Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, and his official convoy recently faced a challenging situation as they got trapped in a heavy flood after a rainfall in the state. A video circulating online captured the moment a resident of the state made a mockery of the governor and his team as they struggled to move away from the flooded road.
In the video, the man expressed his frustration over the state of the roads in Edo State, accusing the administration of neglecting the construction of good roads. He lamented that the masses have been suffering while the authorities have turned a blind eye to the calls for road repairs.
The traffic on Benin Sapele Road at the RCC axis was particularly affected by the bad portions of the road, leading to the difficult situation faced by Governor Obaseki’s convoy. Despite the numerous pleas for the road to be fixed, the authorities have reportedly not taken any action, exacerbating the challenges faced by the residents in the state.
The incident has sparked criticism and raised concerns about the state of infrastructure and the need for prompt action to address the road conditions in Edo State. As the video continues to circulate online, it serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining and upgrading essential infrastructure to ensure the safety and convenience of the public.
