Concerns have been raised over the safety of motorists on some express roads in Abuja following allegations that scavengers are removing iron covers from road openings.
A video circulating on social media shows several uncovered openings along an Abuja express road after the metal covers were allegedly removed. The exposed holes could pose significant risks to motorists, particularly at night or in areas with poor visibility.
The situation has sparked concerns about the safety of road users, as motorists who fail to notice the openings could suffer accidents or damage to their vehicles.
Beyond the immediate danger to motorists, the incident has also raised questions about the protection and maintenance of public infrastructure. Authorities may need to investigate the reported removal of the covers, replace missing ones and strengthen measures to prevent further theft.
The allegations have continued to generate reactions online, with calls for relevant authorities to address the issue before it develops into a more serious road-safety problem.
