the fact you had to do it in guise of talking about your car while you hit below the belt at these other states.

Even if it is generally agreed Abia state has the worst government in the east hence your subtle snide remarks about Abia state, thesame argument can't be surreptitously extended to Enugu, you over did it and made your bias and motive so obvious when you extended it to Enugu state.

Enugu State in my opinion is the finest eastern state with enviable infrastructures and social life comparable to may be Portharcourt. Akwa Ibom is ok too but has nothing on Enugu that's the ugly truth. So grotesquely highliting inter-state roads-whether express, state or federal roads in these two states in a list of suggestive pictures while hailing and showing off newly constructed ones in AK is disingenous and an inglorious attempt to hit below the belt.
Your picture story is vague and unbalanced and can easily be misinterpreted as evidenced from some of the posts here.
I just had to point it out cos I see where this is going, already some posters have started clumping the performing Enugu state goverment with Abia's, that is so not fair on Chime who as far as performance is concerned has been the most performing in the east giving the meagre allocation to Enugu and the level of what he has achieved in Enugu. Akwa Ibom seems like is working the most because like Rivers and Lagos, they have a chunky allocation to work with.
You seriously do not need to Abia or Enugu state to look mediocre to make AK look dashing and desirable, it already is.

As for whether you are showing off, of course you are, it is expected and understandable, infact, that is the reason for this section. I will do thesame if I had the time too. . .lol. . I aint hating or sth, just telling the obvious.
