Kongo-Central Provincial Deputy Jean Kimboko recently raised a critical issue in the Moanda region: the advanced state of disrepair of the roads. This worrying situation has direct repercussions on the daily lives of residents, particularly with regard to the evacuation of agricultural products to major consumption centers.
It is alarming to note that essential roads such as the Malongo-Yema axis, which is used daily by many users and on which a toll is collected, have been deteriorating for years without any concrete measures being taken to rehabilitate them. This degradation not only affects the flow of traffic, but also limits the ability of local farmers to market their products.
Jean Kimboko’s remarks highlight a bleak reality for the residents of Moanda. The agricultural access roads are in a deplorable state, which not only hinders the economic development of the region, but also isolates certain communities by cutting them off from the main distribution centers.
The deterioration of road infrastructure is not just a logistical problem, it is a hindrance to the socio-economic development of an entire region. Residents find themselves trapped in a vicious circle where agricultural productivity cannot be fully exploited due to the lack of reliable infrastructure for the evacuation of crops.
It is imperative that the relevant authorities take urgent measures to repair these defective roads and ensure smooth access to markets for local farmers. Investment in the rehabilitation of road axes is crucial to stimulate the local economy, strengthen food security and improve the quality of life of the inhabitants of Moanda.
In conclusion, the dilapidated roads in Moanda are a major problem that requires immediate action. The economic future of the region largely depends on the quality of its road infrastructure. It is time to act to repair the roads, boost agricultural activity and allow Moanda to fully prosper in a connected and functional environment.
