Dear Gov. @jidesanwoolu and @HonSeyiJakande, Ojuwoye Nursery and Primary School (Special), Mushin, urgently needs government intervention! From dilapidated facilities and inadequate security to staff shortages, lack of medical personnel, a school bus, and sign language interpreters, these children need urgent support. The time for @followlasg to act is now. Children with special educational needs deserve safety, dignity, and quality education not neglect. Their needs cannot wait. No child should be left behind! #Publicmoneymustworkfotthegoodofthepeople

Engr @DaveUmahi and Gov @HyacinthAlia, Benue people deserve better! The Adikpo–Ushongo–Ugbema Junction Road in Benue State has remained in a terrible condition for over two years, subjecting residents, commuters, and businesses to avoidable hardship. This is unacceptable! How long must communities endure economic losses, difficult journeys, and poor access to essential services while this road remains neglected? We call on the @FMWNIG and @benuestategovt to urgently inspect the road, and ensure immediate, effective rehabilitation. #GetInvolved

Dear Gov @jidesanwoolu and @HonSeyiJakande, we call for your urgent intervention on the deplorable condition of the Idi Oro-Mushin Road in Odi-Olowo/Ojuwoye LCDA, Lagos State, where the other lane has remained in a terrible state for over three years. The road is riddled with potholes, broken surfaces, stagnant pools of water, and heaps of refuse dumped along different sections. What should be a functional road serving residents, commuters and businesses has become a source of daily hardship, with serious implications for road safety, public health and economic activity. For over three years, motorists have had to navigate this deteriorated stretch, exposing their vehicles to damage, increasing maintenance costs and contributing to traffic congestion as drivers struggle to manoeuvre around damaged sections and waterlogged areas. Pedestrians are equally affected, forced to navigate unsafe, muddy and refuse-strewn surroundings. Beyond the damaged road surface, the persistent accumulation of refuse presents another serious concern. Different sections of the road have been turned into dumpsites, with waste left uncleared for weeks. Such conditions create an unsightly and unhealthy environment, potentially attracting pests, obstructing drainage channels, and worsening flooding risks during rainfall. The stagnant water and accumulated waste also raise concerns about sanitation and exposure to environmental health hazards. This is not merely an inconvenience; it is a public infrastructure and accountability concern. Residents deserve roads that are safe and passable, while businesses and commuters should not have to bear the consequences of prolonged neglect. Three years is far too long for a critical road corridor to remain in such a condition without a lasting solution. We call for urgent action and a public commitment to fixing the Idi Oro-Mushin Road. Lagos residents deserve functional infrastructure, a clean environment, and public services that work for everyone. CC: @followlasg @Mr_JAGs #GetInvolved

🚨 N59.47M PAID, YET KUNGANA BRIDGE REMAINS ABANDONED! Dear Engr. David Umahi and Governor Agbu Kefas, we urge you to intervene urgently! On 8 September 2024, N59.47million was paid to Shazumami Nigeria Ltd for the repair of Kungana Bridge along the Bali-Mararaba Road in Taraba State. However, our monitoring visit in September 2026 found the project abandoned for over a year, forcing motorists to use a narrow, potentially dangerous passage. Where is the work? What explains the prolonged delay? And when will the bridge be completed? As a project under the @FMWNIG, the public deserves clear answers and urgent action. Road users should not continue to bear the risks and inconvenience while a publicly funded project remains unfinished. We call on the relevant authorities to explain the delay, provide a definite completion timeline, and ensure the bridge is restored to safe use. #Publicfundsmustworkforthegoodofthepeople

Last month, through our HCDT awareness town halls, we engaged residents of Epie Zarama community, Yenagoa LGA, Bayelsa state to build understanding of the Host Community Development Trust established under the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) 2021. These engagements explore how the HCDT works, what communities are entitled to, and how residents can participate in decision-making and follow the money.

Governor @CCSoludo, and Anambra State Ministry of Works, look at the condition of Atani road in Ogbaru LGA! What should be a vital economic corridor is now a muddy nightmare, riddled with potholes and pools of stagnant water. The Afia Idemili Market and Obodoukwu sections have deteriorated since 2025, and every rainfall makes the situation worse. Traders, commuters, transporters and companies that depend on this road to move goods are bearing the brunt of this neglect. Movement is becoming increasingly difficult, while businesses and livelihoods are put at risk. Must residents and businesses continue to suffer before action is taken? We demand an urgent intervention, proper drainage and lasting rehabilitation of the affected sections. Governor @CCSoludo and the Ministry of Works, the evidence is right before us. Ogbaru cannot afford to wait any longer. FIX ATANI ROAD NOW!
