Flooded bad road in Edo traps Governor Obaseki’s convoy for hours (Video)
The convoy of Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, was trapped at the RCC junction on Sapele Road, Benin, Edo State after heavy rain flooded the bad road and made it unpassable.
A trending video of the incident that occurred on Friday showed how the Governor’s exotic cars got stucked in the muddy road.
A background voice recording the incident urged viewers to share the video to show that it is payback time for leaders who fail to take needed action to help the people.
Cars in the Governor’s entire convoy, including his official vehicle, a bulletproof Lexus LX 570 SUV, were seen stuck in the middle of heavy flood due to bad roads.
In a statement released on Sunday, Governor Obaseki confirmed he was stranded on Sapele road due to the flooding.
He said, “I was on Sapele Road recently, after the heavy downpour, the road was impassable. What is going on in Benin-Sapele Road is scandalous.
“I don’t think that any region where the oil resources that sustain the country come from should be neglected.
“We have done everything possible. We don’t know what to do again to draw the attention of the federal government to these roads.”
