it's a shame we have all this sorts of decayed leaders,
fly overs is their ploys now...and to them thats the best thing they can do for their citizens.
Yet you see some people here fighting themselves that one governor is better than the other.
they are really toying with our mindset.
Apc/pdp they are the same.
They dont really care about us

And they are happy kwanu

#FixOkunRoads: From potholes to boreholes

What is the essence of government when its constituents build their own houses; provide their own potable water; procure their own transmitters; build their own security apparatus and have to raise private resources, to rehabilitate their own roads?

The caption "From potholes to boreholes" is not a mere illusion but a true picture of the plights, suffering, pains, agonies of an ostracized community begging for succour, but who will hear them?

Against the backdrop, this article is carefully scripted to paint the current state of roads in Okunland, which is home to the Yoruba speaking people of Kogi otherwise known as the Okuns.

You would recall some concerned citizens of Kogi, on the platform of Apapo Omo Yagba Peace Association Road Project have been calling on the federal government and other concerned authorities in the past few days, to fix dilapidated roads in Okunland, which has been a death trap and haven for kidnappers over the years.

Subsequently, these concerned citizens started an awareness campaign with the #FixOkunRoads, advocating for the rehabilitation of abandoned roads in the region.

The question is, where is the N621.2bn federal government approved for the rehabilitation of Federal Roads in the country? There's no sense in playing political gimmicks with the mandate of the people. Kogi is entitled to the dividends of democracy and shouldn't be sidelined in the sharing formula if truly the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria is supreme.

As far as the people are concerned, there is no government when you deprive them of their right to these basic amenities needed to improve their livelihood. Good governance is all inclusive with Kogi not an exemption.

The state of Federal Roads in Okunland today have gone beyond bad to worse, as many seems to be counting their losses as a result of the negligence of the so-called leaders who have little or no empathy for the masses that voted them into power.

It's high time politicians stopped promising 'heaven on earth' all in the name of campaigning for elections when they know they won't be able to fulfill their promises to the electorates. Good governance requires sincerity and service to the people, which must be done selflessly without any iota of political gain.

The present predicament of Okuns needs government intervention across board. There is need for synergy between the state and federal governments to create good road networks for the good people of Kogi. With the availability of good road networks, the issue of insecurity and other haphazard occurrences bedeviling the state will be reduced drastically.

Is it now a fly-over competition? Our leaders lack ideas.

what did you expect? It's a "big for nothing" project that makes it seem like they're doing a good job. Kogi doesn't need fly overs that is equally less than ¼ of a kilometer. With this, Yaya hopes to be elected as the next president of Nigeria.

They are sha trying hard to package this failure of a guy for a pipe dream ambition...

That's a good one from his Excellency

This is what is expected of you

Providing social and basic amenities for the great people of kogi state

**akeredolu: I built a flyover in ore and planning other one in another location, I’m the flyover god

Yahyah: I introduced my state the new trend in town so I have 100 points

Dollar man: I have the most colorful flyover and probably the most popular one but my babariya mistakenly sweep some of the money meant for the next one.

Lagos: shall we rise up for the king?

**osun, and some other state not invited though
