That fool that commented "Buhari never promised to fix the road" he should just hear himself for once, you can't argue foolish due to the destabilization of your brain
It's Mr. President duty to overview what affects the masses, remember he pledged with the HOLY QURAN. I heard okigwe/umuahia road is good.


Please and please FG repair ajaokuta road, Kogi that road is a pain in the ass, repair and dualize ikot Ekpene road

This is the road Lai Mohammed and Festus Keyamo are touting as Buhari's key achievement in the South East. Thanks to social media that jerp bursting their satanic lies. Shameless people.

@merimental, pls no vex. But the federal government under Pa Buhari has claimed severally of having fixed this Enugu-Portharcout road.
May be we should ask Lai Mohammed if there are two roads by the same name "Enugu-Portharcourt express way"?
Re: See The Deplorable State Of Port Harcourt-Enugu Expressway by Minjim: 11:56am On Aug 24, 2018
This same road?
That, as I type, is currently under construction.
Moreover, Lai Mohammad never said the road had been constructed. He said the roads are under construction.

What do u ppl actually want?

some of my Igbo brothers are daft. Good luck Jonathan could not fix a major road leading to the heart of Niger Delta you are all here insulting Buhari who has managed to start work on the said road. The Road is currently under construction. The contractor has to stop for now because of the rains. Una hatred for Buhari is so irritating. Tufiakwa

When they said GEJ was building this road in 2015, we shouted Oleh. even Laureta Onochie joined in shouting Oleh,
fast forward to 2018, Laureta Onochie manufactuerd pictures to show us beautiful PH Enugu E/way.


now which of the PH/Enugu road is this. these people are not doing Jack in South East, just like 2nd Nigeria bridge, everything is propaganda but GEJ said you can win Election with propaganda bet you can rule with propaganda
Re: See The Deplorable State Of Port Harcourt-Enugu Expressway by IDERAWOLE(m): 12:10pm On Aug 24, 2018
Haters can continue their cry. Shameless as they are, your kinsmen ran the govt with the cluless for 16yrs, you never asked them what happened to their brain, that they cant fix your road, you are crying about bad road.

Mischievous lots.

The OP is clearly mischievous, At no time has the Government said it has completed the Portharcourt Enugu Expressway.
Everyone know the Imo River - Eleme stretch is still a Nightmare
On average, Enugu - Ph express road is a nightmare (from start to finish).

Buhari can't do all the roads in Nigeria at once. If previous administrations had contributed their quotas, the states of federal highways in the country wouldn't have been this catastrophic. Na small small. Thank God they're working on the Lokoja-Benin Expressway and Lagos-Ibadan expressway. Na those ones concern me.
But Buhari can quickly complete the Abuja metro and the Kaduna-Abuja railways all in the north?

So all these ss/se leaders can't fix this and they see it on daily basics
It is not their duties per se but come to think of it, Rotimi Amaechi constructed the Port Harcourt-Owerri Road, from Igwuruta to boundary with IMO State during GEJ's administration.
Re: See The Deplorable State Of Port Harcourt-Enugu Expressway by Abagworo(m): 12:30pm On Aug 24, 2018
There's serious construction work ongoing between Aba and Enugu but little or no work between Port-Harcourt and Aba. The Port-Harcourt to Aba section was sand filled at Oyigbo for expansion to 8 lanes but abandoned probably because of heavy rains.

A Facebook user shared pictures of the deplorable state of Port Harcourt-Enugu Highway, a federal road.
[img]https://naijadriva.files./2018/08/39952061_10217044879178212_7323164864564690944_o.jpg?w=614[/img]
It is observed by Naijadriva that over the years, that road has been abandoned by the government. The bad spots on this road starts Oyigbo section(Rivers State) to Aba, through Umuahia, which has the major section(Abia State), then Okigwe (Imo State) to Enugu.

For Example, It took about 20-30mins from Port Harcourt to Aba but due to bad road, it takes longer (1-2hrs depending on whether there is rush hours or not).

The post never said that. Only most parts is like that. Bad road leads to increase in travel time.

Re: See The Deplorable State Of Port Harcourt-Enugu Expressway by Amacaco: 12:50pm On Aug 24, 2018
People should be able to tell the truth on the state of this road instead of coming here to tell lies. I have plied on that road more than two hundred times since 2011 on my way to Aba and Port Harcourt. The road has four sections viz: Enugu to Okigwe, Okigwe to Umahia, Umuahia to Aba, Aba to Port Harcourt. Before 2011 the whole stretch of the road from Enugu to Port Harcourt was in a very bad shape. Jonathan started work on Okigwe to Umuahia and Umuahia to Aba sections. The Okigwe to Umuahia section was about 85% ready while the Umuahia to Aba section was still ongoing as at the time Jonathan left office in 2015. Buhari has continued work on the two sections . Meanwhile nothing has been done on the Enugu to Okigwe and Aba to Port Harcourt sections of the road which has seriously deteriorated since then. It is a complete nightmare to travel on the road with more than twenty five police checkpoints for extortion. It can only be compared to Aba to Ikot-Ekpene Federal road which arguably is the worst Federal road in Nigeria.
