This is a section of the concrete
road Dangote is building for free.

This is fully cement, stones & sand,
reinforced with 16mm ribbed iron rods.
No coal tar.

It is about 40km,
linking Obajana to Kabba in
Kogi State.

Nice one

The killings, division and economic strangulation is too much. This is not about hate for Buhari but of Buhari’s incompetence to lead a diverse and economically volatile nation like Nigeria. He might mean well but his very nature is injurious to Nigeria’s corporate existence.
You have come with the usual PDP propaganda again! Na so you wan lie the other time say banks no dey make profit!

Which economic strangulation are you talking about by Buhari? Is it the economic GDP growth that Jonathan met at 7.68% when he assumed office in 2010 & plunged it to 2.36% in May 2015 when he left office? Is it the external reserves that was plunged from over $50bn to $29bn despite the oil boom during his tenure? Is that not the real strangulation by Ebelemi aka the ineffectual buffoon? You think we've forgotten?

And what do you mean by ethnic/religious division? The PDP are the real devils there! Wasn't it the PDP that was already wailing even before the formation of APC that Buhari was out to islamize Nigeria, something that's clearly impossible? How do you think the Muslims & northerners will view the PDP with such demonic & divisive claims? They even shot themselves in the foot to the extent that in the campaign rallies in the North, Namadi Sambo has to claim PDP had more Muslims than the APC just because of the hatred the PDP started themselves.
What about the distasteful documentary by the PDP on Buhari when they peddled blatant lies against him & went ahead to talk about his dead wife again just before 2015 elections? Was that bitter politics necessary?

We remember clearly as we don't have short memories like the daft Otuoke fisherman sycophants & the unintelligent I-regret-voting-for-Buhari crew who have easily forgotten where we're coming from & expect Nigeria to be like USA in 4 years! We will remind you people when you shamelessly seek reelection under the demonic PDP after destroying the country!

Even though Yoruba's own Lagos, the state is a melting point for all Nigerians. Every residents of Lagos is a Lagosian irrespective of tribe. Therefore, all Lagosian will use and equally benefit from the road. This should not be tribalized.

What is desperate about awarding a road rehabilitation contract? Is it not the responsibility of federal government to build new roads and rehabilitate existing ones?

Have they completed the Lagos Ibadan express road like they completed the Abuja metro and the Kaduna-Abuja railways that was built by PDP.
This is simply an avenue for Buhari and APC to steal money through Dangote for the elections.

What percentage did PDP construct for their 16 wasted years? Buhari has done it from about 5% in 16 PDP years to about 70% in three years. I think you should be ashamed of yourself.

Ask Femi Adesina and stop embarrassing yourself with fake news upandan.

Previous Govts Initiated ‘Most Of The Things This Administration Is Doing’ – Adesina


A majority of the projects the Muhammadu Buhari administration is working on was inherited from previous administrations, the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity has said.

Mr Femi Adesina said this when he appeared on Channels Television’s special Independence anniversary programme on Sunday.

“Most of the things this administration is doing – 60 to 70 percent of them – were initiated by previous governments,” he said.

“That shows you that in the past a government will come and say ‘this is not our project’ And it will discard what was being done and start fresh ones.”

As a result, Mr Adesina said there are many half and quarter-completed abandoned projects.
But rather than abandon the project, he explained that the current administration will complete it.

An example is the Abuja-Kaduna rail project which the Presidential aide said was up to maybe 60 to 70 percent complete when the last administration left.

Re: Buhari Approves N73bn Road Project For Lagos, Okays Dangote As Contractor by Nobody: 7:23am On Aug 03, 2018
What I don't understand is why they are making it look like they are expanding the road to 10 lanes. The road right from time has always been a 10 lane expressway, and government has failed to realise that the problem of that road is due to port congestion and the fact that these same truckers and people living around the surrounding areas all block the drainage on the road, so even if they fix the road again, if you don't solve the issue of port congestion by opening up the port in other states, and also for Lagosians to be more sensible when it comes to waste disposal, five years from now we will still come back to this same debate.

I recall that Jonathan actually fixed the road from Coconut to Cele bus stop. I was working in Apapa then I saw the kind of drainage system Julius Berger designed there. If those drains are not blocked by waste and if the local authorities clear silt from there, and pressure due to port congestion is reduced the road will last a long time

idealogical:



It is desperation. The government should stop working and abstain from anything progress and development because it's almost election time.
I have said it time and time again that the biggest problem Nigeria is facing right now is not lack of money poverty or lack of basic amenities but the abject poverty of the minds that saturates the whole of the country particularly this generation youth.
To think that a so called youth is saying government should ground to a halt and Nigerians don't deserve development because election is coming says a lot about the average Nigerian mind.
Truth be told we deserve the kinds of leaders we get in this country SMH.

Dangote is not building Obajana road for free. The company will get tax credit for the cost of construction.
