Many of these people who write rubbish are mocked outside of Nigeria. Go check out all of the current wealthy nations. They began by developing infrastructure. Whether the economy is in depression or not, we must put structures, roads, railways, and seaways in place. We keep shouting that food is expensive...while farmers complain about bad roads. Consider how much food, oil, and other large items will be transported by rail across the entire region. And then the road will be preserved.

Many people are just educated illiterates in Nigeria.

I don't like Tinubu, I am not his fan... but during the election, I said it clearly that he would build Nigeria like he built Lagos. However, we will have his boys everywhere. Thuggery will reign... and many other bad things. Nigerians prefer him, and they have him. Shikena. Make dem manage am. But building infrastructure is not out of place.

Nigerians are gluttons. They prefer palliatives. Or have them use magic to put food on their table. They do not see the economic value in constructing this railway and road. They will finish it by the grace of God. Tinubu does not have records of abandoned projects. He is a man who chooses a follower to replace him and keep his projects going. The evidence is still in Lagos. He has many flaws, but I believe we should let this phase pass.

To me, let them keep putting infrastructure in place. We have reaped too many benefits from subsidies. Let us make sacrifices for our children and generations to come. Let us sacrifice for them. Even these politicians are embezzling, and we can do nothing. As long as infrastructure like this exists, we will eventually be able to confront corrupt politicians and control corruption.

Finally, it is beneficial to have opposition. While I condemn those who oppose this project, I still appreciate them. Everything requires checking and balancing.

Let us move Nigeria forward.

I remember not a long time ago when all these rodents feasted on Dr. Oby Ezekwesili for criticizing Nigeria Air and when she was all out against Emefiele during Buhari's administration. She was insulted beyond measure by unfortunate political goons and louts but today, we know the truth.

Racoon:
This is one of the flagged red signs of this project. No due process on the actual funding and abuse of government provision in the award of public contracts. No competitive bidding. This is what you get when criminal minded people are in government. Dave Umahi will end up being the fall guy here one day.

Sannisege:
The coastal road as an alternative road will reduce stress on the internal roads thereby making them last longer. New communities will also spring up along the coasts leading to more economic activities and depopulation of already overpopulated internal urban and rural areas. How about travel time reduction? The advantages are endless.

TheRealestGuy:


Ignoring all of your statements, my question to you is simple - why did the project not go through the bidding process via the BPE as enshrined in the laws; and why was their no Environmental Impact Assement completed before commencing the project?

Or should we not ask these questions because Tinubu wants to build Nigeria?

The same way he built pipelines straight from lagos state govt coffers to Bourdillon?

maxiuc:
gibberish as usual .... Every country that wants progress invest heavily in electricity generation first, most of the companies that left Nigeria left because of high cost of production where they have to depend on generators to run their factory we have lost many factories to Ghana because of electricity issues these companies didn't leave Nigeria because the roads were bad they left because bad electricity supply where they depend on expensive diesel for production they don't skip development process creating More roads with huge funds when there are bad existing ones is a waste and a bigger waste now that the country is struggling hard

Promismike:
Gospel truth. I maintain it's a misplaced priorities.

Every resources Nigeria has presently should be channeled into
1. building of refineries to reduce the price of petroleum which which is the mainstay of our economy and has multiple effect on the economy and massess. Dangote refinery is not enough.
2. Provision of constant electricity. Many businesses are winding up in Nigeria because of the high cost of production as a result of cost of diesel and fuel couple with high cost of raw materials.
3. Security
and education possibly

South South people are so happy because of the coastal road that will be constructed and they have not hidden it, South West people are happy because the road will be constructed. The Northerners are not worried about it and have not said anything. But you see South East, they are very bitter because of that road. Why?

PHIPEX:
They think we are dumb, Nigeria is not Lagos.

You awarded Nigeria most expensive project to your friend without a competitive bidding and think having Ben Bruce sing your praise is a way out.

DMerciful:
Tinubu government is a fraud!

immortalcrown:
As you believed Premium Times then, believe it this time.

But the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. It is like killing millions to save one. Imagine N77 trillion loan and a whooping 97% of total revenue to service the loan. Is this progress?

LadyExcellency:


People are talking about the cost and economic wastage. As a father, you plan your family. You don't leave the children's school fees and feeding to start a new building project when the house you are living in has a leaking roof, and broken doors and windows. You don't tell the wife and children to shut up and don't sleep in the new house whenever you finish it. This is a ridiculous statement.

AareGaa:
The only disadvantage is that the road won't pass through cursed biaflan region
