In Nigeria roads could either be federal road or state road. I have never heard of local government road.

That you have never heard of local government roads don't mean they don't exist.

InBtw, the present structure of local government has some measure of autonomy but because many have been led to believe that they are useless, they ride that perception to continue in their docility.

We have to start holding all levels of government to account for true development to occur.

Ogun and Abia state are under a curse. They'll never fix their roads.

May God not allow them to know peace of mind until they fix the road from now till January 2021.

Happy New Month

Onlyonebuhari:
Those of you that have taken OBASANJO has your hero can now see. Just point to one single road that PDP did in 16years.
Buhari is a blessing to Nigeria when it comes to infrastructures.

But APC has also been in Ogun state for almost ten years now too

The work of local government in Nigeria has been paralysed. What the local government are doing mostly these days is to generate revenue for the state and mobilize voters for elections. To issue Certificate of origin...

They only time you see most staff of the local government is when the month is pregnant for a new Salary.

Serious projects are not given to LG anymore in fact some states don't have LG again but caretakers.

I support the restructuring and general overhaul of this feeding bottle administration practice by Nig.


Let each state be the architect of it own misfortune/fortune.

Ibadansun1:
Ogun state have some of the worst roads In south West Nigeria and the state makes the most money outside Lagos in the South West region of Nigeria.

Where are they spending their money?

In fact I don't understand. It's like all their administrators old and current are being cursed.

Doncyn:
Dat place is far more better Dan aba town, osisioma junction...

Forget about ibo bashing for a moment. Nothing is being done in Ogun State and it's a pity.

Jonasbadoo2:
Story for the gods
Sophiscated region indeed mtcheew

Trash!!! Ogun state folks and indeed southwesterners don't give a ratass about whatever happens in your region, unlike y'll pseudo liberators, always wanting to liberate others while they wallow in chains... Liberation kill una.

Local governments cannot be effective. They are too many and too poor. All the Chairmen can do is steal the little crumps left for them and embark on cosmetic insignificant projects.

Each local government is given #100million monthly by the Federal government. How then can you say they are are broke?

BigBrother9ja:
Ogun state has always been very unfortunate, just like Kogi and Abia, they've always been ruled by unfortunate, useless, greedy and foolish governors.
Even with all the revenues and all the excess fund spill they receive from Lagos constantly, the govenors just embezzles EVERYTHING!

USELESS OLD FOOLS.

Abia is the worst, people that has ruled that state is deadly corrupt, and even devil can do better than them, how i wish i can kill them.

Almost all the whole roads In Ogun state are bad..

FP

DAVE5:


Oga these roads you posted here are good roads nah

Abule egba to toll gate should be top 3 worst roads in Nigeria

Really? Can we have an evidence? And we will get to work ASAP

Ibikunle Amosun should be spared, if that man enjoyed another 4 years.. ogun state would have been totally better

Mobog:
Who went to snap the good aspect of the road for nairaland forum? Shit...those pictures you're seeing ehn if all that area is like this then it's very conducive.
Road like river...last weekend the bus I convey going to abk stopped in the middle of that water, I was swimming sincerely

You see! DAPO ABIODUN ! Do something to the BAD ROADS in OGUN STATE

jericco1:
Very appalling.
I went through such last year on my way to Ifo
I wonder what the fúck Dapo Abiodun is doing

You should start from that stupîd Gbenga Daniel and Ibikunle Amosun.
Those rogues needs to be jailed.

sofiscatedmoron:
Afonja morons are busy googling bad eastern road

It's a lie.
All I see is bitter OSU ipob jew pigs.

I don't agree with you at all.

On the contrary LGAs aren't poor. They can actually achieve way more than you can imagine, in terms of youth capacity building programs, security and basic infrastructural developments, and sanitation.

You want me to show you investments undertaken by persons who became LGA Chairmen for just under a year or slightly more?

This is where we get it wrong. This is the root of our problems as a nation. Why would anyone want to exonerate persons in charge of governments at the very lowest level?

The issue is; a chunk of these Chairmen are totally bereft of idea on how to generate fund, and are only wired to reep off the people of what already accrues to the LGA.

Every LGA Chairman is tasked with figuring out how to generate sufficient resources with which to better the lots of his people. They only know how to 'chop'. And that's where the issue lies.

They and the governors are the reason we are where we are today. Take it or leave it! The sooner we become smarter and choosier regarding who we make an LGA Chairman, the better for us all. We must come after these guys constructively and strategically, if Nigeria must get better. Even the campaign against police brutality that we all clamour could be extensively addressed by these Chairmen in their various LGAs. Enough of the irresponsibility and excuses for Council Chairmen.

I am disappointed that anyone would be holding the brief for someone elected to do a job, and who is woefully failing at doing it.

The fact that they are many....by that I mean everywhere, is the more reason to appreciate that they alone have the capacity and spread, to make or mar our society, both in terms of governance and development.

Same template all over the country

Sabadon:
i wonder why the hometown of most past leaders is nothing to write home about....

Jonathans otuoke ravaged by flood
OBJs sango na bad road,(better not walk tru sango wen it rains)
Buhari nko...insecurity

I love the way you carefully omitted Minna

Our leaders are all illitrates starting frm the day one to this government,it a real shame to have roads like this in this 21st century,obasanjo waisted 16 yrs of his life as president and nothing to write home about only self fish interest he can account for,woe betise who ever make nigeria like this.

ekestic1976:
General Olusegun Obasanjo, The Quintessential Administrator, the President who teaches his predecessors and successors The Art of Governance, the Only one who knows it all - he was a Nigerian PRESIDENT for EIGHT years, and twenty years or so earlier was a Military Head of State and Government of Nigeria! He's born and raised in Abeokuta, the Yoruba city which houses this EYESORE. For so long he reigned and ruled, he had no landmark achievement in his hometown! Know why? He destroys all structures including the God-made Man; he never builds!

Loolzzzz

So what about the present government?

This is the real potopoto region.

And some Nigga in some other thread below this one said we ought not to be celebrating Wike over a well constructed fly over

As the governor of this state has refused to tidy the roads or build flyovers, how many times has citizens of this state gone on a protest march at his government house


Unlike this Governor, Wike was benevolent enough to build flyovers
Therefore we will Thank Him.

Am surprised with the slow down sydrom of the govt

Why call local government.. In school allocation is shared within fed states and local.. But here its only fed and states the change left are given to local government... How did you think local government will be able to to do anything.

ignis:
It is myopic, pedestrian and ignorant reasoning to blame local government chairman for poor roads leaving the state government and federal government out of it. The local government architecture is not functioning in Nigeria leaving a lot of lacuna.
In Nigeria roads could either be federal road or state road. I have never heard of local government road.

We have tier A, B and C roads the C roads are the ones opened up by local councils

Is there actually poto poto in the west ?
