This is why I am more comfortable addressing the VP as Prof and not Pastor. Addressing this one as a Pastor tarnishes the name and body of Christ.
Does he even travel by roads? APC is a wrong association for anyone.

I am thinking east west road and its link up bridges,auchi road,abuja and all those roads that Lagos built on behalf of the fg and collected the money back
Those roads were remedied. I'm thinking only of the Benin Bypass but I think it's over ten years

Oga mi, please read the story well. Osinbajo said no new Road was built. Road repairs is classified as road building too, but it is not classified as "new Road building."
Guy jump.it means you are living in same basket as the Pastor. Have you been to the East West rd?or was it his church that built it?Stop supporting with existing sentiments.I'm xtian but I'm highly disappointed in this po.

does it mean the youths are so daft. he said.. "the didn't build a new road" and not rehabilitation of road..... if the did den, name one.... and stop spewing gibberish.

You have to worry for the youths of this country if they cant decipher simple sentences. The future is very very bleak. Look at them in their thousands showing their stupidity on this thread.

Lekki-Falomo link bridge was non existent in the last 5 years. Kaduna-Abuja Rail was non existent before. All these are brand new. they opened up a new corridor to a new neighborhood. That's what constructing a new road means.


So help ask the foo.ls on this thread to name one single new road that was designed, constructed. It means we have no foresight if we are not building new roads and opening up new frontiers. Which we need seriously, if we are to grow.

You may be delighted as I'm sure the limitations of your understanding would allow you, but again cleaning up old rail tracks and what would be considered biannual maintenance in most climes, throwing paint on old existing cars and doing it the upholstery, is not a rail project.

You wey your understanding no get limit, please tell us why Buhari and previous military and civilian Heads of state and president left the rails to rot away UNTIL Jonathan came along.
Thanks.

I hope you don't have to go to the UK to find the answer to my very simple question oh. grin


You should go to UK and see what is being done at the cross rail project to understand what is meant by a rail project, even small poor Ireland have been able to between December and now lay what is effectually seveela kilometres nof track for the luas citi link to link the two lines.

I'm an engineer forgive me if I fail to be moved by what is less than mediocre. What Jonathan presented was nothing more than a regular repair job, the train system was never dead in Nigeria as it was before it is just not used because it is not effective or attractive as a form of transportation.

Ameachi did not do himself any good either with hosnpoor showing at the monorail project but I'm sure lack of funds was his main undoing what can Jonathan claim, it is up to wike to complete the project is the project ID viable after consulting technical and business SME and stakeholders in the state.

I thought you said your understanding has no limits, but you obviously are clueless about macro-economics and budgeting/finance.
Otherwise you would have realised that the federal administration of Jonathan had a budget that was roughly 10 times that of Amaechi yet had to deal with:

- 143.3 million Nigerians (2006 census) compared to 5.19 million in Rivers i.e. almost 30 times, not so
- Army
- Navy
- Air Force
- Police
- Immigration
- Customs
- Foreign Affairs
- Embassies abroad
- Universities and other tertiary institutions in the 36 states
- etc.

as well as the Boko Haram terrorists.
Yet Amaechi abandoned the small light rail project in PH while Jonathan revived, refurbished, renewed and expanded our rail system.


Kenai:
The Rivers Monorail has already arrived...

And it's about to take off...

This why you guys fail exams. You should read/listen to understand and not just to retort.

Now, to buttress the points of the Professor.

The number of vehicle owners (and vehicles) in Nigeria has grown since 1999. We obviously need NEW roads. It is no longer enough to repair the existing ones and sit down as if you have achieved something great. I wonder why you guys celebrate mediocrity. Road rehabilitation and repair are routine activities of any responsible government.

The need for new roads for shorter travel cannot be overemphasized. Just like rehabilitating a general hospital cannot be compared to building more hospitals. We need more infrastructure.

If you didn't use all your time in school to learn insults, you'll have learned comprehension as well. Nobody is saying the bad roads should be abandoned. But if you don't build new roads you won't open up the hinterland and the cities would be choked with growing population. How many hours did it take you to drive from Marina Lagos to Epe ten years ago? And how long does it take now? The VP made a statement of fact, he didn't vilify anyone. He didn't call names. He wanted the Church to partner in development.

Ordinary to read a 10-line article have become difficult these days. How do you comprehend if you don't read it.

What the vice president simply said was building of completely new roads and not repairing existing ones. If you think new roads have been built, just mention a virgin forest that was opened up to give way for a tarred road. That simple.

Was there NO road whatsoever linking Marina to Epe, 10 years ago?
Was the road not rehabilitated and EXPANDED/DUALISED to cater for more vehicles and growing population generally

Okay, you do know the difference between a new road and a reconstructed road, or updated road.

Another aspect to examine is the ideao that both Yar'adua and GEKt only executed projects and contracts OBJ had signed and therefore cannot lay claim to it.

OBJ had alluded to this same fact more than once in the past makes it a somewhat valid fact
I get ur point that building roads from the scratch is different from, maintaining , rehabilitating, anyways that's y am abit non judgmental about his claims, anyways, time will tell on all these claims, am not just happy that the blame game is taking preeminent than actions for this present administration, we all know things were bad, we no longer need to be reminded as every slightest opportunity of Government officials.

Now, who will go to start building a "new" E/W Road when he can 'cheaply' remedy or upgrade or expand or dualize or repair the existing E/W Road?

Please, show just show us where a 'new' road is required to connect states in Nigeria?

Sir, when you hear that a road is being 'dualized', it means you are building a completely new traffic lane. Now consider it...what is it called, if not a new road?

Obasanjo endorses APC moves, as party leadership visit Abeokuta
22.Dec 2013

The push by the opposition, All Progressives Congress, APC to dislodge the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP received a boost yesterday as former President Olusegun Obasanjo openly threw his weight behind the APC’s current initiatives.
The APC leadership, comprising some national leaders and governors visited him Obasanjo in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital on Saturday to solicit the former president’s support for the party in the forthcoming elections.
The party leaders, which started converging on Obasanjo’s Hilltop Mansion around 5:22pm, included former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the party’s Interim National Chairman, Bisi Akande; former Head of State, General Muhammadu Buhari; former speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Masari; former Borno State governor, Senator Ali Modu-Sheriff; Senator Osita Isunazor; Senator Bukola Saraki and Lai Mohammed.
Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State came to the former president’s house in company with the former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commissioin, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu; the former minister of aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode and others in a convoy of three black jeeps.
Other APC governors at the meeting included Rochas Okorocha (Imo), Ibikunle Amosun (Ogun), Abdulfattah Ahmed (Kwara), Rotimi Amaechi (Rivers), Rabiu Kwankwaso (Kano) and Senator Abiola Ajimobi (Oyo).
The Chairman of the New PDP, Kawu Baraje led some of his members and the former Kaduna State Chairman, Yero Makama, to the meeting.
Presenting the party chieftains and the APC governors to Obasanjo during the opening of the meeting, Akande said the party was in support of the former president’s 18-page letter to President Goodluck Jonathan.
The APC National Leader, Tinubu who alluded to Obasanjo’s contribution to the building of the Nigerian nation, lamented that the country was divided more than ever.
Apparently referring to Obasanjo’s recent letter to Jonathan, he enjoined the former president not to shy away from speaking the truth.
Tinubu added that the APC had resolved to rescue Nigeria, appealing to Obasanjo to lead the mission.
“You’ve come out of tribulation and held the highest position in this country. We are here because of your courage. Nobody can say he has information more than you. You have surmounted a number of crises. Nigeria is divided more than before; to realise stable Nigeria, we want to encourage you to continue to speak the truth. We’re resolved and determined to rescue Nigeria. We want you as navigator,” he said.

what of the new ones GEJ constructed through SURE-P? Lets stop lying. APC is not giving us the expected change rather lying, deceit, tribalism, indiscriminate killing of people that voted them into power.

Ok, now, pastor accepted that GEJ administration worked on the existing ones, and the question is, when a dilapidated road is singled lane and you dualised it to double or four lanes with adjoining bye-passes, what can you call the road?

Old or new?

Must politician lie to stay relivant ?

He did not mention obasanjo because he is in the camp , politicians are not still telling the truth. As a true politician who wants to move the

country forward you must tell the truth.

Have you been to the north to see the universities and and schools built by the past regime?

so there were no roads leading to this infrastructures?


You Must NOT LIE TO STAY RELEVANT, THIS IS A HABIT I DISLIKE ABOUT THE APC REGIME, AM JUST IN LOVE WITH BUHARI

It is either some people cannot read or lazy to properly digest information. The quote attributed to Fashola is a lie. If you read properly, Minister of State, Adeyeye was a minister under Jonathan and not Buhari. It was not Fashola that said this but a minister under Jonathan. This is junk news from a junk website.
