Emmanuel Ugwu-Nwogo in Umuahia
It was an unusual spectacle seeing a group of women erupt in jubilation at the sight of a crawler excavator on a village road. But in a clime where provision of basic social amenities such as good roads, is never taken for granted, a joyous celebration of social amenity by a benefitting community cannot be a remote possibility.
The women of Umuobasiukwu Kingdom, Ozuitem in Bende Local Government of Abia State proved it when they erupted in joyous celebration at the sight of an earthmoving, heavy-duty vehicle gliding on chain tracks, grading and landscaping their village road.
