Al-jazeera News Visits Benin Asaba Road Many Days Of Gridlock (Photos) by PresidentMUGABE(op): 10:17am On Aug 30
The condition of one of Nigeria’s most critical highways has been getting worse for years and recently it ground to a complete halt for days. Al Jazeera asked people on the Benin-Agbor-Asaba road how they view this infrastructure crisis.

Lol, defender of incompetent certificate forger and drug lord. Who selected the contractor, I guess it is Peter Obi's FEC?
When Obi raised alarm about the state of that road, your incompetent president ask his incompetent minister to call for useless debate. Today, you blame the contractor.
Never has Tinubu accepted responsibility for his catastrophic failure.

See the type of thing you are showcasing to the whole world on global viewership platform. Tomorrow you will lie that the whole world is rushing to invest in Tinubu's distraught nation.

This is monumental disgrace, the only major export of Tinubu regime.

When an international powder baron is President everything falls apart, well he achieved what Escobar schemed for and failed...I guess 1 win for the cartel.

Nigeria will be saved

The contractor has challenged Umahi and Okpebholo. Obviously kickback on money paid 🤷‍♂️

The contractor has achieved his aim and objective, which is to give the administration as much bad publicity as possible.

Campaigning indirectly for the opposition.

They shall all be exposed and dealt with
