This is a very important announcement! Why would they build this thing that is k!lling many road users and nothing concrete has been done about it for years now!

Gather youths from the area and Quietly smash that nonsense to bits late at night. Una dey wait for Govt wey no get sense.

Who can explain this to these people bcos I'm ashamed seeing this video and what I'm reading d comment sect'n. This shows dat u guys r still not civilized. 1. this is a dual lane with a diversion for entry n exit. 2. D marking also indicate that. 3. Stop overspeeding.

These reflective signs and flood lights will solve this problem. The road design is not the issue. Also paint it black and white

That's why it's important to go driving school and know the rules of driving and road marking. There's marking infront of that structure which any driver that went to a driving school knows what that means. The state government and the engineers should have atleast mount a beep light there to safe lives.

Oh c'mon! first 10 secs of the video gives your answer. Driving school is not a scam

There is nothing inherently wrong with the road pavement itself. However, many drivers in Nigeria do not fully understand proper driving practices, including road markings and traffic signs. For example, the motorcyclist is riding over the striped pavement markings, which are not meant to be used that way. That said, if the pavement is not properly marked with clear road markings, signage, or reflectors to indicate its purpose, especially at night then the construction company responsible should be held accountable and could be sued.

They did it on purpose, to sacrifice some road users blood ...Even this video will not change anything.

My God, and someone inspected and approved this. Which kind wahala be this one. Nna ehhh…who do us as black man.

What kind of demonic and devilish road construction is that? Ahhh God of mercy abeg you guys should look for the contractor or engineer and cut off his manhood! He is a failure of an engineer...

There no active road furniture on most Nigerian roads this one inclusive except road marking. What shld be there are delineators, solar cat eyes& reflective caution signage to enable night users, they just build rds mark it and go with exception of Anambra & few others

The question to ask is, is there a road sign 🛑 that indicates the ahead sharp bend, even the paint they road should tell you about the assis, I wonder how people get driving license without passing driving exam.

We should be educating drivers on traffic rules and signs instead. There is nothing wrong with the road, there are enough marking on the road. What I suggest is road lights.

This just shows that many of us don’t know road signs or how to drive, that lane is for turning right into the other road, unless there’s no markings or road signs before the junction indicating that the lane is for right turns only and not a forward lane.

The contractor smoke?

That road is a dual carriageway and the motorists crashing on that section are moving against traffic. Why has the road been converted to a two-way road? Is it because the opposite lane is bad or under construction? which ever is the case, the state and @FRSCNigeria should act.

The positioning of that is very wrong

The situation under consideration is fundamentally attributable to two principal systemic deficiencies: The first pertains to the absence of coherent road signage and the failure to adhere to established engineering and safety standards within the Nigerian road infrastructure. At a minimum, the location in question ought to have been equipped with clearly visible, reflective advance direction signs indicating the presence of an upcoming exit. From a highway design perspective, it is equally indefensible that such an outcrop or structural protrusion should exist within the carriageway or immediately contiguous to it without adequate demarcation or protective measures. Standard highway engineering practice would require appropriate channelisation, signage, and, where necessary, physical barriers to mitigate collision risk. This issue is further compounded by the chronic inadequacy of traffic control measures. One must critically interrogate whether any advance warning signage was present, whether it was positioned in accordance with visibility standards, and whether it remained unobstructed. Empirical experience across several Nigerian urban centres, including Enugu, suggests a recurring pattern of obscured, poorly maintained, or altogether absent road signs. Instances where road thugs like MOT penalise motorists for allegedly breaching indistinct or invisible road markings, often faded, poorly positioned, or concealed by commercial signboards, reflect not merely administrative inefficiency but a deeper systemic dysfunction. The statutory mandate of the @FRSCNigeria is to ensure highway safety through regulation, standardisation, and public education; however, in practice, its operational posture is frequently perceived as disproportionately focused on checkpoint enforcement for extortion rather than infrastructural safety compliance. Moreover, the broader issue of construction standards cannot be overlooked. The apparent lack of government regulatory oversight enables substandard road construction practices, characterised in some state like Enugu, Ogun and Anambra, by paper-thin layers of asphalt and poor durability. Such deficiencies are indicative of weak institutional enforcement of engineering specifications and quality assurance protocols. The second issue concerns the systemic inadequacy of driver education and compliance with traffic laws. There exists a lack of formal driver training, with many Nigerian drivers lacking even a rudimentary familiarity with our Highway Code. This knowledge gap is worsened by the physical absence or visual obstruction of traffic signs, often covered by informal advertisements, religious banners, or event notices, which further undermines the communicative function of road signage systems. Consequently, responsibility must be understood as distributed across multiple actors. Governmental failure to enforce infrastructural standards creates hazardous road environments, while regulatory bodies fail to ensure the proper installation and maintenance of critical safety signage. Simultaneously, driver behaviour, particularly non-compliance with basic road safety principles, contributes to the overall risk profile. It is also necessary to situate driver behaviour within the broader socio-security context. Night-time driving practices, including elevated speeds, are often influenced by legitimate concerns regarding highway insecurity, including robbery and kidnapping. In such circumstances, speed is perceived as a defensive mechanism rather than mere recklessness. This reflects a wider @NGRPresident failure in ensuring public safety, which indirectly shapes road user behaviour. In country, where defections and bigotry are the important criteria for National growth and development.

That is very dangerous, and the most dangerous I have seen. What were the engineers (road contactor and supervisor) thinking... 😳 It's a trap on a highway.

My God!

the problem is that there is no proper road marking indicating that it is there

Do federal ministry of works carry traffic police n road safety people along during designing and construction ? Does both agencies know and advise the contractors ?

Saw this a couple years ago. It’s unfortunate that nothing has been done about it. Shows how much we value human life in this part of the world

Useless Engineering

Nigeria don't read road signs why driving there is nothing wrong with the thing been there.

Poor design

The road users are illiterates because the road is clearly marked and if the road users stay in thier lane there will be no accidents. The road has no issues

Abi na to stand for road to take egunje and pursue cars dem only sabi ?

But se residents for that area no get big hammer or Abi them no sabi use hammer kurisie that nonsense then use broom and packer sweep it into the bush☹️?

What stop the government or the contractor adding street light on such express road how will this place be dark at night with such obstruction this will cause so many road accident

This is what happens when jobs are done without proper impact assessment..regrettably, even when users complain, our system is so rigid that no one will listen or act on our complains

RCC messed up though it had a shiny warning which hasn’t been maintained overtime,they should just cut it off.

Do you know if you remove it, cars will go and hit vehicle makeing a right turn into the express way. Anyone driving straight and following the road marking should not hit that

White and black painting will solve the problem.

I have observed a lot of the roads being constructed lately have this same designs,I don't know if to call it an error or not but if you drive from Kano towards kaduna at night you will find similar diversions protruding onto the main road.
