The entry points into Aba are all messed up. And that goes a long way in painting Aba as a messed up city. The good parts notwithstanding.
Some streets in Aba isn't good as well especially this rainy season. There are better ones tho

When travelling on Port Harcourt - Aba Expressway, the sight of dirts tells you you are in Aba.

There are slums hidden somewhwere in almost every city, but that of Aba is different; you are greeted by filth whether you are entering from the left or from the right. You can fall sick by just driving through there alone.
Well, that's not what we are seeing from this pix. Some sides are good. Don't tell me that guy in the jeep in the last pix has fallen sick

Yeah some streets aren't good. But the entry points paint a very bad picture of the city even before you enter it. Just like Head bridge and upper iweka used to be the bane of Onitsha.

the town is dirty and rugged but those things wont make me hate the town cos i started there. I love ABA. Governance is the only problem i see aba having.
What i need in next years election is a Governor that will invest in aba...the town generates the heighest revenue in the state.

Kachisbarbie: I stay in Aba. These pics are real -truetalk.
But please, Aba is messed up.
I can see Aba/owerri road
-Ekenna
-Azikwe/Asa road
-that Enitona/Tonimas side, that road leading to PZ (Eziama GRA), is good because, PZ is situated there, that's actually where I live and I know the streets that flank it to the left/right are messed up too
-the road leading to Ahia ohuru, can't rem what is called, smooth road but very small.
These pictures must have been taken during the dry season, because we all know how Aba is now. Lets not pretend about it
-you see that Abia poly side, I used the speed I used last 2weeks to pass it yesterday, my bumper never recover till now.
-Faulks Road, you just showed the beginning around Jevenik, lets go a lil further past Omenazu towards Ariaria and story would change

These pics are concentrated on about 5major places in Aba, you just keep on showing me the oncoming/forthcoming lanes.
There is business in Aba, but God know say Aba biz people dey suffer during rainy season. I pity them a lot.

I'm not saying Aba doesn't have good sides, but e be like the bad pass the good.
In all, Aba is a wonderful town, dirt aside. I don't have plans of relocating anymore. I have told my hubby, it's Aba for life...
so you stay in aba as well...
u'v said it all. When it comes to good road, Aba have a few but i believe a good governor will enforce a change in the town.
I love Aba.
I stay on the same street with Sen.Nkechi Nwogu but my road is nothing to write home about.

Starpapermill is my junction

Really? That's good to know.
I love Aba too joor. People don't get our grievance, we not even asking T.Orji to construct roads because that will be too much to ask for.
We asking him to just help us maintain the ones that has been constructed ever since, he refused.

all the good roads in aba 2day is the one of DE Sam...u said maintaining¿ Do aba/owerri rd look like a dualized road?. Wat about the pothole @aba north that do cause jam every morning.
The state govt is at a still...was at Ahia ohuru, the refuse dump i met made me spit the ist time.
Imagine Ebonyi we all took to be the least state of the east have good roads oo.

Am just not feeling this govt...

Current state of Ariaria in the outskirts of Aba. Government needs to help these hardworking people.

My blood boils when i see all these bad areas of Aba.....bad roads; dirt; lack of aesthetics; and no one giving a fuc/k about beautifying and greening up the environment!

This is what you get when you elect a proper local man with zero vision; coupled with a passive electorate! He has spent 7 years as governor yet he couldn't give Ariaria market a friendly and welcoming environment with world-class facilities that would make it a magnate for shoppers (retail and wholesale) from across Africa!

The man just has no class!
