Here is a cry-out from a Facebook friend on the sorry state of Obohia Road, Ohanku Road, Ibadan Street, Port Harcourt Road, Ngwa Road and many others.

---

These are different sections of the OBOHIA ROAD, in Aba, Abia State... And someone will comfortably post on Facebook that the Roads in Obohia are under serious construction, these and that bra..bra..bra. U needed to have seen how people were suffering today, immersing their legs in such dirty and disgusting waters; I don't want to talk of PH Road, Ohanku Road, Ngwa Road, and even Ibere Road, where houses and other structures were severely destroyed without any serious steps to put the Road into normalcy. Those pix ure viewing or rather about to view, are basically Obohia Road, you're yet to see other Roads and if u've not been in Aba for a very long time, u would wonder if the Roads were meant for abandoned Apes. Someone is busy maintaining other manageable Roads/Streets while the basic/major ones that require immediate attention are not looked into; who is deceiving who? SO BE WISE!! Use your tongue and count your teeth, only then will you be able to understand how "beautiful" the Roads are, here in Aba. Remember, these are just few out of many. My experience today wasn't funny, even though I know it wasn't the first time but the one of today was too "unbearable". What would happen tomorrow if rain falls again?
May God have mercy upon us.

PS: The views expressed above are solely of the Original Writer's. I am pleading with Governor Ikpeazu of Abia state to come to the rescue of residents of these areas. Frankly, these places are experiencing serious urban decay. I wrote/forecasted about this in my Bsc. Thesis (Impact of Rural - Urban Migration on the Environment of Aba South LGA, Abia state) back in 2011. Solutions to this are contained in my thesis and one of which is to encourage Reverse Migration (paradigm shift) through urbanisation of other towns in Abia state (Abia North) plus adoption of a Multiple Nuclei Model of development for Aba. I'm aware of the rehabilitation works ongoing in some parts of Aba however, this should be extended to the areas mentioned earlier.

Lagos is dirtier but still has more people hence your logic is flawed.

Every state has it's own dirty areas but Aba is worst among all.
Most dirtiest city in west africa indeed

Be Honest..

was it Buhari or Jonathan that should have build this road?

Like for Buhari- Shares for Jonathan.

buhari should be blaim for neglecting south East

This is disgusting! Ikpeazu please get to work on this road cuz this is an eyesore!

Jisus! Sambisa a better city






Cheeeeeers

The governor should be able to help now that the APC led government have promise to refund monies for such contracts.

Gods own state indeed. No change there since 2013 that i left

May God punish the ORJIS that has ruled this state....

What are these governors doing

Dirty Gala kids

Kai!! T.A Orji and Uzor Kalu really messed up Abia! I wonder if they even tarred any roads or tried to clean up the state because it seems no matter how hard Ikpeazu tries, Abia's neglect over the years are just too pervasive for his efforts to be felt. Tufiakwa.

All those people trading around their should be relocated cos that area is too dirty for theirs and their customers health.

Counsellor local government chairman and governor see work don set

Next time please put viewers discretion

The first time I visited Aba, I was so unfortunate to stay with a friend who reside on this road and it was not a pleasant experience plying this road. Apart from the fact that the road does not have good drainage system, I noticed that residents have the habit of dumping refuse along the road hence causing blockage to the already bad drainage. I employ the government of Abia state to look into this matter ASAP. This road would be used as a yard stick in measuring his achievements at the end of the day.

Governance is dead in Abia State.

So filthy

Up PDP and GEJ down APC all the way for the bad roads in the PDP state. Good example for all governors in Nigeria
