…Says Osisioma Ngwa Communities Abandoned, Road Now a Death Trap
Comrade Pen Caleb has faulted Governor Alex Otti’s administration over the condition of Ekeakpara Road in Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area, questioning the government’s claim of inclusive governance and accusing it of hypocrisy.
CDA News Nigeria reports that in a post on his verified Facebook page, Pen Caleb alleged that the uncompleted Ekeakpara Road has become a death trap for the people of Osisioma Ngwa, including residents of the Umuojima Road area.
CDA News Nigeria gathered that he questioned the rationale behind what he described as the half-hazard Ekeakpara Road and presented a live video showing the poor condition of the road, which he said contradicts official portrayals of progress.
He maintained that there is much hypocrisy in Governor Otti’s government, alleging that Kepukepu TV only recorded the small section of the road that had been surfaced with asphalt, describing it as a deception designed to mislead the public.
The statement raises fresh questions about the inclusion of Ndi Ngwa in the administration, with Pen Caleb asking: “Where is the inclusion of Ndi Ngwa in your administration? Where is one Abia in your administration?”
The intervention adds to the growing debate over the spread of infrastructure development across Abia State’s local government areas, with critics arguing that visible progress has been concentrated in select areas while communities like Osisioma Ngwa continue to contend with impassable roads.
CDA News Nigeria reports that the statement did not include a response from the Abia State Government, and the specific claims about the road’s condition and the video referenced have not been independently verified.
