The people of Nenwe community in Aninri local government has a very bad road.

The problems faced by the roads are; bad riding quality, poor geometrics and insufficient
pavement thickness. Having a poor road system makes it more difficult for children to go to
school and more expensive for farmers to bring their produce to the market. Roads adversely
affect them in countless other ways and thus it makes them poorer.

Building and repairing roads make a powerful impact on people's lives in the rural areas. Many
small towns are poor, and young people are being driven to go to large cities to find jobs.

Additionally, roads development bring social, cultural and economic changes in the lives of the
people in terms of providing connectivity between people and places and thus help in reducing
the poverty as long as direct market access to the rural producers.  It is a fact that if roads in an
area are well-developed and properly maintained, travel time is reduced and access to local
markets, work places, educational institutions and medical and health services are increased.
