Enuff okpa for yu

Faith063:
I'm a Corp member serving in Udenu LGA, Ibeagwa village to be precise, surrounded by villages such as Imilike-Agu and Ezimo Agu.
Ibeagwa is a rural community in Udenu local govt area of Enugu state with population estimate ranging from 2000 to 5000persons (Estimate based on number of buildings obtained using Google imagery and average household size). About 18mins drive from Obollo-Afor - the closest town, and 20-25mins drive from Nssuka which houses University of Nigeria. Ibeagwa is a cool and serene environment inhabited by people with good heart, yes they are nice; in fact, majority I met tried speaking in Yoruba so they could communicate with me, plus they are very quick to serve visitors food (lol). I noticed the major primary activity here is the production of Cashew nut from Cashew seed (they heat with fire, after which they break with hands).
However (SMH), Climate here is totally different from the Southwest, (guess we're fortunate) Rain stopped falling mid-October and I heard there was no rain until June/July when we had started harvesting maize in the Southwest. Meaning there is heat. Intense heat.
_I always thought I knew the definition of a remote area till I got here: a village whose major source of water is rainfall. It has only two boreholes and residents have to trek kilometres with their wheel barrows and kegs through a rugged route (terrain); a road filled with sand and hills.
_Service providers don't even try at all.Thanks to Airtel, we've got some breeze to surf the net, however, the highest download speed I've attained so far is 300kb/s. MTN, 9mobile and Glo are available for call at some locations.
_Electricity is 3days on, 4days off, except when a rich man is throwing a party. Lol.
_Sorry I've got to say this, seems their buildings are designed for short people, I've always got to bend my knees to enter my apartment.
_The collector road linking the villages are tarred but local access roads seems are death traps in disguise - booby trapped with sand. Often times, Motorcycle riders dance to the tune of sand to navigate through.
Oh less I forget, the village has no market, I had to go to neighboring village' market which is costly because commercial motorcycle is most available transport means
Truly truly I say to you, Enugu is in the hands of God. Survival mode activated.
