For years, Nigeria's roads were on life support. Many newly constructed roads deteriorated shortly after they were completed, often because they were not built to last. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration is taking a different approach by constructing roads designed to serve Nigerians for generations.
Yet, some people criticize these projects while visiting locations where previous administrations merely patched failing roads and left them in deplorable conditions, using those images to claim that nothing is being done.
Shame!
What about the thousands of kilometres of roads currently under construction and reconstruction across the country? Visit those sites as well. Take pictures of the progress and appreciate Mr. President for the work being done.
The way forward is to support and promote initiatives that benefit Nigeria. People, including His Excellency Peter Obi, should visit locations where roads are being constructed or have been completed, take pictures of these transformative projects, and share them on social media while acknowledging the efforts of Mr. President.
Before President Tinubu completes his second term, Nigeria's road infrastructure will have undergone significant reconstruction to stand the test of time.
