God punish this Govt, wicked people yaff finish ussad........... And kwara stage govt have been collecting tax for that Ilorin-jebba road ehn. They locked up more then 5000 shops early this year and each shops must pay N3500 as tax for the roadsad
I learnt that stretch of road was awarded to the emir of ilorin during the past administration and he 'wacked' the money without doing anything until buhari came on board and ordered all the 'wackee' contractors to site or go to jail before the man mobilized to go to site. I'm sure na una money wey una contribute e take go start work. anyway sha at least the road is 90% complete now grin

I even heard a "sweeter" gist.

I was told the Emir was summoned and he wanted to fly in and was turned back at the airport and instructed to come by road.

After all the 6-7hour horrors of that trip. ..he was simply informed by PMB to do the right thing. If you have ever plyed that road you would understand perfectly.

This is commendable; 1. This budget is evenly spread across the six geo- political areas and equally captured critical areas. If previous infrastructural budgets have been in this manner, many of us won't be bitter over marginalization. There's nothing to compare with equity and fairness, it is a natural law that brings harmony and peaceful coexistence. 2. If buhari/APC led administration completes these roads as listed, especially those in southeast (abia most importantly), I will join APC, campaign and vote for buhari in his second tenure. Thank God I never voted for the clueless Jonathan in his second tenure bid due to abandonment of these critical roads


Apc still promising, sounds more like campaign
If you like join buhari, forces with Apc,

2019. We will vote them out.
If you enjoy hardship... go on and vote Apc

God bless our country Nigeria!

Btw, when Hon Asadu attacked Amaechi about non capturing of SE in railway projects, did he refer him to the original masterplan of the railway modernisation project or am I missing something? It seems to capture SE state capitals

Quality road construction is not overnight work, advance countries with all necessary equipment at their disposal spend time to construct roads.
