Obviously, I was talking about the uncompleted and abandoned PDP federal projects that PMB is completing.
lol @ what concern the PDP.

Read the topic, look for PDP or just learn how to read and comprehend.

the subject matter is purely focused on a state project, a state that has never had PDP at the helm of its affairs. Why the diversion into federal projects?

They don't have to account? Because citizens/Lagos 'see' work supposedly going on? So where is the place of transparency that APC campaigned with? If they don't have to account then where is the integrity? What has become of the loans already collected by the State? Is the amount already spent commensurate with the proposed project, time already spent and the yet to be completed outcome? Have u tried comparing figures with other African countries? Would you be this obtuse and bias if it was another part other than APC that was the ruling party in Lagos?

Is the project abandoned? Yes Or No.


Is work going on as we speak? Yes Or No?


Lagosians are not irrational, ignorant or bitter like some people, the know work is going on and the project is still getting massive attention which the see everyday.


Worry about your village...

PDP is a national political party, not Lagos state political party and last time I checked. PDP is PDP regardless the subject matter.

Find something better to cry over..

Do you even understand the meaning of accountability? Irrational is when you see that a project that should have been wrapped up and delivered in no more than 3-4years is being projected to take up to 14 years and somehow no questions should be asked and there should be no accountability.

The PDP is a national political party, the same political party responsible for thousands of abandoned projects all over Nigeria, so that worthless party is the wrong messenger.

“It suffered delays as a result of partisan political differences in the last dispensation. After the first tranche was disbursed there was a freeze on the second tranche,” he told reporters.

dear tanoid -

http://thenationonlineng.net/200m-world-bank-loan-for-lagos-to-tackle-infrastructure/

The Federal Executive Council (FEC) yesterday approved a $200 million World Bank loan for Lagos State.

It is the second tranche of a $600 million loan which the state will spend on roads and other infrastructure.

Minister of Information Lai Mohammed and Minister of Power, Works and Housing Babatunde Fashola, who told the media about the decision of the FEC to okay the facility, said the state took the first tranche in 2010 when Fashola was governor, but the second was not approved by the Dr. Goodluck Jonathan administration for partisan reasons.

There was a mild drama at the FEC meeting as President Muhammadu Buhari surprised many ministers when he arrived at the Council Chamber venue 10 minutes earlier than the 10am commencement time.

There were only 19 of the 36 ministers seated when he came in. Vice President Yemi Osinbajo had also not arrived at the chamber.

The President noted that he came too early but he immediately called for the rendition of the National Anthem and prayers for the meeting proceedings to begin.

Osinbajo and other ministers arrived later to joim the meeting before the 10:00 fixed starting time.

Briefing reporters, Mohammed said: “We just finished the Federal Executive Council meeting and the major item which will be of interest and was discussed and which the Council approved is the memo which was put forward by the Minister of Finance for approval to obtain additional $200 million loan from International Development Association (IDA), which is a window of the World Bank in support of the Lagos State development policy operation.”

He said the loan will allow Lagos State to complete its very ambitious projects.

Fashola, who initiated the loan, noted that the $200 million loan was a segment of a $600 million loan for a programme of developmental initiatives for Lagos State, which was approved in 2010.

According to him, it was supposed to come in trenches of $200 million each year from 2011 to 2013.

He noted that the loans suffered delays as a result of partisan political differences in the last administration.

He said: “After the first tranche was disbursed, there was freeze on the second tranche. The initial agreement we had with the World Bank was a 40-year loan, a 10-year moratorium, 0.5% interest.


“But because of the delays, the partisan interference that took place, our profile as a nation also changed. By the time this one was approved now because of the delays, we had lost the opportunity of the 40 years, it is now a loan of 25 years, the moratorium has reduced to five years instead of 10 years; the interest rate has gone up to 1.25 per cent.

Why should we believe this coming from the interested parties who have a reputation for being demonic liars?
Fashola himself said with his own mouth that the federal government of Jonathan and PDP approved $1 billion (N160 billion back then) specifically for the light rail as I posted previously.
You should ask yourself how the $1 billion changed to $200 million. I hope that you are smart enough to ask and reason it out. Are you

Re: Lagos Light Rail Project Dragging Too Long — PDP by Cantonese: 5:25pm On Aug 16, 2018
I think we should reason properly. It does not have to do with political parties. PDP and APC are birds of the same feather. If it takes 14 years (not even sure) to complete one phase of the two phases, it will then likely take 28 years to construct the two lines. Even the blue line under construction has been overrun by refuse, bushes, mechanics, etc. When will the people enjoy these things? Contract sums are constantly reviewed upwards creating doubt about financial sincerity in the hearts of people. This country is in a complete mess. Our leaders travel abroad and come back to report to us their beautiful experiences. Until leadership is held accountable, the Nigerian society will continue to find it difficult to move to the next level.
