The Elevators at Youyi building which houses most of the government ministries is currently broken with workers and other frequenters finding it very difficult to access most of the offices to conduct businesses.
According to what Concord Times gathered, the Elevators have been out of operation for over 10 weeks now with no intervention from the relevant authorities.
Concord Times observed serious limitations of movement of workers, especially those in offices housed on the top floors.
“We are suffering in this building, as we have no clues about when the Elevators will be effective. You cannot go for lunch, because you will be wondering to climb over 200 steps in the building” expressed one of the workers who preferred anonymity.
Another worker who also preferred anonymity, told Concord Times that, one of the difficult challenges they are faced with is to transport stationery to the offices for daily use.
“We have to pay hard labor to take them to our floor. There are many equipments and furniture which we want to tranfer to the building but we cannot do it now” He said.
“There are aged people in our midst who takes 40 to 50 minutes just to climb the stairs. The absence of the Elevators also affects the administrative work because most of the aged do absent themselves from work because of fear of climbing the stairs.
