The people of Umuhu, Ubahuezike, okija in Ihiala Local Government Council of Anambra State, have cried out to Governor Willy Obiano over the deplorable condition of some portions of Nkwo-Okija road which connects the town to major cities in the state.

The community lamented that the condition of the roads is negatively impacting on the economic life of the people. During heavy down pour, floods often wash away their cultivated farm crops thereby causing food evacuation and unnecessary stand still in the local community.


In fact, on a typical rainy day, commercial and social activities are completely shut down in Umuhu as the roads are flooded making it impossible for access into the popular Nkwo Market, Health centers and banks. Motorists have virtually abandoned the road as a result of the damage their vehicles sustain on the road

All communal efforts to provide palliative had not worked because the scope of the damage on the road is huge and well above the scope of community effort; it needs quality and expert action, which the government can provide.

The community have sent a Save Our Soul to Governor Willy Obiano to intervene to save the people from impending disaster as the flood resulting from the bad condition of the road poses serious threat to some residents in the community.


There's further plea to the Governor Obiano on the need to open up rural roads that connect the community with neighbouring communities of Eziagu, Ezira, Isulo for ease of transporting their farm produce to enhance their economy.

Great youths, useless leaders...

Lalasticlala; can you please move this post to Frontpage? . I can confirm to you that the condition of the road is extremely bad.
Umuhu is my home town and i grew up there before leaving for onitsha. Our people are suffering.

I thought that road was among the roads awarded to either Akachukwu Nwamkpo or someone else but an Okija indigene. The one that connect Umuatuegwu, Ihiete and Isieke has been abandoned as well

Na wa o

Very bad situation to be in

Usless government

The Truth Is That They Can't Fix It All, But They Would Just Try Doing Their Best, I Hope Thier Best Try Would Just Bring The Road To Government Attention.

Hmmm

Every state in Nigeria has a place like this.
Development is a process; Obiano cannot do everything

So he should take forever to take up responsibility for a project that will cost less than the chunk of money they store for their selfish needs?

Why should the SE have any bad road ?

Well done, the people of Okija! They are good ambassadors of Nigeria.

So so s very true. But their embezzlement is the reason for most of the slow progress. Every sector is witnessing wat that road is witnessing. So when will the country grow when they keep acting snail-like?
