More On The Condition Of Roads From Facebook Discussion!!! by agabaI23(m): 6:17pm On Jan 04, 2014
Fellas.Thank GOD for this last Christmas holiday. Many who have heard different lies by the Powerful Lagos Media and the Saboteurs of this Administration are now wondering why the lies ?

My Friend Dad left Lagos on Christmas day at 4am for Onitsha. While the family members were still sleeping and finally woke up around 8am to Pray for their Dad and wish him safe Journey. He called and said Guys" can you believe that am already at Onitsha at 9:15am ?
A friend wrote the above on his facebook wall and below are the responses. I have removed the names of the commentators because I didn't take permission from them.

A Ithink this man Jonathan is shaming them and their lies. A relation left onitsha this morning at abt 7:30am and got to lagos abt 12am. This was never possible in OBJ's 8 yrs of governance.

OP[/b]I will be glad if the Lagos-Ibadan can be completed before 2015. Not because of GEJ election but because we need that road to be in Good Condition and if change of Government happen, it may never be completed again. That is one BIG Achievement if this administration can complete the Reconstruction.

[quote]Why's the premier Nigerian airport in Lagos so shabby?
-
It will take so much money and time to get the standard you see outside just like it is difficult for Fash to get Lagos to what level he desires in 7 years despite his hardwork. Heathrow was 'sold out' to a foreign company because the British does not have money to get what they want. Gatwick same

Why's the electricity supply in the country so messed up?
Electricity generation and management has improved. What has not improved mostly is the transmission especially as it has to do with the replacement of low capacity transformers and cables that serviced areas that previously had a population of 30 and 1000. I had such experience. We had issues, low voltage etc. Firstly, the government gave us a new transformer but it didn't solve the problem because the 35 mm cables were not good enough. We spent more money to get high capacity cables and we were having weeks of steady power. I don't stay there anymore but not has changed.

Your state governors and senators have a lot to do in this aspect.

- Where are there no infrastructures everywhere and almost everyone seems to be poor and needy, yet the country has the highest GDP in Africa? Where's the wealth
Everybody is poor but the number of tasty automobiles on our roads are increasing daily. Everybody is poor but houses are springing up daily! What do we call wealth? When everyone owns a house is VGC, ministers hill...? It could be better but it is not that bad.

Goodluck is building institutions and infrastructures but the people who have been holding this nation down do not want him to succeed. Don't join them. It is all about power grabbing.

You are so on point bro.

In 2011, People were saying Jonathan is weak, Jonathan cannot transform PDP, Jonathan cannot confront them but I told them, it takes someone like Jonathan to transform PDP. What we are seeing is that he is transforming the PDP by gentle soldiering. They are all running away to APC not the old PDP while the new PDP is emerging.

The only president that listens to the voice of his people when they disapprove of his move and the opposition will call it being weak because he does not insist on his view. Where will I start?

What about Ilorin-Kabba Road? The road is unmotorable, you just have to bye-pass it by taking the Ekiti route to Kabba(a waste of time and resources).
Ilorin-Bida road is a death trap.
Ajase-Ipo to Osogbo is also bad(Ogbeni is rehabilitating the Osun end of the road. The Ilorin-Ibadan express way? Work on Ogbomoso-Oyo part of the road is at a halt. The only completed area of the road is the Ilorin-Ogbomoso axis and it's been completed since 2009.
These are federal roads around my state.
Besides, if I can drive from Ilorin-Abuja in 5hours time, I wonder why I'd spend more time from Lagos-Onitsha which is just about the same distance. I wonder if all the federal roads in Nigeria are just along Lagos-SS/SE
