The Presidency on Monday faulted former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s comments on the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road, describing them as a “misrepresentation of facts.” https://punchng.com/lagos-calabar-highway-return-to-library-for-real-facts-presidency-tells-atiku/ 17 Likes 5 Shares

This watery rebuttal by Bayo Onanuga further confirms that Tinubu has a penchant for dubious and shady deals. Bayo Onanuga didn't say anything about the entire cost of the project, which is being shrouded in secrecy. He didn't say anything about the fact that the Tinubu administration did claim that the project would be at no cost to the federal government, but turned around suddenly to approve a huge sum of N1.06 trillion that would be paid to the construction firm for the first phase of the project. Bayo Onanuga said nothing about the fact that the construction firm handling this huge project is owned by Gilbert Chagoury, a known ally of Tinubu. Bayo Onanuga also didn't say anything about the reputation of the construction firm, Hitech, or their penchant for abandoned projects. It is public knowledge that this same Hitech was unable to complete the 50-kilometer Lekki-Epe expressway despite installing two tollgates along the axis. Instead of providing answers to the vital questions raised by Atiku, Bayo Onanuga went berserk like a tribal and ethnic bigot that he is, dancing naked in the market, disgracing himself and his drug lord. 56 Likes 8 Shares |

I stand with Asiwaju Jagaban on this issue.I keep telling Nigerians that this project is already moving at neck break speed. For those that live in Apapa,one of the biggest problems in that community is the sole entrance and exit.Asiwaju understands that very soon,Dangote and the companies operating in that location will need another entrance apart from the Lekki-Epe-Ijebu Expressway If it is not done quickly, it will become a nightmare for people living there I was at Eleko Junction and construction is going on from the Eleko beach end to connect both the ongoing Dangote construction from his Refinery and the one from Ahmadu Bello Asiwaju Biggest Legacy for Lagosians will be to unleash the Potential of that massive Industrial complex in Ibeju Lekki 30 Likes 1 Share |

Since discussions began regarding the construction of a coastal road from Lagos to Calabar, the pace of approval has been notably lacking. It was initially conveyed that the company responsible for constructing this road would self-finance the project, only for the Minister of Works to subsequently demand funds for its implementation. Furthermore, upon examining the individuals involved in this venture, one cannot overlook the connection to the owner of Eko Atlantic. It is my belief that these individuals are aiming to expand their influence over all our coastal regions. It seems unlikely that this project will benefit the common populace, as funds that could be allocated to address other pressing needs are being squandered on initiatives that primarily serve the interests of the affluent. 4 Likes |

Look at the poor comments coming down from the so-called Southerners. It seems many of you are cursed and abhor development projects. Buhari built a transport university in his home state you all didn't see anything wrong with it, all the social benefits and cash transfer were channeled to the north, and anchor borrower funds were mostly benefited by northerner farmers. Buhari seeks a loan to construct a road linking northern Nigeria with the Niger in Maradi you all kept quiet. Now that Tinubu decided to construct a road in the south linking 9 states with coastal lines you all go berserk. What is the color of your hatred and jealousy that you so much detest development that would benefit the Southerners and the entire country? 34 Likes 4 Shares |

Whether it passes through due process or not, let the road be constructed so that it can benefit Nigerians. A lot of contracts for projects had passed through the due processes before, and the projects were never completed. For some, work never commenced. Contractors did not come to site. Abuja/Lokoja Expressway for example, is a little over 200 kilometres. Work commenced during Obasanjo tenure, 20 years after, it is still not completed. Now the government is matching words with action, but all some people do, is to complain and criticise. What do we want for God's sake? Nigerians would go to the banking halls, supermarkets, bus stops etc and do not want to join queues, yet they are quick to talk about due process. Nobody follows due process in Nigeria. Here is Atiku that refused to cede presidential ticket to the South pontificating, just to score cheap political marks. Thank you BAT for the project. 17 Likes 3 Shares |

Ttalk:Who are those who kept quiet when Buhari did all these things? We know them. Call their names. Don't paint everyone with same brush. Besides, how far with the university and rail Buhari built now? Where's the Anchor Borrowers Scheme now? If you mean Tinubu's big idea is to run same scam that was perpetrated by Buhari and you expect us to clap for him because it's his turn to do it then you need to check your brain. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Bayo Onanuga is right. The only lie in his response is he trying to exonerate the APC from all of this. I remember during Buhari's tenure that the obidients and people of South South blamed Amaechi the then minister of transport and the then law makers for their failure to expedite action for the approval of Lagos Calabar rail project while other rail projects across the country were approved. I have no words for Atiku. APC cannot completely exonerate themselves. Yes the cost of Lagos Calabar coastal highway may be shrouded in secrecy, but I'm more interested in it's completion. 6 Likes |

How is a coastal high way in all ramifications better than a coastal railway. In terms of efficiency and long term benefits a railway trumps road. With the added advantage of reducing the incidence of conformational changes to businesses and the environment. And a much cheaper option would be to provide more ports along the coastal axis. Why we continue to engage in wastefulness at the expense of human capital and development is bemusing. Side note: can they complete the refineries already? |

Southerners no get sense aswear! This is a Project that directly link 9 Souther States o! Buhari used Nigerians to borrow to tune of Trillions just to develop his Area and People, this Atiku (and the myopic ones supporting his view) lost his Voice and ability to criticize all those Years. Even as he was about leaving Office when he was supposed to calm down see Billions of Dollars that Buhari over-bloatedly spent on unprecedented Projects, Rails and other massive Roads in the North yet you won't hear Southerners do pim! Now that their fellow Southern is trying to Develop unprecedented Roads that Atiku or any Northern President would never have imagined or allowed it, it's still the same senseless Southerners that are saying bla bla blah! Who do una this thing?! 22 Likes 3 Shares
