Yes, the local council noticed the number of Nigerians in the area and in the name of diversity and social inclusion blah blah, they decided to implement a 'Nigerian non-maintainance culture programme' to make you feel at home. You are welcome!! grin

One of my friends got her car struts damaged by a pothole in Manchester. Well Manchester city council fixed her car free of charge. I doubt if that can be done in Nigeria.

Is far better than the road to Aso-rock.

If this is potholes,then ours should be called pot-bellies.

You don't just take a photo of an isolated neighbourhood suburb and generalise it as London, You have the responsibility to officially report the condition to the local authority, and trust me, they will be happy to send construction workers to repair it in no time.
You could have brought it to the attention of the local authority instead of trying to shame them here

This thread reminds me that there is one pothole I always drive through to and fro from work. I have always had it in mind to take a picture of it and send to the local authority; and/or claim compensation from them for facilitating the express wearing away of my car tyres threads by willfully neglecting their public duty. grin
