Hurray Benin To Lagos Is Now 7 Hours Which Used To Be 3 Hours
Funny enough baba or the EFCC can not ask why the road is bad for seven years, N340 billion has been allocated to the past and present but still baba can not call Chief Tony Aneni or Ogunlewe the two longest serving ministers in the that ministry and ask why is the road stlill bad or is it because they suported his third term bid. Where are we going in this country.

This is one of OBJ's achievements, as the greatest leader Nigeria ever had, let Odeku comment on this, N300 Billion voted and stolen.

I don't have or know the facts to this thread, let the DUMMY that posted the thread substantiate his claim that $340 Million was allocated. was he there when the contract was allocated or signed? another useless thread with no credibility.

like 3weeks ago wen i was comin to lagos frm benin,we left benin by 10:15am and i got to lagos by 6pm. we spent ova 4hrs in that HOLDUP.
it was terrible it was as if half of the population of lagos (exagerated sha)was on the road. the road is terrible.
but i read in THIS DAY NEWSPAPER of sunday 21st oct that the fedral govt has approved 6billion naira for the rehabilitation of lagos benin road (we pray say dem no tif am again.)
come to tink of it,its d EDO state section of the road that is bad y cant d state govt do somtin just as a temporary measure(they wil say its a fedral road so its left 4 d fedral govt ot do it) even the roads in EDO sate are so bad.
its like dey dont have a gov'nor

Na wah o! Maybe we should change that man's name from Oba-so-njo to Oba-so-mma. The Njo (Bad) in his name is causing all the bad things thats been happening to Nigeria since his tenure. We no go die sha! God will see we easterners through all this.

@CheeMoney,
Good talk, a change of name should be implemented for Baba.
@All
Lagos-Benin road actually needs to be looked into urgently!
May I suggest that a smooth, functional by-pass be constructed WHENEVER the repairs start to ease flow of traffic, as done with road repairs elsewhere, rather than allowing work and motorists conflicting, causing more delays in the traffic.
And isn't it about time we had a Speed-railway system like it's done in other places?
Abi are we meant to see such only in movies?
Haba!

Bad Roads + The criminal Elements on that express way is a recipe for diasater. Thanks to our Load almighty OBJ is on his way out, I hope another crook does not replace him.

is that your own classification of ROAD? guess u av not seen or passed thru that road in a long while.
am sure the roads in our most underdeveloped village in nigeria (lets say koma hills) is beta than what we find on that okada - ore road axis, its a shame cos that is the road that links d east and the west.
for ibos that will travel during xmas,i wonder how long u guys will spend on that road during that period if something is not done FAST (many would celebrate xmas and newyear on the highway).
God save us

The really annoying part of it is that while you are on the Lagos, Ogun and Ondo stretches, there is no serious issue, that is until you pass Ofosu. . .

My Brother Did you sat 7 yrs. if it's the same road i plied last thursday that you are talking about,then from my calculation it was, 9hrs 45mins. who is talking about Aneni and Ogunlewe, those are past events, but the most annoying thing is that ,right now, they pretend to be working on th e road to divert pple's attention, but no actual work is going on, on that road. 2007 is very near , all of then are trying to make as much money as possible paraventure he didn't get to the next government, it's reall painful anyway
