In an oil producing state with one of the highest federal allocations from the Federal government. All these Niger Delta states sef, I no sabi una problem at all.
The resource control we are all clamoring for, I'm having doubts about the ability of the politicians in these states to effectively utilize every kobo accrued to them.


My brother very well you have my mindset the problem of south is our wicked politicians



Anyway, I hope these are very recent pictures?

Stop posting pictures of DELSU Alkarulezz. DELSU is not ABRAKA! Abraka is a town, DELSU is a SCHOOL! Get it?

How long do you think I have stayed in Abraka? Answer: more than 20 years!!!! You know nothing of Abraka! Have you been to Urhuagbesa, Umeghe or Otorho? Or you think Abraka is only Campus 1, 2 and 3?

Or is it that you dont want development to come to Abraka at all? Mr. Alkarulezz.
Answer these simple questions.

1. Are the roads in Abraka more than 6?
2. Are the roads in Abraka not bad?
3. Is electric supply "normal" in Abraka?
4. Do the street lights in Abraka function as expected?
5. Do robberies occur in Abraka?
6. How many government infrastructures are in Abraka?
7. Is Abraka marginalised or not?



Oh please. I have more attachment to Abraka than you do but truth must be said however RAW! undecided
so what is your point

You make it sound like I am writing to attack Abraka. I am not attacking Abraka. I am even trying to attract attention to its plight and instead of you to encourage me, you are here saying it is better than other places. So I should leave Abraka and write of Orogun? Or you think I don't have a village to write about? I picked Abraka for its strategic place in the state. So if you are not a lazy reader, please read the article again.

The writer exaggerated everything.. I'm a student of DELSU (Dept of Economics).. I've been in Abraka for over 3 years.

So because you have been there for 3years you should go on Wikipedia and save edited pictures of the best university buildings? Continue!
Try and snap the Abraka Hall boys fanning themselves at Night...

The situation is not as bad as he portrayed oo....
Does Abraka qualifies as a town with basic amenities? If No Then it's as bad.

Once again, I am not writing about the school or its campuses but about Abraka as a university town.
I wrote EXACTLY as I SAW it. If you see it differently please present a counter article. That is how scholarship is done.

This reminds me of what you said earlier about Abraka people asking for "deve" to repair their roads.

This lady is an Abraka indigene and instead of Jollyjoy to be happy that of all the places that need address in Delta State, I chose Abraka, which is not even my home town, she is here grousing about what is bad, worse or worst.
I laugh in discontent. How unappreciative.
