The deplorable condition of rural roads in the South-East region is very pathetic. Besides the bad roads, other facilities such as health centres, where they exist at all, are in shambles.

We now do business in Rivers State because no road to link our Abia people—Abia community
The bad condition of the roads in their community has forced the people of Obuzor Community in Ukwa West Local Government Area of Abia State to go to the neighbouring Obigbo town in Rivers State for business transactions as the roads that will lead them to Abia markets are all in deplorable condition.
Eze Nwagbara lamented the condition of roads in the entire Ukwa land, saying the people are going through a lot of hardship. According to him, road infrastructure in the entire oil-rich area has completely collapsed, thus making life highly miserable for the people.
The monarch regretted that the only means of transportation to his community now is motorcycle due to bad road, adding that their alternative route going to Aba is through Rivers State, which of course costs them much more.
