The students of Nnamdi Azikiwe University have called on the government for rescue as the 24-hour busy Ifite road that leads to the school is now officially a death trap!!

The road which draws its terminal from the popular Aroma Junction Awka was submerged by flood yesterday as the early morning heavy rain which woke the residents lasted for five solid hours unstopped. As the contumacious rain sustained its tempo, and even aggravated, the naïve students, lecturers, motorists and other road users who had waited endlessly were seen dangling and staggering in the pool of flood.

Some Keke (tricycle), motorcycles and school shuttles were submerged and abandoned in the pool of flood as they could not scare through the augmenting huddle, while some students had there well-pressed trousers saturated and even stained when they wanted to take it by force.

Governor Willie Obiano had earlier on 25th June 2016 promised to improve the condition of the deplorable and shabby road and to beautify it with solar street lights, during one of his visits to the school where he joined the management and the students in the 'end-of-month' usual sanitation exercise at the filthy Ifite school gate. Work had already begun, but the contractor handling the road was said to be very sluggish which made him delay the work till the surprise arrival of the rainy season.

Reacting to the ugly situation, the Speaker of the school's Students Assembly, the legislative arm of the Students Union Government, Hon. Uchechukwu Okwuchukwu decried the sluggish tempo with which the work is being handled, and called on the the said contractor handling the work to speed up his pace in order to avert the students the negative side of the rainy season, which will soon arrive in it's main form!

Hon. Uche said: "They should do us good by speeding up the pace of the work and ensure its completion before the full arrival of the rainy season"

Students and the management of the school hereby call on the government to rush to their rescue and save the road from the impending doom, as the main rainy season is yet to arrive.

The road connects Ifite, Commissioner Quarters, Unizik Perm-Site school gate, Agu Awka, Amaenyi and other villages in the Awka metropolis.

They are crying in vain. The Nigerian governments are known to be deaf and unresponsive.

CliffordOrji:
Wait o. Is UNIZIK not in Anambra State? I thought some paid obiano political jobbers often tell us that all the roads in Anambra state are tarred with gold. So why are they calling on the federal government to repair a road that has supposedly been tarred with marbles by obiano?


We Igbos need to start telling ourselves in truth. We Igbos should stop deceiving ourselves and face the reality of the extreme underdevelpoment in Alaigbo
