Blac_pearl: Oftentimes, been in a position of authority comes with its own set of challenges. A good example is the bureaucracy that shields leaders from realities on ground. Most times, a minister’s aide(s) might not be his best means of touching base. Hearing directly from the people, without exposing oneself to unnecessary distractions, is the sure way to see and feel what is going on.
I want to hear directly from road users and patriotic Nigerians who desire to join hands with us to make our FEDERAL ROADS better than they are at present. I have created an email account (feedbackmow@gmail.com) through which you can reach me directly to lay your complaints ,proffer suggestions or inform me on just about anything to do with FEDERAL ROADS. However, I will need the following favours:
A. Is there a federal road that needs urgent attention?
B. We have done some roads. Are they okay by you? (photographs attached)
C. Are any of our contractors not living up to their responsibilities on the job?
D. In what way do you think we can further improve and maintain the state federal roads in Nigeria?
E. Kindly let us know any federal road we should be preparing to pay attention to that is not already on our list.

I have received a number of awards, commendations and pats on the back for supposedly ‘a job welldone’. I appreciate all of that but I am not swayed, deceived or disillusioned to believe that all is well with federal roads all over Nigeria. In as much as any government (or minister,for that matter) cannot fix all Nigerian roads, I believe we can do our utmost best with the resources available to make life better, make a mark and be able to say before God and man that we did our best.
I believe more than anything that qualitative change is possible if the leaders and the led are committed to it. I believe more than anything that qualitative change is possible if the leaders and the led are committed to it.

redcliff: Akinsulire Street, Aguda needs total rehab pls..

The minister is talking about Federal expressways. Meet Fashola for that street you mentioned.

We've never had it so good in road construction. Thank you GEJ.[/size]

redcliff:

doesnt mean he cant so anything if he wants to.... LASG has ignored it for more than 20 years. Isnt it better We go to a higher authority?

mu2sa2: So the minister doesn't know the bad roads, even the ones right under his nose. For how long will this clueless govt pull wool over the eyes of gullible Nigerians? Well over to those who have data bundle to waste to begin sending emails that no one will act upon.

atlwireles:

Maybe God help you. Why will politicians not take us for granted. Just listen to yourself.

12 inches!:
Mr minister, employ people to do the work you ask from us. What nonsense. I'm an engineer and if the right people are winning bids for contracts without paying bribes, nepotism etc, you won't be asking us to monitor contractors for you. If I leave my work and start monitoring projects for you, then what will you be doing at the ministry of works. Perhaps, you can also pay a transportation consultant to do your road prioritization for you instead of asking me to do it free of charge for u.

johnmartus: hmmm election is approaching don't campaign for Jonathan now talk is cheap is only road construction that your ministry' is after?what about jebba ilorin express way?what about ajaokuta steel company are you blind you don't know the next thing to do?we you response if I email you what about letters you have been resive from state government traditional rulars what step are you taken ?

julioralph: lies!!! the renovated section of the Oshodi-Apapa expressway is totally different from the section that was flooded(westminster bus-stop opposite capital oil/front of Zenithbank Trinity branch). That place still gets flooded when it rains heavily despite the so-called renovation work which was not totally completed.

glimpse:

if you were the minister would you have known? The man ask you for help to know the ones he should work on. Humans are just insatiable. If he doesn't want to work,you will cry foul. Now,he wants to work and this is what you have to say. Why not tell him first?

PapaBrowne: I have made some trips across the nation this December and I must say, I am very impressed as there is construction going on virtually across every nook and cranny of the southern part of Nigeria. I haven't ventured up north in a while so I cant speak about that.

I will surely use the email to send some quality information.

asha 80: why is work slow on onitsha enugu expressway?

mu2sa2: What stops the minister from driving round the country to have a feel of the bad roads? He sits in Abuja,travels by air, and comes out to make jest of the gullible like you to send emails.
