The Sorry State Of Benin-lagoss Expressway (photos) by luckygeee(op): 11:12am On Apr 10, 2019
This is a portion of the Benin-Lagos road located at Ishihor Benin city directly opposite the Army school of Supply and transport S&T barracks Isihor. this bad road usually leaves many commuters stranded especially after a heavy downpour as many drivers will bluntly refuse to take that routes for fear that their buses would be damaged. many vehicles have been damaged in this portion of the road and only a brave few would dare to take that risk.
Shops and business owners cited along the expressway have been made to count their losses as that road is inaccessible by customers. even the popular Megom bar and Osunpec filling station can only enjoy services during dry season and the latter has since closed its business.

DANGERS!!!
Many drivers in other to avoid this bad and over flooded portion of the road have decided to take the ONE WAY route which has claimed the lives of many road users. even the soldiers in the barracks are guilty of taking this ONE WAY route that led to the death of a female UNIBEN student some years ago.

APPEAL!!!
We therefore call on the Federal Government and the ministry of work to come to the aid of road users and make sure that a proper drainage system is constructed. we plead that enough life has been lost already and a lasting solution be carried out.

please lets make sure this appeal gets to front page so the neccessary agencies will be aware!!!

Re: The Sorry State Of Benin-lagoss Expressway (photos) by Nobody: 1:54pm On Apr 10, 2019
Put a toll gate after fixing the road...and use the money raised to fix and keep the road in good repair.

It is the only realistic solution.

This particular portion of the road has been an eye sour for years now, The state government should cone in and do the road, Benin residents suffer more than those travelling from Lagos to the east on the said road....Lot of roads needs attention in Benin, most of the roads lack basic drainages...

Erosion on Lagos road is quite historical. Thanks to Jonathan during oshiomohle administration, who revamped uselu-Lagos road. Erosion velocity there used to drive away taxis in those days. As a youth corper in 2003, I witnessed one which sacked almost every resident in that area, up to uselu market.
