Viral video: A Scene Of Flooded Federal Road In The Oil Rich Niger Delta.
By Ebor Cletus Ralph Jr.
What you would be seeing in this video Is a scene from a potion of the famous East-West Road. Precisely, this is the Ahaoda axis of the road.
To get to Ahaoda from Bayelsa State end, you now need a boat or canoe. Alternatively, you may have to swim. Can you imagine this in Nigeria in the 21st century?
The situation gets more nauseating given the fact that, the oil resources which drive the ostentatious life style of Nigerian politicians derives from this region. In addition, the proceeds from oil theft that had happened over the decades could have averted this situation or at least, ameliorate it.
But, what do you have, it all ends up in the private pockets of political leaders and their collaborators in military cum maritime services.
