Project Evaluation: The State Of Enugu Ultra-modern Bus Terminal After 1 Year by Olofofo247ng(op): 5:18pm On Aug 21
This is Enugu bus terminal, just one year after opening. Look at how underutilised and completely undermaintained it is.

Kindly share till it gets to the relevant authorities 🚍.

Video:

N.B.: We really need to hold our government responsible for any failed project. I actually brought this to Niraland because I know that you won't see this kind of news on your mainstream news stations.


God bless Nigeria 🙏 .

What do you expect from him after joining APC?

This is not even peculiar to Enugu state. It is happening in most other states apart from Lagos and Kano. People don't have where they are going.

No job. No disposable income.

Only
Market
Church
Mosque
Hotel
Restaurants
Secretariat

No moving Economy

I go lie for you?


Wetin I even know sef? I'm just an ordinary Nigerian Policewoman.

I watched the whole video,

and the only thing that's true about the video is the single gutter where a puddle of water is, in a rainy season o

And maybe the back of the terminal where a little grass is growing, not even tall enough to attract concern.

The true situation of the stations is that they are working properly every day, with buses shuttling from one terminal to the other every minute of everyday, even to Nsukka and Agbani. The video showed keke moving around to pick and drop passengers at the terminal, that proves it's very operational.

The masses in Enugu are enjoying the buses and that's what matters. As for the small complain about the environment at the terminals, I am sure the government will do something about it soon, they have proven to be the listening types, and sanitation in the state is on a very high level.

They seem to be starting another new terminal at Abakpa, around 1st bus stop area, you can see the demolition of the old buildings there, I heard they will compensate the owners.

Enugu state government needs to learn from Lagos. Lagos has been running BRT for close to 2 decades now and the state is still getting it right through a Pubic-Private-Partnership initiative. Humble yourself and go and learn how it works.

Development is not just about building infrastructures without proper maintenance system in place. The same thing is applicable to all the new structures that the Federal Government is building everywhere in Nigeria now. I tell you, if proper care is not taken, the next administration may not be prepared to sustain the pace of the development. Nigerian government seems not to have the maintenance culture for projects. It is not a new thing for us to see a multimillion dollar project being celebrated today and later turn out to be a shadow of itself in the next few months.

Oyinbo man will build a project and include a project sustainability plan in the development process but Nigerians don't. We are more concerned about the creation of the project because of what we have to take from it and not how durable the project is. Projects such as The Third Mainland Bridge, River Niger Bridge stood the test of time because those who built them didn't just build for now and for their pockets but for the future.

Please don't expect anything tangible from this govt. Only hardship is what they have in the books. Imagine the neglect of such an important road and yet the focus on the coastal road. Even the coastal road has caused serious flooding into people's homes. This is shameful.

So, do you expect us to expect anything good from you and your role model?

There is already a thread about an upgrade of the transport system in Enugu, but has the upgrade addressed the issues raised? People complain that road users prefer moving with smaller buses and SUVs than the big buses because they fill up quickly. One would have expected that the government get more smaller buses with CNG instead of getting big buses. It is not all about spending money to solve people problem, it is about spending the money effectively.

@mod Move this to front page so that people can see this as a counter thread with a video evidence. Then, let the people of Enugu express their minds.
