Heavy downpours washed away the Ochanja market road constructed by Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s administration.

The road leading to the market located in the Onitsha South local government area of the state was allegedly constructed barely one week ago.

A video that was shared on social media by a user identified as Onyebuchi Nwafor showed the coated asphalts piled out with pieces scattered and water-logged on some parts of the road.

He captioned the video, “Wonders they say shall never happen, but unfortunately, it happened.

“Prof Chukwuma Soludo’s one-week-old Road washed away in a split second.

“The ‘Dubai-Taiwan’ Ochanja market road in Onitsha constructed with billions of Anambra taxpayers’ money has just been washed away by just one episode of 20 minutes rainfall on Monday, 25th of March, 2024

“The rainfall exposed the nature of poor quality jobs executed by the government.

“Just a few weeks ago, at the same Ochanja Market, a storey-building under construction by the same government collapsed, killing an unknown number of people.

“By the time the rainfall is fully established in June, more poorly executed construction by the Anambra State Government could be laid bare for the blind to see.”

The government has yet to react to the viral video.
