The Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST) central post office in Kubwa, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, has been in a state of disrepair for five months, the MeridianSpy exclusively report.
Our investigation reveals that the post office has a damaged roof and a dilapidated structure. Despite trailing the rehabilitation activities for five months, the post office remains in the same condition since February 2024.
Two staff members, who wished to remain anonymous, confirmed that the office has been in disarray for an extended period. They criticized the management style, pointing out that the surrounding environment is filled with dirt, grass, and even a sizeable cassava farm.
A walk around the vicinity revealed dilapidated structures, with some sections rented out to small business owners while some staff appeared unhappy and troubled due to the neglect of their welfare considering the economic hardship by this current administration.
Further investigations showed that the Nigerian Postal Service hierarchy has neglected the office and staff welfare for years. A temporary caravan, placed aside from the main building, is structurally deficient and too small for staff to perform their duties effectively.
An insider who spokes to our correspondent revealed that it was a struggle to get NIPOST to provide the caravan, and the office lacks decent toilets. The soakaway pit behind the main building is collapsing, with grass growing around the supposed toilet living staff.
