embarassed It was a good thing to build this park. A while ago, this place was awesome when it was new...
But the that joy was short lived. The demon of no maintenance culture has pounced on it and it's devouring it at a geometric rate.

No matter how new, cute and polished your shoes are, they "must" be soiled once you get to the entrace and subsequently on the inside.

Such a huge shame.

Minister of Transport

Abuja Municipal Area Council Chairman

Senators etc...

Pls do something.

I doubt the F.G or State Government or even Local Government sees a Penny of those Ticket, Sticker and other levies they collect from those Drivers daily. Thats purely NURTW money. Its like a Cartel of organized criminals.

The government is aware of their existence and use them for election purposes and allows them free reign to collect this toll at the park forcefully.

Now the Park is fhucked up, they should use that money to fix it.

Well, you cant leave open financial drain pipes unattended like that whilst taking tak payers money to fund their operations

They either get evicted from there first before Works are done, or they should sort their problems out themselves.

I was at the park last week and the state of the road leading into the park is really terrible. It's even more worrying when you realise that this is the major inter state bus park in the capital city center. The minister of the FCT should do something urgently about this park before it becomes absolutely impossible for vehicles to enter the park again.

Nigeria: A third world backward asss cesspit in west africa, just like the rest of africa. In the first place, this is not how a bus terminal(motor pack) should be like. You can't just fence an empty space, build a couple of offices and name it a bus terminal. There is a proper way of doing it, the grounds should be a couple inches of concrete paving, the structures should be reinforced concrete, the ticketing system should be automated to block any revenue leaks, the main terminal building should be completely roofed to ensure a more comfortable environment for passengers.
So there is just no way i can celebrate this mediocre "park" even when it was new. Look at what proper motor packs look like in normal climes. And this are not even the best of them

Maybe that's why I'm so disappointed on siting the decay.

I wish I didn't wish so hard about things in #Nigeria.
