Tinubu is not building new roads. Those roads already exist. The east west road is Jonathan/yaradua project and the calabar superhighway to north is buhari project. Tinubu just wants to put toll gate on these existing routes and earn money for himself through HITECH like he has been doing in Lagos. Yoruba people do not travel so they wouldn't understand that these roads already exist. It's only in Lagos lekki axis that I think he will do new road. The others are existing roads he wants to link up with and put toll gate. Very predictable selfish fool. But Yoruba folks expect we worship him for this daylight robbery. This is thesame strategy used in ripping Lagos state funds through alpha beta

Deco7:
Instead of Lagos to calabar coastal high way, why don't we support the Lagos to calabar marine door that is even more efficient and won't take up traffic from the already congested areas. Please o, people look at the map from Lagos to calabar, wouldn't sea travel be the best given the locations of both places. Hehehehe. Am I mad or is it these people who aren't sane


If the Marine door is well propagated, we can have Lagos to Connect Warri, Rivers, Akwa Ibom and then Cross River through the ocean route, totally cancelling out the need for super high way. Lagos doesn't have the stamina for everything to consistently be on the road. Are these people without brains ?


Unless it's an existing road route that's been extended, it leaves much to be understood. Cause seeing the road route, it's easy to say that roads should be in existence on the routes cited in the map

Ashirioluwa:
Truth must be told. Most of the local road construction companies in Nigeria can’t build a modern day road because they don’t have equipment to do this.

Those companies are founded by our politicians as a away to defraud the country.

Prenonjebose:

I agree with you on utilizing the sea to connect Lagos to calabar via warri and PH. The statement from the minister and the contractor is unclear as to whether they will be working on the existing lagos-benin-warri-PH-calabar route or they are planning another highway based on the rail line that was included in the road. South east was even mentioned in the corridor, and this route does cut into it. Well, we wait and see.

Blitzking:
A great project but would take a decade to complete..bases on previous data

BossGerald:
Isn't it the same already existing high way that runs through Asaba-onitsha-Enugu etc??


Which kind propaganda be this

Ikaeniyan0:
The coastal road is a new road entirely

You shouldn't be asking questions like this after reading the op post

Prenonjebose:

It is most likely going to be an existing road that would be expanded and rebuilt. I believe this because of the topography of the coastal areas from Delta through Bayelsa to Rivers. It would not allow for any new road.

Make a research about the bonny bodo road and see the wanders JB is doing there.

The coastal road is a new road entirely. Go through the post and read it again. You shouldn't be making this kind of comment after reading the post

Ruke1989:
exactly my thoughts. Those roads are already existing. It's only Lagos axis that new roads would be created. The so called cement road: would they use machine to grade off the existing bitumen road in the path they are mentioning? Why is tinubu putting toll gates on the south south road and not doing same for all federal roads in the south west and north? We don't have more federal roads than the north and south west. So why toll gate ? Federal government must stop maltreating the south south by treating them only as cash cow but not as a golden hen to be idolized

Bestmanfornow:

He is only close to Abacha and Tinubu, the picture with Jonathan was when Clinton visited Eko Atlantic city which Chagoury is funding

Beremx:
No be Tinubu get Hi-Tech?

ayokellany:
As for me I have no complain about politicians looting but they should build long last road that last forever like the ones I see whenever I travel about. That is my only problem with Nigeria politicians. Why must be reconstructe same road every 6-10 years .

Loot a trillion to do a good job do n let's know we are forever done we that so that even if it is at a snail speed we all can agree we are done with that n move to develop new road n area.

You will be surprised that since 1999 Nigeria as not build a single new highway, not even one beside this coastal road they are talking about, which might take 40 years to complete.

Is the oshodi apapa expressway not a modern way built by HITECH?

Deco7:



Go back to the map. This time, use your brain critically before you respond.

Jagaban2012:
Nah Tinubu company is Hitech....but Chinese plenty for this company

Ashirioluwa:



I have nothing against HITECH getting the contract; I was referring to local companies owned by Nigerians.

For your information, HITECH Construction Company is owned by the Chagoury Group, founded by Lebanese man Gilbert Chagoury and his family.
 

Gaddafih001:

He is the owner.
