and the road started getting worse, it rose to #100 (hundred naira only). But as i type, the motorist here charge as much as #300 (three hundred naira) and a few others #400 (four hundred naira) from Umudibia Nekede to Owerri capital city..
one of the best seminary Bethel and a whole lot of other public and private establishments, yet the government hasn’t deemed it fit to fix this road for good.
After the days of Sam Mbakwe, Imo State has not been blessed with good leadership.
Imo has been cursed ever since with terrible governors.
Imo has one of the worse road networks in Nigeria.
