The attention of the Enugu State Government has been drawn to the wanton dismantling of its steel road barrier erected at Ikem-Obollo Eke junction, in Ogor Community, Isi-Uzo Local Government Area, by some youths in the area.

The road barrier was duly erected by the Ministry of Works and Infrastructure, to restrict articulated vehicles from plying the Ugwogo Nike-Ikem road, to safeguard the infrastructure and lives of the road s.
The state government, therefore, strongly condemns the uncivilized act of the perpetrators, which is at variance with the commitment of the present istration to provide quality infrastructure for the good people of Enugu State and protect them accordingly for the desired service.
Consequently, we ask those involved in the dismantling to re-install the barrier immediately or be ready to face the consequences of such unlawful act.
In view of the above, the government wishes to call on the security agencies to take adequate steps to ensure that its facilities are protected at all times.

Haaa.... Which kind wahala be this for this next level?

IGNORANCE! . I guess they do not know the meaning of such barriers, which includes

1. To prevent heavy duty trucks from plying the road that is not meant for them.
2. To protect life's and properties, etc

Good analysis .

They will want to claim that

1- the route available to trucks and articulated vehicles is too far off from town

2- that such prohibited vehicles are needed to bring goods to their doorsteps and shops.

This was installed to check heavy trucks plying that road. Why dismantling it?

Those wawa people in Enugu are stark illiterates.

Enugu is a stinking backward village.
Argue with your descendants

..and these ones will be calling the Northerners illiterate?

Ignorance. Warning the perpetrators when they should have already been picked up.

Lol

Youths and laziness , Bubu was right!

discussed toll gates



it won't work

North are more enlightened than southeast. Forget what you read online.

nonxo007:

The barrier is actually meant for good but what if that's the only road accessible to the village? Some times our contractors do bad job, they then apply barriers to save the road for the time bn....i expected to see alternative routes in the publication made by the said Government so as to convince and convey their motive properly ...

When you eventually know the difference between North and Northerner,we will then conveniently engage you.

Kukuma say Nigeria are intelligent too. Stupid tribalistic mofos making Nairaland unbearable for we sensible people.

Interesting

Some people who do not know anything will just jump into the comments section and be letting the latrine open.

What worthes doing at all, worthes doing very well.

As someone said above, some contractors who actually know that the project they executed can not stand the test of time, hence they put such barriers.

Again, there was a time a certain construction company constructed a Bridge at Slaughter in Trans Amadi Portharcourt, there was such barrier so as to prevent heavy duty from plying the Bridge, the barrier was killing people time after time, some one might be on an open vehicle like Hilux, the vehicle being on a speed lane, as it gets to the Bridge, the person or persons sitting on the back of the Hilux, before you know what's on, the bar has cut his or her head.

This is a pure statement of fact, most people in Enugu state are ignorant illiterates. Even when the govt is trying to save lives they prefer to be adamant. This is why the state is the most backward state today in SE and SS.. Even mxrep can confirm this.

Backward state ke... Is there any state in SE that is more developed than Enugu aside from Anambra.
