Residents of Federal Housing Autority (FHA) Lugbe have faulted the contractors of the estate, for creating only one route into and out of the estate describing the architects as not envisaging the volume of traffic that would pass there.
According to Mr. Kenneth Atati, a resident and spokesman of the FHA resident, people living in the estate go through a lot of stress duringthe morning and evening hours since there is only one road for every one.
To compound it all, Mr Atati said, even the one entrance was choked with hawkers, Okada riders and motorists who stop either to drop a passenger or buy something from the hawkers, making it more difficult for people to pass smoothly.
He also frowned at the state of the streets in the area describing them as "fit for cattle play ground".
Mr. Livinus Saint Kaior, also a resident of FHA Lugbe, criticized the contractors of the projec,t describing them as a bunch of failures since, according to him, they were very myopic in thinking that a big estate of that magnitude should not have multiple entrance.
Saint Kaior noted that even FHA Kubwa had more than one entrance, same for Gwarimpa and FHA Karu.
He, however, opined that the contractors be brought to book and the master plan be promptly checked to ensure that they did not purposely leave out the other entrances un- constructed.
Kaior commended the efforts of the FCT Minister, Dr. Aliyu Modibbo Umar, for coming to their aid by initiating the rehabilitation of some of the streets in the area, as according to him, "They were completely written off as they were no longer motorable.
