LETTERS to the
Iwonder how long it is going to take the contractor and FCT administration to complete the Apo-Karshi road. Road users travelling between the two places are compelled to go the long hug through AYA, causing a lot of traffic congestion, but as usual, those responsible for the completion of that road are just relaxing. It is rather a shame for them to be so dormant when they actually have a task at hand. In a country where government works, that road should have been completed by now, but in Nigeria, nobody cares, except to persistently amass wealth at the expense of the masses.

At a time when many Nigerians are crying of unemployment, a man set out to establish a business outfit which engaged many unemployed people. Then, one day, someone deemed it wise to destroy it. The demolition of the structure housing the Fresh FM in Ibadan is a very disturbing development because apart from the broadcast outfit reducing unemployment, especially in this situation where many young Nigerians are looking for jobs, it amounts to an attempt to suppress the will of the media in playing social, informational, educational and entertaining roles in society. The demolition of the outfit is a shameful act by whoever did or ordered it, just as it is a big minus for the state government. The thing left for them is to not only come out openly to tender an unreserved apology and rebuild the structure with all the equipment but also pay adequate compensation to the owner for the act.
