Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Traders from the northern part of the country plying the old Ogbomoso-Oyo road have resorted to selling off their goods such as livestocks and perishables at low prices due to the deplorable condition of the road, DAILY POST reports.<\/p>\n

Our correspondent learnt that many lives have been lost as a result of the deplorable condition of the old road.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST reports that many travellers and indigenes of Ogbnomso have made several appeals to the Federal Government to complete the new Ibadan-Oyo-Ogbnomso-Ilorin expressway.<\/p>\n

Our correspondent learnt that many passengers are still plying the old road due to the non-completion of the new road.<\/p>\n

It was learnt that a trailer fell on the road on Thursday, leading to the death of four people in Ogbomoso.<\/p>\n

Investigation made on Saturday revealed that many of the traders plying the Ibadan-Oyo-Ogbomoso-Ilorin federal road within Ogbomoso metropolis have resorted to selling off their perishable goods at ridiculously low prices to avert total losses.<\/p>\n

An Ogbomoso indigene, Mr Adebowale Akindele, disclosed that he purchased goat at a very low price from a stranded truck conveying livestock.<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cLivestock like goat, sheep and even cattle as well as other perishable goods like pepper, tomato and others are being disposed off by traders transporting them from the northern part of the country at reduced prices to residents of Ogbomoso.\u201d<\/p>\n

A trader who identified himself as Abdullahi, from Sokoto, lamented the deplorable condition of the road.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are selling the animals at low prices because they are distressed. The long travelling and the unexpected hold up in Ogbomoso causes heavy strain on the animals making them to die, so we have to dispose some of them.\u201d<\/p>\n

A trader who did not reveal his name noted that he and his colleagues decided to sell off the livestocks instead of losing the animals.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany others are taking advantage of the situation. The animals may be affected by stress, lack of food and water due to the unnecessary delay caused by the gridlock resulting from the Ogbomoso damaged road.<\/p>\n

\u201cA big he-goat whose market price ranges from N35,000 to N40,000 is being sold for as low as N10,000,\u201d he said.
