It is really annoying when we keep warning you guys about disasters that can be avoided while you guys keep suppoing those disasters which then affects the whole country...


We warned you guys about Buhari

We warned you guys about Tinubu

We warned you guys about his policies

See where Nigeria is today....

Now we are warning you guys about this project....

Do you guys ever learn?

They're born fools. Common sense will always be far from them. That is the reason why they are always suitable for propaganda work.

This project ordinarily would have been a welcome development but Nigeria as a country has so many pressing issues right now. Our economy is not vibrant enough to confidently see out this mega project.
Even the presidency Knows the truth....but this people supporting them....I feel they are being paid to support unpopular decisions because they always support whatever they dish out......no constructive criticism......they always agree and stand by them. It's crazy!!
there is no excuse for some of the hard headed support they give to this leaders who keep on inflicting suffering on the innocent ones and even they that keep defending them. I really don't understand them

Thanks

Good contributions

That's why they are against it.

They want the SS underdeveloped so that their future land grabbing will be easy.

The highway is seen as bypassing their Dot and encircling it making a future biafra a " Dot in the circle " if I can borrow from that llama Buhari.

They hate this project for reasons deeper than you can comprehend and it's all tied to their future land grabbing.

A developed and economically viable and integrated SS can not and will never ever fall for Biafra gimmicks.

This is the reason they are bitterly complaining about and against the project .

2... Is a means to enrich some people big time
3... Gives investor opportunity to easily build company that depends on sea and water for easily operation....creating opportunities for South to be more commercial hub
4...Tinubu trying to create unforgettable legacy for the south ....preparing them down for the future. Some problems

1. The road will connect all the 7 ports in Nigeria together

2. The road will serve as alternative to lagos-ibadan expreway.

3. All major cities in South West and South South will be connected together.

4. The 700 kilometer road is not entirely new as there many federal roads within it so it served as way of repairing the bad federal roads

5. The coastal road will have rail, this will assist the new refineries to easily move their products.


Story.. the only costal road is from VI to Ibeju Lekki. Anyone telling you of another road between Lagos and Benin, apart from the existing one is just being simple.

You are stating the economic importance without knowing the direction of this road. Poorly tutored agbadorian.

Re: Economic Importance Of Lagos Calabar Coastal High Way by Shikena(m): 8:49pm On May 01
Why build road for that when you can simply buy barges, hovercrafts and flatboats to transport oil resources? Your point makes no sense.

TechBaron:
Just an avenue to channel SS oil resources to the SW.

Nothing more!

Buhari built pipeline from the Niger Delta to Kaduna..

Tinubu is building a coastal hugway from Lagos to the Niger Delta.

If there was resource control, everybody would have been busy developing his region, not connecting pipelines and highways to other people's resources.

My other question is, must everything be about Lagos? What happened to opening the other ports down the river and making them viable for shipping? Lagos is already congested and this(if it is even completeed)is a white elephant project and to buttress my point, I ask that you go over your write-up again and ask yourself these questions : what special economic benefit would this project have on the economy that warrants spending this huge amount? Is this the right time to go about this (white elephant) project?
emkz:
Similar benefits of roads include:

(1) Open up rural areas to industrialization by connecting rural areas to urban centers.
(2) Reducing commuting time for travellers.
(3) Enhancing the economies of local communities through job creation and trade.
(4) Enhancing cultural cocktails and boosting tourism potentials.
(5) Revenue generation through tolls in the long term.
(6) Reducing people's expenses. If I can drive to my office in Lagos in one hour and live somewhere accommodation is cheaper.

When the project is completed within 5-6 us we will then begin the process of restructuring Nigeria back to pre Ironsi Nigeria.

Obi, as Premier of SE regional PM (if Ekpa gree) can then start developing your river ports.

Who cares about their criticism? Whoever you need to explain the economic importance of the road to is either an illiterate or an enemy of progress.

Whatever needs to be demolished should be demolished - I can even offer free demolition service to government if required. You can't have it both ways more so that compensations are being paid to the affected people.

What should be our concern is the tradition of the Nigerian government to abandon projects. We must not allow this to happen to the coastal road project. I love the project and I can see the transformation this would be bring, to not only Lagos but all other states it connects.

1. How will the road connect 7 ports in Nigeria?

2. How can it serve as alternative to Lagos-Ibadan Expressway when it's a coastal road. Is Ibadan a coastal town?

3. Major cities how? Ibadan, Abeokuta, Akure, Ado-Ekiti, Osogbo, Benin, PH, Uyo are major cities of SW and SS. How will these road connect these cities? Are they previously unconnected?

4. How is it not new when it is supposed to be a coastal highway. Is there an existing coastal highway?

5. Refineries are better served with pipelines connecting them to depots and ports not rail lines.

Conclusion: It's obvious you don't know what you're talking about.

P.S. Your map is a map of the existing road linking south west with south south and south east. It shows your ignorance that you mistook that for the coastal highway.

50% Nigeria economic activities takes place in Lagos

Part of the ways to discongest Lagos is to open other places to it, so that will not necessarily stay there
