I was in Nigeria in 1962 working for the Bank of West Africa (BWA) now First Bank. I was on transfer from Lagos to Aba and drove all the way in my Vauxhall Victor LC6547. Asaba was just a few huts on the banks of the Niger and there was NO bridge just a small ferry boat. It could only take a few cars and a mammy waggon. After half an hour we reached Onitsha and I drove up the river bank and followed the road signs to Aba. I think I had a map but of course NO Satnav or mobile phones.Sixty years ago. I am now retired and live in England.

[@favour_oparah]

Wow I really imagined how it looked in the oldies 😅 I think you should try and visit nigeria soon so you’d see the changes in real life

[@louismacquoid161]

Did you drive through Effurun/Warri then?? How was it?

[@charlesugochukwu9283]

Wow! From just a few huts decades ago to a big thriving city today. I wonder what other cities looked like back then; cities like Aba, Onitsha, Owerri! If only I could have pictures

[@giftoparah7599]

For a city as big as asaba in nigeria to look like this....i really dont know what to say honestly

[@favour_oparah]

This country really needs serious makeover

[@donwilliams4879]

Capital city 😢

[@nickssmoke6540]

#1, you didn't show asaba (main) but the out sketch of asaba. #2, the main reason for the construction of a flyover is to ease traffic, so let it finished. #3, the interchange also will be constructed so be patient.

[@favour_oparah]

If you watched to the end, you’d see that I covered other parts of asaba Yes am glad that you agree with me, but how long would it take to be completed🤷‍♀️ Alright if you say so

[@elsonusifo3510]

The motive of ur video not pure u failed to show the roads and even beautiful areas

[@favour_oparah]

Correction taken, I’d do that on my next visit

[@elsonusifo3510]

U probably don't stay In delta state.. the fly over at coca is still being constructed when it's completed the road around it wud be worked on and that place wud be a beauty .. hope u come and do ur video to see the massive transformation

[@favour_oparah]

Oh alright,noted📝 Thank you

[@Bideksjoi]

This is so fustrating ☹️btw you are so beautiful fav_oprah.i really love your personality.feels so good to connect with you.sending lots of luv❤️

[@favour_oparah]

Thank you 🤭🥰 Same here🤗

[@TheSunnySlimEffect]

Mediocritic cities we have in nigeria i was in asaba its could ave been better than this if not curruption ....well the shoprite area summit road are good why did u not video those areas ....not this trashy side if d city😅

[@favour_oparah]

I will make another video of those areas soon☺️

[@uchejoseph2344]

This is not Asaba i use to know, Asaba is so beautiful before, it use to be better than Onitsha but now i don't know between Onitsha and Asaba which one is better now, is really bad. Delta state gets big from 13% oil deviation, please all the money going to. This is not Asaba i used to know.

[@favour_oparah]

It’s just lack of maintenance but asaba is still beautiful 😍

[@marisaosas7021]

Nothing like city in nigeria

[@favour_oparah]

Lol 😂 really?

[@kinzoogbugo1891]

U did not scratch the surface of Asaba. You did not even enter the town Lol.

[@favour_oparah]

Noted!

[@Feggytv]

Okowa is such a big thief..he did obsoletely nothing for the state in general., just see a state capital 😢

[@favour_oparah]

It’s improving as of recently

[@sirainilawal]

Does this flood affect the bus route going to Lagos? I saw a video of flood from Asaba-Ugbolu. It covers the expressway that leads to Ugbolu from Asaba

[@favour_oparah]

Yeah a part of it affects that Lagos route

[@yechi-tv477]

My Asaba ooo... This flood ehh is terrible. So many properties lost 😞

[@favour_oparah]

It still leaves me speechless but it is well😫

[@mikepeace9751]

But, during the time of Emmanuel Uduagham, this flood was never a problem, Ifeanyi Okowa is just a mess to the beautiful State of Delta, simple.

[@jude-francisanisha7747]

Didn't you see that the fly over is still under construction and what roundabout are you talking about. Nawa ooo

[@favour_oparah]

I think you dint watch the video well cos I said so too

[@charlesugochukwu9283]

Asaba looks unimpressive for a city of its stature. It’s not some obscure, remote city yet it looks no better than a small town.

[@favour_oparah]

It’s improving now though

[@muhammadabdulkareem4595]

To be honesty, I was so shy to see asaba as big city like that, Kaduna is so so underrated still looking we are not doing good, but when i'm looking over somes states its felt enough for our governor(el-rufa'i)our road,infrastructure,green spaces, scenery is far better,, asaba government need to do more, appreciate ur effort 🤗

[@favour_oparah]

Wow I’d like to visit kaduna soon to see how the city looks☺️ Thank you so much for sharing 🥰

[@muhammadabdulkareem4595]

@@favour_oparah we're welcoming with everybody with harmony and hospitality, firstly you should search ada unleashed" in her KZbin channel, she was show how Kaduna city look like in 2022 and the showprite under construction, u would verry amaze

Hey Rukky🤗

[@DishedbySandra]

I enjoyed every second of this video 👏🏽👏🏽

[@favour_oparah]

Thank you so much ☺️

[@Bellamauricevlog]

Nobody in my community as we speaks 😢😢😢 flood everywhere 😢 may God help us

[@favour_oparah]

Omg this is so bad, where is your community located?? Is it in asaba or lokoja?

[@Bellamauricevlog]

@@favour_oparah I posted it on my channel, Delta state: Ibedeni, Ndokwa east LGA

[@mikeuche7403]

Point of correction The round about you are talking about is still under construction. They are also building an over-head cross over bridge above that round about that is why the traffic there is quite much... Asaba doesn't have lots of companies like you mentioned. The crime rate in Asaba very low compared to other states

[@favour_oparah]

I said so in the video, it seems you didn’t watch for long buh anyways correction noted📝

[@stevenbrian2289]

Good road and proper drainage system is a concern in Delta state.

[@diokamichaelfaith4345]

It was like a nightmare driving through Asaba immediately after it rained.The road had potholes and was covered by rain.

[@favour_oparah]

Yeah very true, I think this is also attributed to some other parts of Nigeria

[@ifeanyiugwuanyi6007]

Cos most of the leaders have underperformed, they were unable to maintain the available roads let alone constructing new ones. They just succeeded in ruining their state's into debt.

[@favour_oparah]

It is well!

[@dove6731]

Thank you so much for your efforts to show the world how the city of Nigeria is fairing . God have mercy on the people who are extremely suffering because of the floods .

[@favour_oparah]

Amen 🙏, thank you so much for appreciating my work

[@NosakhareAbrams]

Lol, which side of asaba is this?? Last time I visited asaba it was very beautiful. I did not see all this dirty and pot hole?

[@favour_oparah]

The area closer to onitsha

[@kingsleyjohn506]

you didn't do your research well, cos its a flyover that its still on construction

[@favour_oparah]

Well it’s taking way too long🤷‍♀️

[@Feggytv]

And okowa want to became Vice President 😂 ...look at a state capital under his nose😢

[@favour_oparah]

What can we say😂

[@saintcolzy8711]

You call this a city?..... chai..... so Asaba is still like this.... shameful

[@favour_oparah]

Asaba is one of the top cities in nigeria according to reports but you know poor maintenance and developmental infrastructures that ought to be done by the govt is been overlooked🥺 leaving these cities in poor conditions

[@ifeanyiugwuanyi6007]

Driving through during or immediately after heavy rain not just Asaba but the state at large will frustrate one.the rate of holdup is something to look into.

[@favour_oparah]

Yeah I guess it’s affecting so many places in Nigeria

[@preciousmusamutum7620]

This is not something good to behold, remember walking inside water during my visit .

[@favour_oparah]

😂😂

[@amynmadu8766]

Wow my Asaba small London peaceful town very quite loving people. It’s now all these noise rowdy hot mess no drainage system no space hmmm. Since the Country took to another turn of kidnapping and rituals i skipped going home. Thank you for this video my kids got to see what’s of the place. Kindly go deep into the villages please Dalu

[@favour_oparah]

Am glad you found the video helpful, Thank you for watching🤗❤️, I’d do that on my next visit to asaba

[@amynmadu8766]

Dalu Nne Dalu

[@anitachukwuji188]

Does it mean someone wont be able to travel from Lagos to onitsha

[@favour_oparah]

It is very very risky now to travel by road

[@demikajseafood]

I was waiting for you to say the flyover is still under construction but you never did. You recorded a part of an ongoing project at koka on the major express/highway which is the cause of the bad road. Only to show us an already functioning flyover in town located at interbau. Why do you have to lie while creating your content? You didn’t think someone living in Asaba will see this video and be able to point out your lie?

[@favour_oparah]

Sweetie you actually need to calm down☺️, obviously the flyover is still under construction but it’s taking too long cos I have been plying that road for months now, I only showed a picture of what the ongoing flyover construction looks like since I wasn’t able to get a full view of it, so sweetie where is the lie??

[@demikajseafood]

I'm calm but I'm not just okay with the fact that you showed us a picture of interbau flyover while you were talking about the on going flyover project at koka. The koka project is yet to be completed which I agree but the picture you posted is not kola. That's interbau. A smart person would know the difference because how can you show us a bad road in a video but the picture you showed is a picture of an already functioning flyover with a good road? That is the lie I’m talking about. If you were using the interbau flyover as an illustration of what the Koka flyover would look like after construction, I will understand. If na so koka be them for don dey use the flyover

[@favour_oparah]

@@demikajseafood your last paragraph explains it all my dear, cos it’s the same plan and design for the two flyovers and the only difference is that the one at koka is still under construction which I already talked about …I’m glad you now get my point😊

[@ichakabulletreality2177]

Nne are you living in asaba because I'm in asaba too

[@favour_oparah]

No dear, I just visited

[@nwaobuaniesi9815]

Hello dear

[@favour_oparah]

Hello

[@aesthetictoks9497]

I can remember passing through that roundabout anytime i take that route and it Is always blocked due to holdup, the only place i am familiar with in asaba is that asaba-benin expressway and the asaba onitsha road that leads to that niger bridge

[@favour_oparah]

Yeah true, there’s always traffic there

[@nwaobuaniesi9815]

Please I need your help

[@favour_oparah]

Yeah how can I be of help?

[@favour_oparah]

I’m still in the process too o

[@evideostv]

More or less a village

[@favour_oparah]

Our cities in Nigeria just lack maintenance and more developmental infrastructures

[@thomasanderson3892]

I am there in Asaba now. It is a shame that the flood has hurt this beautiful city. The FG is totally now is a joke. Yet I will say that God always will protect the country and the people there in the city of Asaba and Anambra State.

[@favour_oparah]

It is well Amen 🙏
