Blue3k:
This guy's political pandering is disgusting at times but people don't notice it. The projet not being completed is all due to the irresponsible Cross River government who too lazy to conduct an EIA correctly after 3 tries. His thumbs up means squat. The state government threat to do it without approval is laughable. The Calabar Itu road you couldn't maintain without federal assistance now Super highway you will do? [/b]OK boss make a believer of us please .

Before anyone quotes me crying please read this.

Splashme:


Calabar - Itu road is a FG road, why should the state government maintain it? Your own mumu is beyond me.

UnknownT:
Would have loved to see the 3D picture of the road

Blue3k:


The point of road was to link proposed port to other states like Benue. The project is simply not thought out and just plain insane on other parts. They didn't factor in environment, feasibility or people affected. They wanted this highway to have WiFi... I'm not even getting into juicer details.

Aburi001:

Awho:
best news to start the month with

zoedew:

Every State in Nigeria should have a superhighway designed to traverse all its local governments. Overtime we had remained glued to the road design and network left us by the colonialists whose goals were purely to move materials to the ports for export to feed Her Majesty's economy. Prof Ayade deserves commendation. Environmentalists should instead proactively seek to make inputs into the project with a view to weaving the road around its wonderful forests in a manner that exhibits its beauty an essence for tourists and all to savor for economic profit

naturefellow:
you surely have no idea how much bad this news is to a certain group of people right now.

Themandator:



You have many decades to wait ....That short man is a scam.... He is doing nothing in the state ....Btw , I saw in the article that the conference centre inuagurated or opened , ,et it be known that Imoke opened it before leaving office

Awho:


indeed my brother the cross river wing of the APC et all. you sound like a cross riverine are you one?

naturefellow:
not at all. Only a concerned environmentalist from the West.

Awho:


oh great so what's your concern and where is the bad news emanating from. teach me

An alternative route for the highway has been provided which promises to minimize the environmental damage. But the question remains, does cross river state really need such a jumbo race course?

In case you do not know, cross river state is a biodiversity hotspot in the world (with unique species of birds, butterflies and mammals - drills, gorillas, etc., which are being conserved by WCS), attracting tourists and ecotourists to sites as Obudu Cattle Ranch, Cross river National Park @ Ikom, Afi Mountains, and especially those regions bordering with Cameroun.
Imagine this! Almost a decade ago, a Danish lepidopterist, Toben Larsen, single -handedly discovered hundreds of new butterflies in one afternoon after visiting a nature reserve in Bauchi. Also visited Ibadan-IITA and C/R and made pioneering discoveries.
Being an active member on a naturalist forum called iNaturalist.org, curators recommended that I visit C/R soon, especially, C/R National Park, Afi mountains, and other regions bordering Cameroun, just to obtain records of wildlife. As a matter of fact, i recently returned from Obudu plateau for a similar mission.
Nigeria is blessed in a myriad ways that only a few can duly appreciate.

Youngzedd:

That project is a full time scam.
