What was once a major road linking key parts of Benin City has now turned into a nightmare for motorists and residents! 🚗💦

This video shows the deplorable condition of Sapele Road, with deep potholes, stagnant water, and broken sections making driving almost impossible. Many commuters are seen struggling to navigate the road, while others abandon their vehicles completely.

Residents say they’ve been crying out for help for years, yet the government has turned a blind eye. The situation gets even worse whenever it rains — turning the entire stretch into a muddy river of frustration. 🌧️😤

Benin residents are demanding urgent repairs and accountability, calling on authorities to fix what they describe as a death trap in the heart of the city.

🎥 Watch the video to see the shocking state of Sapele Road and hear what road users have to say about their daily struggles.

Ordinary road Dem no fit do, the easiest thing to do for any govt

Benin and Warri no dey carry last for bad roads

Most roads are in terrible states now, hardly you will go to a state without such terrible roads, yet we keep budgeting for roads everywhere. I think the north Central states are worst.

I can testify it to this..... Edo government needs to do a lot of work

so sad.... see wetin Nigerians dey suffer yet na Calabar Lagos road be their priority

And the governor make tinubu cap compulsory instead good roads

Minister of Work David Umiah your attention is needed at Sapele

One man has been shouting since this governor came in that Edo is shinning I can clearly see how bright ☀️😎 it is shining, they won't stop the noise and go to work

The Edo governor is more interested in canvassing votes for Tinubu in 2027 than fixing the state's road.

Delta state with all the allocations is sleeping and the citizen don’t care.

The trailer later swim inside the water

The persons y'all voted for are more concerned about the next election.

As e dey like that an individual can not just do that road even if he or she want to fix it or even pour gravel to level that place.
He will be threatened or even arrested for doing it.

You have roads like this that are the arteries of the country. They are in a deplorable state and should have, could have been fixed first, but your president instead elected to spend billions on a white elephant project. Does that make sense to you?

Mind you this road in question is a federal A1 road. Seeing as you are a staunch Tinubu supporter, what do you have to say about that?

Thank God there was no casualties

It would have been so fatal if there was a vehicle by it side

Earlier they said OBASEKI didn’t do it because he was PDP

Now APC has taken over , yet the same thing



Sai BABA , on your watermelon testeès we stand

Please, how can we describe Benin as part of the Southeast so that we can involve Peter Obi in this matter and absolve Escobar of it?

I'm open to suggestions.

Poor camera, go back with a Good phone and then i can comment

where are Pa Bubu Minister of Work etc

When sane Nigerians were talking, the eternally condemned ones were ranting. How can you embark on the construction of coastal highway when the existing roads are death trap?

A government that don't reason and blind supporters that are even more foolish

Very deplorable, I pity the road users and their vehicles

How does this concern Delta or you are just trying to be mischievous? Delta is the one of the states in Nigeria that has the best road network; if you have any road that look like this in Delta state, post here

And this is a federal road. Smh. . When they are supposed to declare a state of emergency on all roads in the country, they chose to siphon money in the name of constructing ‘coastal roads’

Instead of Tinibu to fix federal roads na lie na to do coastal roads, u see yr life, just busy wasting money while senators are clapping for him,

Some politicians are already campaigning instead of doing their jobs

The only country in the world that cannot use the instrumentality of democracy to better itself and it's people's.

Change government every four years, election after election costing billions over billions yet nothing about the country changes, useless exercises in futility the citizens indulge in.

Must really suck to be a citizen of this country.
