It's not southerners that are against the road but precisely Igbo people because the road doesn't pass through their land.
They are always against good development since it's not Obi or that labour party government of Abia State that is doing it.
They like to condemn leaders from other tribes and try to praise and promote their own.
Peter Obi that didn't even have a landmark project to show in Anambra for 8 years is the one they are making noise about because of tribalism

Have you travelled by road in the country?
You just mentioned that Igbos are against it because the road doesn't pass through SE, don't you think they have the right to do so considering they make most of the importation and need such road most?

For your information, Igbos aren't against it, you simply don't know how to manage finances and you aren't different from wasteful politicians. The point is, We are all screaming about how broke Nigeria is, so why not fix the existing roads with a fraction of the budget for coastal road and use the remainder to boost the economy?? Coastal Road isn't an urgency and can be built later. What's needed now is to rescue Nigeria by saving as much as possible and investing in project that will help boost the economy as soon as possible.

wirinet:

Abeg, also add this statement for enlightenment. I honestly don't understand what he is talking about here.

“I’m very happy that the President has directed me to begin the design of one of the spurs linking to this coastal route, and that is the Sokoto-Badagry, which was conceived by the President Shagari administration.

How can the coastal road that starts from Epe be one of the spurs linking the proposed Sokoto - Badagry expressway, which is expected to start in Badagry? A road conceived in the 70s even before the thought of a coastal road.
You sure say Umehi no dey smoke loud?

He's simply saying foreign investors will fund part of the project.

Tetrahedron:
Even though I am not a Tinubu supporter but this project is probably the best thing that can happen to the south and most importantly Lagos state.
Let us tell ourselves the truth instead of playing bitter politics!
What did buhari do for the south?

Read the concluding part of the post that are not bolded you'd see the main reason for this road. I would be the happiest if this road goes beyond Ogun State.

APC stooges has taught us how to get out of criticism by comparing prices in other countries. DSTV is right.

Nazgul:
This one is still a teenager na. Fear wouldn't allow him talk about love to the girl.

But there's still hope for him cos he's intelligent. When he graduates and gets a good job, nice apartment and potable ride, he'll come back to eat the fruit of his labour.

I laugh, that girl is currently dating a guy 10x richer than that boy and may get married even before she graduates. It's not easy to attain financial stability as a young man.

A 25 years old girl and a 25 years old guy aren't age mates.

EreluRoz:
😭 it's always a woman's body. Ladies please be very careful, don't be too quick to trust anyone these days. Most men of these generation are after quick wealth and women are part of their rituals to get this wealth.

Inside that sweet mouth lies a demonic motive, please be very careful out there.

You guys are sometimes slow in thinking with your assumptions. I remember there was a case like this sometime ago, people blamed Yahoo boys and ritualists, during investigation it turned out she was murdered by another woman who sent assassins to kill and dump her body to make it look like ritual killing.

Even your president would share dollar during campaign, he'd prefer hoarding dollars. Make una dey deceive unaselves

That's on very modest usage. Omo I don see shege for this Band A.

Make Una try dey read, the man formed a club and people from abroad joined and contributed money they invested in real estates,
No be everything be corruption and fraud

He will explain the figures to EFCC on how 54M transformed to 20Billion in the space of 6 years.

Reno is funny.

What he does is take the list of all projects OBI completed as a governor which are numerous, he looks for one thing missing and then come online to ask you to find it.

If you do this to all previous governors, you must find numerous things they couldn't do because it's impossible to do everything.

cliped:
Proactive Wike. Well done sir

it's called ultimatum not threat.

Brendaniel:
Last time I checked, Atiku also talked about the issue of coastal road, is Reno not supposed to be defending Atiku as a PDP person?

He doesn't even support Atiku again or PDP, he just attacks only Peter Obi and Igbos same thing APC e-warriors do on Nairaland here...

Reno discovered OBI has huge followership of which many are online, so what he does is post just about anything to trigger those followers so they can respond on his page while he cashes out.

So escape from Nigeria prison is this easy that foreigners without knowledge of the terrain can easily plan to escape .

Gender Equality in the mud.

Lifestone:
So at least you have agreed that Obi didn't initiate the University. So it didn't qualify by what Reno asked for

I agree it is smarter to use N3billion to rehabilitate and upgrade 100 dilapidated schs than use it to build 5 new ones. It goes back to what I said, building new ones is trying to score cheap political points, Obi wasn't interested in that.

Ayo25:
who needs education when we can get 'intoxication'

From being drunk, Anambra moved to the top in Education sector... I guess we need more Breweries.

aguluobi:
What a foolish response to the question Reno asked. If Reno wanted to know schools Peter Peter Obi renovated or added campuses he would have asked that.

The man was explicit in his question, give me a school Peter Obi built from scratch n commissioned. Till this hour no one answered that question.

For fools n praise singer of Peter Obi the Lagos State University was established n built by Jakande at Ojo but after him additional campuses have been added and we now have LASU campus in Ikeja and Epe just like the Igbaram Peter Obi added to Anambra Uni.

Jakande did not build the Ikeja n Epe campuses yet no subsequent governor of Lagos dare take the glory of the University away from Jakande that is what Obidient are doing with Anambra university campus Igbaram.

I understand obidient wish the University was built by Peter Obi but that is never the case so you all have to aeae h deeper for a school Peter Obi built from scratch or simply admit he never built any n only addes campuses to the ones he met on ground n renovated old schools without building any new school.

Which governor in the history of Nigeria do not renovate blocks of school building etc

This is the wastefulness Obi is talking about in Nigeria. Why build a new school when you have 100's that can be rehabilitated?? The only reason would be to score a political point while wasting the resources of the state.

This is what Obi is currently saying concerning the Coastal Road. Why start another multi billion project when you have roads that needs rehabilitation? You waste billions of dollars on a new road that won't be completed in 20-30 years time but refuse to use one quarter of the expenses to rehabilitate existing roads.

You can see how your resources are being wasted just for political points that are irrelevant.

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND.

"NON COMPETE" IF ZENITH BANK HIRES YOU IN LAGOS,IF YOU LEAVE OR GET FIRED YOU CANNOT WORK FOR ANY OTHER BANK IN LAGOS FOR 2 YEARS. MOST JOBS MAKE YOU SIGN NON-COMPETE BEFORE THEY HIRE YOU !

THIS USUALLY UPTURNS YOUR LIFE, CHANGE YOUR HOUSE, CHANGE YOUR CHILDREN'S SCHOOL.....A LOT OF PEOPLE END UP WORKING MISERABLE LOW PAYING JOBS EVEN THOUGH THEY COULD GET BETTER JOBS IN THE SAME CITY.

ITS ADVANCED SLAVERY.......BEWARE OF THE NEO-CAPITALISTS

Do you also realize Non-Compete prevents your employee who you've trained and taught your business secrets from easily resigning after gaining the knowledge which they can either use directly to compete against your business or join your competitor?

Haaland21:
That is why they call you headless mob....
The issue of defending the naira has long been clarified even by the cbn governor...

But you can't understand.

You trust a CBN governor to give you accurate info? When Emefiele was there all they were doing was hidden and they presented a different narrative to the public. I will remind you when the time comes.

Hahahaha. If you like bring 2 billion dollars. Those looting naira will keep mopping all the dollars, when CBN eventually gets tired of injecting $$ from foreign reserve our eyes go clear.

I searched herpes symptoms but it doesn't really look like it, besides I have already gotten herpes some couple of years ago, so I don't think I can get it again.


I will be brutally honest, I get 4 olosho when I dey Bleep skin to skin for ashawo house, but I two dun run test for me sha, hiv and hepatitis test which came out negative, they did the test last year August. So remaining two when I go beg to run test, so that I go get full rest of mind, if I dey Bleep.


I dey fear like this self make my wife nor go catch this thing when I catch so, because she dey pregnant and he fit go affect the pikin.

I'm not a saint but I'm disappointed in you. You have a wife who is probably faithful but you dive in raw into multiple prostitutes without protection? If you don't value your life at least pity that woman.... You can't be this reckless.

LegendHero:
Lol, Nigeria media and nonsense sensational reporting.

Below is a quick chart I did on the FX reserve data from CBN. You can see how the foreign reserve move average through the years from 2006 to 2024.

Cardoso paid over $6bn in FX backlog, repayed trillion from the way and means, where do they expect him to see the money aside dipping in the foreign reserve and borrowing from external source?

Even the Bloomberg report that they are all copying and pasting clearly mentioned the above in their report. Just that Nigeria media don't use brain in copying.

To all those kids screaming keep your dollar, how many of una even get dollars lol? For those with dollar, keep it so that your family can cry for you when you lose your life fortune.

God bless Nigeria.

From this, it means Emefiele did a great job.

flokii:
Emefiele is a disgrace to the South.. the attrocities the useless man committed was just too much.
This is his fellow Southerner that is performing wonders in the same seat as CBN Governor.
The main reason some Northerners are antagonizing the President and Mr. cardoso is because of the clampdown on their shady activities killing naira in their BDC business.

A Yoruba is not one to cower to anybody or region. We are equal stakeholders in this project called Nigeria and anyone who isn't satisfied can fvck off to Niger Republic or Chad.

Your reasoning is exactly why politicians with no brains will keep outsmarting people like you.

Your articulation presents a compelling juxtaposition between the critique directed at Emefiele and the accolades bestowed upon Cardoso, despite the latter's emulation, albeit worsened, of Emefiele's policies. Although seemingly surprising, allow me to delineate the striking parallels between their approaches and elucidate why Cardoso's endeavors fall short, exacerbating the prevailing conditions.

1. The proclivity to deplete our external reserves in the defense of the naira remains a shared attribute between Emefiele and Cardoso. However, it is imperative to discern that while Emefiele's tenure witnessed such actions, Cardoso's adherence to this pattern not only persists but manifests in a heightened magnitude, thereby exacerbating the strain on our economic fortitude.

2. While Emefiele's management allowed the naira to depreciate to the extent of reaching N620, Cardoso has yet to approach such a threshold, let alone surpass it. However, this disparity does not equate to a commendable distinction for Cardoso, as his failure to address the trajectory set by his predecessor indicates a lack of efficacy rather than an improvement.

In juxtaposition, Cardoso's purported superiority falters under scrutiny, revealing a continuation of detrimental policies with heightened severity. Thus, the narrative of commendation for Cardoso remains untenable in light of these observations.

People don't read.

I support everything if they can execute this project perfectly. It will drastically reduce travel time and also save gasoline. However, after such tolls I hope police checkpoints won't flood the highway

Fash20:
The US basically own these economies apart from China. The US is rich. How many countries can loan this kind of money out.

Google countries the US is owing before you open mouth.

It's always the same trick and pattern.

The initial proposed increment is set within the range of N160-180 per kilowatt. To preempt any potential dissent or opposition, the figure is elevated to N225 per kilowatt. This strategic maneuver allows for a margin of negotiation, as any ensuing protests can then be met with a reduction to the originally intended pricing bracket of N160-180.

Hahahaha... If the govt wants it to work don't tell me agberos can stop them, it's impossible.

helinues:
It's an open market

No one is frustrating anyone .

Air peace should have made proper consultation with other airlines before splashing the average airline ticket to UK.

Win win for the travellers as the airlines would drag themselves to the extent of free falling the price

The curses and the poisoned salary you've been receiving to oppose anything that speaks the truth is gradually catching up on you in reality.

If a rational thinking person is paid to act irrational over a long time, there's a high chance irrationality will become his norm. You no longer possess the sense of logical thinking since you've acted St.upid for years

PressMyButton:
100% in support of FG. FG has been paying subsidy for darkness for decades. This is one of the many evils of PDP whereby incompetent cronies of government were sold NEPA while government keeps paying billions in subsidy to private owners to cover for their operating loss. Which sensible country does that?

You have wicked politicians who have zero accountability. Tell me what they have done with subsidy money they claimed to have removed from petroleum. Don't worry, let's keep cheering them, I can guarantee you a huge rebound will come one day and every one of you cheering them may be consumed when hungry citizens revolt.

Putindbutt:
Is it a crime to expose fraud on nairaland?

There's a huge price for exposing financial crimes and it will run into anything from 500M upwards for someone like Onyema... It's called whistleblowing. Why not make over 500M rather than give out 50K?

You see why I believe you aren't smart?

Putindbutt:
Onyema is part of the corrupt system. i don't have to petition EFCC, they are reading this on nairaland.

Take your complains to the court sir stop acting like a troll.
