this is what you get when you ignore geophysical survey prior to road construction.

This is poor pre-engineering design survey, poor design studies and poor engineering construction. It's not a sinkhole. Probably built against a natural drainage or erosion prone area which a good survey would have help established.

Give it a break! I've worked on far complex jobs than this..they did not compact that road well and that was because of the formwork on the culvert..from the pictures you can see that the asphalt thickness was very OK but the compaction wasn't properly done and that's because of the culvert..if water was going through and the culvert wasn't well constructed then it will cause displacement and failure...it's the contractor's fault 100 %
At what depth is the water?
You will just be there assuming surface water 1 to 2 meters deep.
Do you know if the water movement is at 10meters or 20meters?
Contractor should do soil compaction of 20meters depth because of road?
If you succeeded in the past, you were just lucky. You cannot swear here that you knew the soil condition down the bed rock.

So there was no soil and compaction test done during the cause of the job? What kind of excuses are you generating here??

Are you the one that made the earth?
no bro...such disasters7(sink hole)happen when proper planning and drainage systems has no where to go for years thereby making the lower layer of the earth soak and get weak with time.the pressure and weight or the forces on the toplater eventually making it succumb to the force of nature.

But why always abia state? Always tarnishing the image of Igbos.

Emuruha ihe a eme?


Imagine a supposed drainage way being covered with a mere coalter. Chei, inhumanity at its peak

On behalf of all we Igbos, I dash OUT abia state to yoruba. We are better off with just 4 states.

You people are asking for Biafra and you are here planning to give out the only state that is in the forefront of your fight for freedom.

Is it necessary to have Aba? Why not close or bury the damn place. It has been a disaster since the time of Sam Mbakwe.


“Mbakwe earned the nickname "the weeping governor" for crying while trying to convince the federal government to pay more attention to his state; the first occasion of his famed tears was the Ndiegoro flood in Aba, which was then a part of Imo State.” And that was 40 years ago.

I know some people will be like:

"May God punish that awusa contractor and awusa engineers who constructed the road. The awusa governor who awarded the contract... E nor go good for you"

And they have every cause to be angry. If only the South East control their wealth all of these won't be happening angry

Sinkhole appears in the middle of a road in Ogbor Hill, Aba, following heavy downpour

Heavy rainfall in Aba, Abia State, led to a sinkhole appearing in the middle of the road in Ogbor Hill, just after Waterside.

Residents emerged from their homes to see the shocking sinkhole in the residential area.

A mini bus had been swallowed by the hole and residents gathered round the hole in shock as they took on the sight before them.

Apart from the drainage underneath, the road has a very thin layer! Apparently it looks like ordinary coal tar was just poured on sand. Quite pathetic.
