WORKS MINISTER CALLED TO TRAVEL FROM LAGOS TO ABUJA BY ROAD TO SEE HOW NIGERIANS SPEND 2DAYS ON THE ROAD DUE TO DEPLORABLE CONDITIONS OF ROADS.
HORROR AS LAGOS TO ABUJA NOW TAKES TWO DAYS….WORKS MINISTER SHOULD TRAVEL... I just got back from a trip to Abuja. I had very nearly driven in a private car to the FCT for an assignment but at the last moment, i changed my mind and in hind sight i am very grateful to God that i didn’t drive. You all know that i love driving but with what i experienced on the trip, i’m still in shock and recovering from …..bus-lag and body-ache. My first bewilderment was to discover that the bus left the usual Lagos-Ibadan-Osun route and headed for Lagos-Ogun-Ondo-Ore route. We now entered Akure town and bursted out to their airport, then to the expressway before continuing on the usual route to Ibillo. I also noticed that the driver made a detour and took a back road then we soon came upon a bad portion and he stubbornly beat other cars lined up and put the bus through hell in passing the bad spot. We made it and continued on our way to Abuja. I got to Abuja and made a feeble attempt to return by
