Port Harcourt Enugu Expressway is a Trunk ‘A’ Road linking the South-South to South-East geopolitical zones in Nigeria. It is a federal road but it is currently in a deplorable state.

From Port Harcourt, as soon as you negotiate Oyibo from Eleme Flyover, towards Aba to Enugu, the road is in a bad state. The road causes a lot of traffic jam, broken down vehicles, accidents, and sufferings to road users plying that road.
From Port Harcourt to Aba is about 30minutes from Rumuola junction (Port Harcourt)but it now takes as long as two or more hours. Where the section of that road is good is after Aba towards Ohuhu-Umuahia-Okigwe sections. Other sections on that Enugu-Aba-PH road are bad too.

Naijadriva can confirm that transporters conveying passengers from Enugu to Port Harcourt, instead of traveling straight to Port Harcourt, negotiate to Owerri and continue their journeys to Port Harcourt. This is farther and increase their travel time, security risk, and money – yes, time is money. The security risk they might face is kidnappers or robbers that operate from 8pm or so, between Imo State Polytechnic, Umuagwo and Omerelu (Rivers State).

We have learnt that some sections of the Enugu-Aba-Port Harcourt road is being fixed by the government but work seems to be very slow.

Due to bad road and cases of highway kidnapping/robbery, some transport companies (Cross Country) has advised (via memo) their drivers to discontinue their journeys by 9.30pm - that is, if they dont arrive their destination before that time.

The FG keeps playing lip service to the menace of bad roads in Nigeria.
Its solution is easy and very long standing.

Simply instruct Dangote, BUA, Shipping agents and other Petroleum Companies to convey their products ONLY via railways.
Then watch life come back to our rail system and how safe and durable our Nigerian roads will become.

Life is easy but too much sense wee not kee me.

I will never blamed my self or the PDP and the APC for this, will not blame the government for this, but I will blame the people,

The people blessed by God, who destroyed the earth, from natural stability to man made destroyer, yet we blame the nature whom we posses from our grandpas.

Who collect contract for the road,(the people)
Who do substandard work (the people)
Who chop the money, the people.
Who suffers the pain( the people)
Who punish you - the people.

The people that always represent the people, whenever, wherever, whereafter the Promising D People.

After People Concrete, because all what we are gaping for is vanity, but he that build on the solid rock shall stand the test of time.
