Rivers community fumes over deplorable East-West road, issues ultimatum The Punch Published 8 July 2021 A Pan-ethnic social rights group, Ogoni People’s Assembly, has issued a 14-day ultimatum to the Federal Government and the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio, to commence reconstruction of the Eleme-Onne section of the East-West Road or prepare for a mass action. The group described the 15-kilometre section of the road as the busiest and most economically viable after Apapa in Lagos State due to the volume of daily traffic into major national assets, including the oil and gas free zone in Rivers State.
