5-Junction In Benin City When It Rains: See What It Looks Like (Photos) by autojosh: 12:40pm On Oct 16, 2018



This is the popular 5-Junction in Benin City, Edo state.

The “5-Junction” is one of the major roads in the city that serves the Benin Metropolis.

Daily, thousands of motorists and public transportation, especially to and from the Eastern part of Nigeria, use this road.

5- Junction was one of the most complicated areas in the state. The road was afflicted by flooding and erosion. For years, it was left in a state of disrepair.

However, in 2013, the Adams Oshionmhole-led administration remodeled and reconstructed the 5-Junction in order to salvage it from years of erosion and flooding.

The remodeling and reconstruction work on the 5-Junction involved the construction of Service Lanes on both sides of Akpakpava- Dawson-Uselu-Ugbowo section of Benin Ofosu Road.

It also involved concrete works, beautification, walkways and streetlights as well as laying of asphaltic concrete pavement into connecting streets.

However, the primary focus was on flooding and erosion control.

The Contractor in charge of the reconstruction project was Reynolds Construction Company (RCC).

The project was completed in 2013.

Today, the 5-Junction, which was constructed without any consideration for placing road-signs around it, appears to be relapsing to its former condition. Flooding has resumed at that strategic transport location.

Apparently, the drainage system built around it is inadequate to control the flooding on the popular junction in Benin-city.

Benin is a disaster during the raining season. Yet Fayose is being hounded day and night, waiting to be persecuted while Oshomole has been rewarded with the National Chairman of APC for the "good job" he did in Edo state

The greatest scam in Edo State is Oshiomole. He collected loans raking in billions and kept the successor in huge debt making him handicap of funds to work...

Upon the whole loan no single successful thing to point to and the flooding was never solved.

He is doing a great job. We all should join hands to point out the lapses in governance. You dare not pass five junction when it is raining. I also saw an article from him on the state of roads in GRA. All the info are correct. Government need to seat up.

That dwarf plunged Edo state into serious debt with nothing to show in Benin city apart from airport road. He went to his local govt, did selective road works in Uzairue without considering Auchi, Etsako central and Etsako east.

Oshiomole has zero administrative skills.
He is not even a business man.

No single certification.
Just like most APC leaders, he presented and ruled Edo State with a Bread Label.

cheesy

It rain from around 5am to 10am today in Benin, so what do you expect, the drainages are already blocked.. Even the recent protest that took place in that junction for government to cover the drainage didn't hold water, no light for good 2weeks now!! angry
