Delta State Govt Sends Operatives To Arrest Man Who Exposed Flooded Road In Viral Video, Fails To Address Dilapidation

An unidentified individual from Delta State who recently used TikTok to highlight the deplorable state of Shell Road in Sapele, likening the road to a "swimming pool" due to frequent flooding has been arrested by security operatives.

In the viral video, the man had been seen taking a "bath" in the middle of the road, where water had collected because of the poor condition of the road.

His actions were intended to draw attention of the state government to the lack of proper infrastructure in the area.

Instead of addressing the road issue, the Delta State government allegedly sent undercover security agents to apprehend him, it was learnt.

In the video, the man directly called out the Delta State Governor and former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, saying, "Governor Sheriff, former Governor Okowa, you have failed us. Look at the road, it's like a pool." His protest against the government’s inaction resonated with many on social media.
