This is Nwagbaoso road that leads to World Bank estate, Aba.

Like Ohanku, Obehe-Akwaibom, Aba-Azumini and many other roads across Abia, Nwagbaoso road is one of the roads awarded for construction by Niger Delta Development Commission(NDDC) but later abandoned by contractors, probably due to non-funding of the project.



These roads, abandoned for many years now, have causes untold hardship to Abians and residents who live and do business in those areas. The most pathetic situation is that Abia State government can not to go into the roads for construction because there exists subsisting contracts from the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) to some contractors. Hence, Governor Okezie Ikpeazu's call on Niger Delta Ministry to complete abandoned road projects in Abia is a welcome development.

Due to the abandonment of major federal roads linking Abia and neighbouring States, Abia State government under Governor Ikpeazu has freshly constructed two alternative roads leading to Akwa Ibom. This is targeted to ensuring those who come from Akwaibom, Cross River and other nearby States access Aba, the commercial hub of the State, easily for business and other purposes.

In many respects, the challenges posed by the numerous NDDC abandoned road projects in the State can no longer be overlooked. Its bearing on the State's economy is yet a story untold. And my question comes thus; why would the NDDC not complete roads it awarded for construction but later abandoned for years before commencing new road projects?

Abians and residents are hereby beckoned to rise and unit in support of our indefatigable Governor, Okezie Victor Ikpeazu Ph.D for reelection come 2019.
