Every country has a slum. In the U. S there are slums too. Sadly most of these slums are usually inhabited by black people who go there to spoil their country for them.
every country has terribly highways like lokoja-Benin, onitsha-Enugu, Enugu-ph, Lagos-onitsha, ph-Benin, owerri-ph, ABA-ikot ekpene, calabar-uyo, minna-suleija and 100s of death trap highways?

Over here in the UK Slum dwellers are ussually a mixture of black british and African blacks/immigrants. like pekham, Dalston, hackney, brixton. you would also find large population of Nigerians mostly in Areas like Camberwell, lewisham, Abbeywood, pekham and woolwich.

Wow! while in US, the slums/hoods are predominantly the natural habitat for most black Americans to the extent that blacks from other nationalities even dread to live in such places.

But why is it looking like Naija is cursed like this. We go see good thing for another country for the government to copy them na lie. Na only bad bad things we dey gum body put. Why.

Because, there is no accountability and the politicians are worshiped in Nigeria while in western countries, politicians are held accountable and considered as public servants and not feudal lords like the ones in Nigeria.

When you see a Nigerian politician overseas, he turns out to be the most humble and respectful individual and respects himself because he automatically becomes a nobody and very vulnerable but one's they get to Muritala Muhammad airport, those demonic spirits of wickedness, arrogance and feudal lord mentality repossessed them again.

Bros leave story and stop defending another country's flaws while always quick to point out yours. 'Pothole' na 'pothole' whether na for motorable road, an alley, enclosed area or whatever you choose to call it. What you are doing is tantamount to TREASON.

Treason? Slow down Mufasa, don't use words bigger than your IQ...lol. Read up about segragation of duties, some roads are meant to be the work of federal and state while some are that of municipalities. There are some that are even left up to the homeowners/neighborhood associations but what do you know, as far as you're concerned road na road.... BUSH BOY.....lol.

Why won't some part or Naija be better than some part in UK?

I repeat stick to words at the same level....Britons including Europeans and Americans are among the most critical sets of people in the world, how do you think most revolution starts? Ode....Let's start from the USA where some refuse to stand for their national anthem or the UK where the protest against Brexit and high taxation has led to several people being arrested and several stand offs with the police. I've been to several places in London(oxford, brighton), several places outside of it including birmingham and kent, I've traveled over 14 countries and I've yet to meet someone duller than you....Get sense!

E get one man wey get wetin yoruba dey call afojudi....meaning to under estimate or under date something. He was driving along ikeja gra popular road, instead of dodging the water logged portion of the road filled with stagnant water, he ran into it because he was driving an SUV, thinking he would wade through the water and same would help him wash the clog underneath his vehicle, as he drove in the stagnant water, suddenly, na only the roof of the suv we dey see. grin Opelope awon alaanu ara samaria, who helped out. Those guys actually hid there to make money from victims. The driver managed to get out of the vehicle. The whole interior was full of water. After negotiating with those guys around, they used one danfo bus to tow the suv out of the dish. What a city, what a country undecided and fashola would be saying 30% of our roads are good. Mtcheeew. He has suddenly join the league of liars.


You're even been generous with the 30% man said its only 15% and said we actually drove to bad portion that means most were good cheesy . He should come to Osun State alone í will be his tour guide and show him roads that have been abandoned since nigeria started us mobile phones and have not been done till date.

That UK road isn't a major road whereas the Nigerian road is a major road. Not comparable anyway.
That road is Nigeria Freeway named after Babangida.

I went to Newark in New Jersey to buy Nigerian food stuffs. It was real difficult searching for the place. I regretted going to that area, I saw many idle mean looking black american guys clustered in groups. Its was so scary. There were police vehicles parked at different points. I don't want to imagine the fear of being sent to police such area. Ajegunle boys cannot scare me as much as those guys did. Those guys were jobless, probably drug gangs. They were many of them. The area was unkempt looking sef, weeds on the roads, trash everywhere. Ha! O bad gan.

Are these potholes limited to our slums?
So, now you want us to keep living this way, afterall, we can still find the same condition in advanced countries?
You are a miserable pathetic soul if you actually mean that.

In Nigeria, you will see these death traps on most of our roads. History will also show you that several contracts have bn awarded for these roads to be fixed and someone is telling me UK this UK dat.

The Op that sent this is an asslicker.
He forgot that that his friend sending him the pics of UK potholes may be living in one of those GGRAs (God & Government Rejected Areas)

Tell him to come to the UK major roads and cities and show us their potholes there and let's compare with the ones on our major raods and within the cities.

The potholes have become so bad to an extent it started drawing our country's map
