About 30 minutes after the rain, this road would be dry. From 6am till now rain has been falling also forr about 10 days now rain has been falling everywhere day and if one check Benin City weather forecast for 10 days, one would see rain would also fall for the next five days in Benin. 6 Likes

ayemerbarth: Is it only that road. Inside New Benin, Ugbo road, Ekenwan road are federal road too abi? The problem with Benin is no proper drainage system. Oshiomole collected 150 billion nairn as loan for erosion control and heavy drainage project. Today non of the project is up to 20% in progress. He worsten the whole case by digging abandon holes everywhere and those holes are collapsing. Oshiomole is a scam. 20 Likes 1 Share |

Benin city is a peculiar town as regards rain, I know that area very well. For all just typing ignorantly or out of political disagreement with the state government, to its credit has two drains on that road. By the main carriage and by the service lane. That area is the lowest part of that catchment and so it's always flooded by water right from Ugbowo and adjoining streets and also from areas before Uselu share. The storm water project which is on going will conveniently take care of this problem as it's twin cell box culvert now at textile mill junction will go through Otote down to Adolo College road. Another twin cell box culvert will now take the water from this area through traditional ground Uselu to meet the culvert at Otote/Adolo College road. I know this cos I was fortunate to see the design of the stormwater project currently on going and it will be safe to say it is the biggest erosion control project in Nigeria presently. Benin is a big city and almost every street has drainage/erosion problems. The present stormwater project is taking of only two out of over twenty catchment areas. Let's not politicise everything ok 20 Likes |

IllegalMoney:Someone reading this will think the whole of Benin has these holes u are talking about. Let me educate u a little. The on going storm water project for Uwelu East starts at Uwelu Powerlines by Adolo College road through Uwelu spare parts mkt, Evbuotubu through Ekenwan road to Ogba river a total length of over 7 km comprising of both trapezoidal drains, single and double cell box culverts at different sections. Those HOLES as u call it are foundation trenches for these concrete structures. For that length of construction and with the bad state of the economy (where money is not available for work for months and don't forget that very rich states like Delta, Akwa Ibom who don't have such gigantic projects can't even pay saries for months) about two or three buildings after Ogidan barracks are some metres away from the eroding trenches and this is not unexpected. As of last week work is on going at both Evbuotubu axis by Norman Edwards schools and close to the beginning by Adolo College road. My friend do ur research and SAY NO TO HEARSAY 8 Likes |
