One of the first major projects embarked upon by the Adams Oshiomhole administration was the rehabilitation of the Kings Square, Benin city, otherwise known as Ring Road.

Prior to that time, the Ring Road and adjoining streets were in terrible states. There were motor parks at every junction. This caused heavy traffic congestion. Refuse heaps littered the roads, and walking around the Ring Road was a thing of fear due to robbery attacks and activities of pickpockets.

To restore the beauty of the Ring Road, Oshiomhole sacked all motor-parks around the Ring Road, including the one owned by Chief Osamede Adun popularly known as Bob Izua.

Oshiomhole reconstructed all roads leading to the Ring Road to dual carriageways. These roads were fitted with walkways and streetlights.

A water fountain worth N200million was built at the Ring Road.

The Ring Road became a beauty to behold. The street lighting around the Ring Road restored people’s confidence to walk around the place without fears of being robbed.



Today, the Ring Road is speedily slipping back into its former sorry state.

The money spent to beautify the place appears to have been wasted. Workers previously employed to water the grasses and flowers are nowhere to be seen.

The gardens created around the Ring Road are unattended to. Gardens created in front of institutions, such as the House of Assembly, Central Hospital, First Bank are unkempt.

Rails erected around many of the gardens have been destroyed. Many of the flower pots in adjoining streets are without flowers. Pavements in the adjoining streets now serve as refuse dumps.

The most affected is the epicenter of Ring Road. That spot houses the Benin National Museum. That location is where the water fountain constructed by the Oshiomhole administration is sited.

The Water Fountain that once attracted thousands of fun seekers to the Ring Road, Benin city, has completely decayed.

Nigeria's major problem have always been continuity and lack of maintenance culture... Infact our lack of maintenance culture is d major reason why we are still suffering infrastructural breakdown

Lol, that's what Edo citizens fell for... Even the royal bats don run leave ring road. grin



BTW, I thought Adams Oshiomole had more strength than that.... grin After just 2 hot rounds with the DSS he ran away to America with his tail between his legs to catch his breath.

Real leaders Like Ayo Fayose have courage, staying power,strength and stamina. They stand and they fight. Only rogues and cowards like Oshiomole run.

To buy/build is not an issue with us but to maintain is the real issue.

Oshiomole is actually a fool. There are better things 200m could have done in Edo State. In Ekpoma, you can hardly get water to drink

This is what I say here.. All of them are the same.. It is like a curse.. Once u get there, u must steal. It is like thay becus if the way the country is structured..

People must steal to win election and when they will the election, they must steal back to pay back what they stole..

Any ways, if u are interested in learning how to earn money online, kindly check out my profile and read my thread on how I make money online.

Freelancing is growing all over the world. It remains one of the best ways to earn side or full time income. To do well as a freelancer, u must learn competitive skill, learn to brand your self, package your brand and send out compelling proposals..
Well, I can teach u all these if u are interested.. Check my profile and read my thread on freelancing..
