Hurray A'Ibom is 31
We've Come a long way.....

From on shore/ Offshore oil dichotomy,

To the oil Boom Era of Uncommon Transformation....!

From Uncommon Transformation to the Industrialisation Era!

Sadly all the Industrialization is happening in 1 Local government(Onna L.G.A) out of the 31 L.G.A of the State.

This is the Industrialization in my Area....

The government has forgotten about Urua Ekpa!
Abeg make we shun partial and cosmetic Industrialization and start from the Roots,
If not Boys go still de drive keke with Bsc/MSc.
Because half bread is better than egg roll

Despite receiving huge allocations...
Here's a road abandoned for years.
Economic and social activities are paralyzed

This road leads from Calabar ITU road to Uniuyo town campus.
Where is the Paris refund?

...and what did Godswill do for you people ?

This OP ehn . Every city has a slum. Are you jealous!? this looks like a typical village sef ooh my God! did i hear you mention paris club fund? ooh Jesus

I can personally verify the claims here and I'm not even an Akwa Ibomite (so as not to say I'm being partisan). Roads such as Udoette, Itu, Nelson Mandela, Urua Ekpa, and many others in the Itam axis are 100% terrible. These are not slums or villages. They form a central part of Uyo city. Infact, the University of Uyo campus in the city center directly borders on these roads.

Sometime ago, some contractors came to repair Nelson Mandela Road, and even made moves to tar a street off the road but after busybodying for some weeks, they abandoned the project.

Note that: Gov. Udom has been tarring roads in other parts of the city (notably the Oron road axis). However, he seems to be defiant on repairing the roads in the Itam axis. These are major roads which visitors may see and they don't tell good of the giant strides Akwa Ibom State has made. If only I could snap the roads here. What the OP posted is just a tip of the iceberg as he didn't snap the major roads. Itu Road is so bad that motorists have to take a longer route just to avoid the bad spots. These roads do not even need repairs or patching. They need complete overlay.

The road problem in the Itam axis of Uyo also manifests in the electricity supply. The outages and load shedding in the Itam axis is so bad that one cannot help but wonder how it got from being one of the best in Nigeria to its abysmal state.

You don't know Uyo, as obviated from your comment. I, therefore, do not see the rationale for your attack on the Op. Itu highway is different from Itu Road.

Secondly, nobody is comparing Akwa Ibom with Kogi. I am from Delta State and trust me, the worst roads in Uyo do not even come anywhere near some of the roads we have in Delta State. However, should the OP keep quiet about his ENTITLEMENT because others have it worse? NO!!! I feel he didn't even complain enough.

Next time, evaluate situations before you comment or just learn to move on without revealing your ignorance about certain situations. Good morning and have a nice day.

I don't know uyo, but I know calabar very well. What will you now say of my state the center of bad roads. Abia state. I figured out the problem. Sometimes it's the contractors that don't build good plan for the road there by causing it not to last long or using substandard material. You're in uyo, you should know that ikot ekpene road. Road is bad, congested and almost cutting away. I blame present, past FG

The OP is talking about state roads, not federal roads. And yes, there are bad roads generally in Nigeria. We can always add new ones to the list and that is what the Op just did.

60 percent of Lagos residents live in mud pans like this also

Propaganda everywhere you go.mcheew.

Nigeria have not reach the extent of not seeing this type of place again. We will get there but with time..


Talk of worst road, its the fed road from aba to portharcourt, I saw hell the last time I use that road.

...and what did Godswill do for you people ?

So you mean that akpabio that started building akwaibom roads should have finished all of the state before going down?

The governor must not carried all the project in the state in his first term,even here in rivers state the oyingbo rd is a dead trap but i knw that wike we fix it just gv the man some accolade

Oga, Akapbio did nothing. It is a fact we all acknowledge (except you want to deceive yourself ).

He has right to complain especially since his part of Nigeria is under Akwa Ibom State.

I served in A.ibom the state tried wen it comes to road network...

OP snapped just one area... Which even has road... The state is know for it rain, it can rain year round in AK.... In which the rain is one of the enemies of good roads.

A.ibom govt try abeg... U can't compare that state with most states in Nigeria when it comes to good roads.

You're so uninformed

Op, I want to ask you some questions.
How old is Akwa Ibom state?
Are there no bad roads in Lagos the former capital territory of Nigeria?
Do you know that Akwa Ibom state is a coastal state and it is likely for flooding during this raining season?
Pls leave my deal state alone.

I swear enough young graduate dey drive keke and bus for Uyo ennnn. No job for that state at all. People get 10K montly as salaries . If you are not a politician, close to a politician or a pastor in that state. Poverty will be your close friend .. but igbo boys are really making money from business in that state like kilode

Incase you don't know . This road is very very close to University of Uyo. And it's not a village. It's a town very very close to Uyo.

During akpabio time I can boastfully tell you that akwa ibome was the best state in south south. Akpabio made IBOM a London in Nigeria

Udom is a failure there is no point denying it... I can't point to any major project he has done in uyo
