Answer:

Since the modifier is modifying the incorrect word, it is a dangling modifier. As a result, the meaning of the sentence is affected.

Explanation:

A dangling modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that is not in the right position in a sentence. As a result, the dangling modifier is operating over another word, phrase, or clause. Consequently, the sentence can be hard to understand, or can have another meaning than the intended one, or has no sense.

Aba,

Abia State.

April 25, 2021.

The Honorable Minister of Roads and Highways,

Federal Ministry of Roads and Highways,

Federal Secretariat,

Abuja.

Sir,

DEPLORABLE STATE OF ROADS IN SOUTH-EAST NIGERIA

It is with deep sense of urgency that I write to you regarding the deplorable state of some roads in south-east Nigeria. These roads include; Enugu-PortHarcourt expressway, Akokwa-Uga expressway and Old Umuahia road.

These roads are all strategic to sustainable of trade between south -east Nigeria and other regions of the country. The continuous neglect of these roads have led to a great downturn in the economy of south- east Nigeria.

Secondly, the poor state of these roads have hindered direct foreign investment in south- east Nigeria. Many potential investors do not bring their investments to this region of the country for fear of failure of the business due to poor state of access roads in the region.

Lastly, lack of access roads in this region have greatly enhanced capital flight out of the region. This in turn have fueled unemployment and consequent youth restiveness which currently threatens the peace of this region of the country.

I plead with you sir, to consider us in this region and quickly see to the initiation and completion of maintenance work on these affected express roads that link south- east Nigeria to other regions of the country.

Thanks in anticipation of our positive response.

Yours Faithfully,

Jude Njoku

In Night, why was Moshe the Beadle forced to leave Sighet by Hungarian police?

tamaranim1 [39]

In 'Night', the narrator is Eliezer, a Hungarian boy who was 12 years old at the moment and who was living in Sighet. This town was part of Hungary during World War II, at the time this story was set (on the contrary now it is in Romania).

Moshe the Beadle was Eliezer's teacher of Jewish doctrine and, in fact, he was an inspiring and challenging educator for this kid. All foreign Jews were sent out of town by the Hungarian police, including Moshe, as part of the anti-Semitic acts generalized all over the nazi Europe. Hungary was one of Germany's allies during World War II, and obeyed the type of politics fostered by Hitler, contributing to spread attacks against Jews and ejections within its territory.
