Wow, we all forget Delta state has the most paved/tarred roads in the country. There is virtually paved and good roads in every town in the state connecting streets like dot com. Villages in Delta will even go head-to-head with some cities in the country in terms of paved/good roads hands down. |

Nigerian roads are rubbish. But i thank democrazy cause they are trying now. I have been to about 8 states in 9ja. Lagos is the worst and abuja is the best i have seen but not to be compared with cities like johannesburg etc. I made a short trip to mozambique from south africa of a journey of about 6-7 hours and i never saw a single pot hole in the road. I was determined to have a reason to equate the road with the one we have in 9ja but i couldn't. I can bet anything with anyone who wants to prove me false that if he sees a single pot hole in the road let him win. This is outside town. In the main town here, individual can sue the agency handling road maintenance and they will pay a heavy fine, so for that very reason, no pot hole can last 2 days. But this guys can make suprises. Just few day ago, the place we are staying here got it road retiled not because it has pot holes or spoilt but they felt they road is old. Contractor here are paid when they finish their work and inspection prove it worth it so basically, they do excellent work and it can't be rejected. Operation 9ja must change |

Just Go to SA then you will know there are no Good roads in Nigeria, maybe ABUJA is close. |
Re: Cities With The Best Roads In Nigeria by usanieja(m): 9:47am On Apr 20, 2012 |
Calabar, this is one city in modern day Nigeria that started building roads with good drainages and pavements, apart from Abuja, i believe all other Governors emulated this from Donald Duke particularly most southern Governor |

Abuja and some Northern States |
Re: Cities With The Best Roads In Nigeria by realistic1(m): 10:23am On Apr 20, 2012 |
Yeah, but what is your criteria for judging the best roads in Nigeria? Permits me to say that at the moment there isn't not one road in 9ja that is standard for the human race, take for instance of a major road in Nigeria, Has no safety precaution, No demarcations No roads barriers No Zebra crossing Speeds limits indications No rapids response units on major or minor roads Signs and danger warning etc. but to mention a few for that reasons I would say that what we've been giving isn't enough to be called road network in Nigeria, if not we will call our freedom fighter Fela a liar for saying that no road, no food, no education, no government, no nothing in 9ja, only wahala, problems, patriot or death............. |

I had to go look for my old phone to get these pictures This is in JIGAWA, between Dutse and Gumel, I was so fascinated with the quality of the road, the scenery, I just had to take pictures, goodness, I even saw a herd of camels!! Imagine long stretch of road like this for almost 2 hours? When I get one of my new cars, I will bring them here to "break-in" the engine

Re: Cities With The Best Roads In Nigeria by FlyboyZee: 12:32pm On Apr 20, 2012 |
Without mincing words, I think It is Uyo But Abuja's roads are the best but its Federal all through. I will still give it to Uyo 'til further notice. |

usanieja: Calabar, this is one city in modern day Nigeria that started building roads with good drainages and pavements, apart from Abuja, i believe all other Governors emulated this from Donald Duke particularly most southern GovernorThat was then, but this is now. Roads in Calabar are depreciating fast and nobody I repeat, NOBODY is doing anything about them. I have been traveling round the Country (except for the North: West & East) for the better part of the later part of last year and have seen many good roads spring up in certain cities while some roads are depreciating and left unattended to in some cities. |
Re: Cities With The Best Roads In Nigeria by Ess: 12:49pm On Apr 20, 2012 |
ABUJA has the best in the whole of Nigeria. NORTHERN states carry the next best... Me think SS (despite their huge allocation and 13% derivation) and SE has the worst roads esp Aba with just a single dead-road , you wouldn't want to be on it during rainy season! Been to many states in Nigeria. |
Re: Cities With The Best Roads In Nigeria by Afam4eva(m): 12:54pm On Apr 20, 2012 |
All commercial cities in Nigeria eg Lagos, Aba, Onitsha, Port-hacourt have bad roads. |

Re: Cities With The Best Roads In Nigeria by Slizbeat(m): 4:37pm On Apr 20, 2012 |
Criously wen u talk of roads, kano shud b best apart 4rm abuja cos roads r meant to b built where they av impt rather dan where they dnt lyk in akwa-ibom. Dat also applies to anambra, imo, jigawa nd kaduna, they ol built roads where they av impt xcept dat anambra neva did d mst impt road wich z 4rm onitsha to awka. As 4 lagos, they r tryin bt nids more effort rather than concerntrating on lagos island alone. |
Re: Cities With The Best Roads In Nigeria by BabaTony: 6:11pm On Apr 20, 2012 |
@ slitzbeat To say roads buit in AKS are built were there are not needed tells me that u don't understand the state at all. |
