We are live in Calabar the capital city of Cross River state where a terrible accident just happened and we can confirm that the driver is not dead but is in critical condition fighting for his life.

The problem of decayed infrastructure has been a measure problem in Nigeria and most African countries.
Roads that were meant to serve as a means of movement and transportation have turned to death traps. reports have it those road accidents are responsible for most annual death in Nigeria and a greater percent of this is due to bad roads.


A case of this is a portion of the Yellow Duke street, Calabar South, Cross River State. A portion of this road has been greatly affected by gulley erosion, The part directly above the sewage has been cut away by rain erosion and is slowly taking a greater part of the road.


Yesterday night, the worst happened as a car fell into a cut part of the road
A Toyota Camry saloon car, yesterday night, fell into the ditch created by the gully erosion. As at the time of gathering this information, the source of the accident was unknown but rumors had it that it was a case of poor driving. The car capsized into the pitch with the roof of the car being horizontal.


Asking an eye witness who goes by the name Kufre and stays close to where the accident happened has this to say:

“This road has been repaired several times, and each time they get it fixed, it becomes worst, I believe the reason why this road keeps getting worst is the fact that whoever is in charge of repairing the road is not using quality products or company to work this death trap”

Another witness has this to say:

It is partly the fault of the driver, I stay around and was awake when it happened, I heard a vehicle at full speed as if someone was after him and a bang sound followed, I believe he is a new person applying this road. We call on the government to help fix this road once and for all, this place has been a death trap for so long it is high time they look for a permanent solution to this.

let’s continue praying for Nigeria and hope the problem of infrastructure decadence is solved soon.

Hmm imagine how deep and big that ditch is... I guess he's not familiar with the area, the reason for the accident... This is what you see when you have a failed government

Cursed Nation!
