My Experience Via ORE-BENIN Highway....terrible!!! by iamphilips(m): 11:50am On Feb 18, 2015
hello nairalanders, im actually on a trip to Akure from lagos. I school in akure. I left the park by 9.30am...im currently on the road. Seriously, the state of the road is very bad. On a normal day, i sit at the back section of the bus. But today i'm on the front passanger sit. Hardly can we drive 5-10seconds without entering a pot hole. 80% of the road is made up of pot holes. Im even having pity on the shock absorbes of the bus. The driver cant even go above 80KMPH. This is totally unacceptable. I was told dat its a federal road. On a normal day, i am a GEJ supporter, which i am still but this is totally bad of him n his party. I hope he gets to fix this in the next 4years. Wish me a happy Bumpy ride. Bye!

I believe you wrote this in 2010. Either that or you are trapped back in time.

OP YOU ARE A BLOODY LAIR. I LEFT LAGOS LAST THURSDAY BY 5.30 AM. I HIT BENIN AT 9.30AM.I HIT ONITSHA BY 11.00 AM AND ENUGU BY 12.30PM. EVEN WITH ALL THE CUSTOMS AND POLICE CHECKPOINT WHALA ON THE ROAD I STILL HIT ENUGU BEFORE 1.00PM. WHEN I TOLD PEOPLE I LEFT LAGOS FOR ENUGU THAT SAME DAY THEY WERE SURPRISED. THE ROAD FROM ORE TO ONITSHA IS WORLD CLASS. BROS STOP LYING. I REMEMBER WHEN I STAYED IN BENIN DURING OBASANJO TENURE ALL THE PEOPLE IN MY VILLAGE KNEW MY HOUSE BECAUSE THEY WERE ALWAYS GETTING TO BENIN LATE DUE TO THE BAD ROAD AND LOOKING FOR WHERE TO PASS THE NIGHT. THAT STORY LOOKS LIKE A FOLKLORE NOW. THE ONLY BAD PORTION IS FROM SHAGAMU TO ORE WHICH IS FAIRLY MOTOR-ABLE. THAT ROAD IS THE SINGULAR REASON WHY I WOULD VOTE JONATHAN.

Why do you have to give him another 4 years to fix it when he failed to fix it in the 8 years that he has been in office, both as the Vice and the President?
I remember this was the one and only request of the Oba of Benin when Jonathan visited him...
