The leader of Recover Nigeria Project, Mr. Osita Obi said the group decided to embark on the protest to bring to the knowledge of the government the plight of road users, recalling that many lives had been lost in the area due to the bad road.

According to him, the portion did not require so much to be fixed, wondering why the government had left it for many years.

Obi said: “The governors use this road, senators and top politicians from Anambra and beyond all use this road, yet they pretend not to see this spot. Articulated vehicles often find it difficult to maneuvre the bad spot, which is why several accidents have happened here.”

Intimidation of the Judiciary capable of breeding anarchy – Obi

He urged the state and federal governments to immediately commence work on the failed portion of the road, warning that failure to heed the plea would force his group to return for a bigger protest.

Anambra State Commissioner for Transport, Mr. Uchenna Okafor who addressed the group on behalf of Governor Willie Obiano said although it is a federal road, the state government had plans for its immediate repairs.
