It's because they know many people will be traveling to the east during this period from different parts of the country and so they want to cash out. Check points and road blocks are usually very much during festive periods in the east

Too many criminal elements in the SE.

Sammy07:
It's also so in SW.

But I'm not sure if it's up to SE own

post=97508507:

you are exaggerating, from Awka to Onitsha is just one check point at Ukpor junction, Onitsha to our boundary with Imo is three Checkpoints on normal day, it's because of Yuletide they increase the numbers of police and road safety officials

Kinematics:
Too many criminal elements in the SE.

Omoslim26:


I am a criminal. Its because of our criminal activities we have so many road blocks in our SE region.

Osun has over 15 check points (main road ooo) if you're traveling from kwara to Ondo State.

infact in kwara state
you have some check points in ilorin, getting to idofian you'll see another one, to Ajase IPO you will about 6 check points down to Offa you'll see 3 check points from offa to okuku (in Osun) 3 - 4 check points.

okuku to Osogbo you'll see checkpoints.
Osogbo to Ondo or Ibadan checkpoints plenty.
These are just federal road I haven't made mention of Okuku to ila orangun to Oke ila orangun, Osogbo to ilesha to Akure, all those Esa Oke, Erin Ijesha, Iwo etc

But I'm not sure if it's up to SE own

Why Is This So In The South East?? I Need Explanation

So today I decided to travel to Owerri from onitsha for a business meeting, the journey was meant to be a 1hr30min journey or less, but the check point for such short distance was sooo much!!

Like literally every 1km of the road has checkpoint, it's so bad that from a particular check point, you can basically see another check point ahead.

Ranging from the Army to the police to FRSC. Basically every force is on the road and all of them including the army were collecting bribe from the drivers. I actually felt bad for the drivers because it was too much. I felt really disgusted as well because I expected them to distinguish themselves but no they didn't.

I guess this is why the transport rate here is on the high side.

Now I've spent 4hrs on the road due to traffic induced by these forces from blockage of the road

Last week I came back from Abuja to Anambra and the check point were few across the north and I kept wondering.

Is there insurgency in the SE or is the crime rate high here or what exactly is the cause of this excess checkpoints / extortion points

PDJT:
-Biafraland is an occupied territory by Nigerians and their forces. Today, we might not have an Ojukwu or a standing Army but one day we shall fight back through other means.

-Many of those armed robbers(Army, Police and FRSC) you saw on the road gave massive bribes in Abuja to be posted to our land of milk and honey. Those lazy fuckkers can’t survive without our money, neither can Nigerians.

The hausa fulani investments are much down in the south south, then oil exploration activities and igboland is like a corridor to the hen that lays the golden egg.

Fulani man no wan hear say oil no run

Sammy07:


Well judging from the way OP described it and I've seen a topic like this somewhere.

I think it's more on your side than this place.

DollarBuddy:
I thought we now have the ESN to meet Nigerian security forces to force.

Sometimes, as a region, it's our action that puts us in mess.

It is because igbos are rich so collecting small small on the road won't finish their money
