Wetin concern dollar rate with road construction ? Was the contract awarded in dollar or with dollar rate ?!

Bro please I would like you to some research before you come online to type what you don't know. What sort of dumb question is this?

Ok lemme ask you, the prices of these materials when the contract was awarded in 2021 are they going to be the same in 2024.

Please God gave you brain to think, used it!!

Infact lemme give you an example cos your brain don't function properly. In 2021 cement price stood at 3500 but now it's 9000 or there about. So lemme ask you a simple question.. what made it go high?

Alaigbo:
All you paid obidient ipob paid apologist lies so shamelessly n foolishly to say the least.

Dave Umahi was clear with the detailed cost of every inch of the road. He never said any investors had any hidden cost like you claimed and should be jailed for.

You claim FG pays only ₦4b as part cost of ₦17 billion per km. Dave Umahi came out on live TV to say no that is not the case when Atiku said the coat was ₦8 billion per KM but here you claiming it is ₦21 billion per KM.

Now tell me why you should not die in jail for this gross lies even when the minister came out specifically because of this lies ?

So because you want to defend a fraudster Alex Otti over inflated cost of constructing a 6 lane road at ₦4.5 billion you do not want the gullible foolish obidient following you to know the coastal highway you accuse Bola Tinubu of looting from or with cost ridiculously much less at just about ₦4 billion for 10 Lanes per/KM unlike the small 6 lanes by Alex OTti.

Alex Otti 6 Lanes = ₦4.5 billion per/KM
Bola Tinubu 10 Lanes ₦4 billion per/KM

The emboldened is the cruise obidient are hidding from those of your that can not tell the difference. Tinubu is the thief but he his building 10 Lanes @ ₦4 billion while Alex Otti like Peter Pandora Obi is the saint that does not steal yet he his building just 6 lanes unlike Tinubu 10 Lanes at over ₦4.5 billion per KM.

Which means if Alex Otti is to build 10 Lane road he will charge Ndi Anambra ₦10 billion per KM. You should also note that this Alex Otti ₦4.5 KM road is being washed off by rain as we speak in Aba while Bola Tinubu coastal rain tanda gidigba with the heavy witnessed in Lagos.

Ok use that same N4billion and multiply 700km and see if you get 15trillion. Or are you now saying the total cost of construction is now worth 2.8trillion?

seunowa:

See another ignoramus calling someone a blind follower. I don't know why most obidients have weak comprehension

I guess you quote the wrong person.

Mikespecialone:


Oya drop your own explanation then

There are over 6 bridges that will cover over 50klm. That alone should tell you that the coastal road will be expensive than the 6.7klm road constructed in in the city.

So many hateful comments. I reserve my comment.

idealogical:



Your numbers are wrong and grossly deceptive.

Read below. The total cost is N2.8trn @ N4 Billion per Km.

Story

Project cost is #15 trillion and FG contribute about #2.8 trillion and #1 trillion had already being appropriated.

The schedule is 8 years.

Now use your sense. Would FG appropriate nearly 50% of the project cost in the first year for a project that will run for 8 years?

Common Sense should even tell you that government is not spending #2.8 trillion on that road.

It's a 10-lane road, with rail track, pavement of up to 1-meter to protect vehicles from plunging into the river.

The average of cost of laying a standard guahe rail track in Nigeria is $6.9 million, which is over #6 billion today.

So, how the FG wan use #4 billion to build each KM of the road?

😂😂😂😂😂

yoruboid:
The PH-Aba Road is a 6 lane road which is not concrete and is 6.7km under Otti costs N30bn which is about N4.5bn per km

The FG is building a 10 lane concrete road from Lagos to Calabar and it costs N4bn per km

Which should ordinarily be more expensive?

Nice observation.

However, consider that your comparison is between a Tier 1 construction company and a Tier 2 or 3. Their bills can never be at par.

I really do not know the details (scope) of the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway but PH-Aba road contract includes a flood control mechanism which is not the usual embankment and channelling system. I learnt JB is to make provision for underground water collection system like tunnel that would empty at Imo river.

The level of dilapidation of PH-Aba road is quite disturbing that up to 20% of that cost MIGHT be spent on recovery of earth, cutting anf filling because most part of the road had either become a dump or flood site that they might cut up to 1 meter of earth to get a solid base.

Nonetheless, if it were Dave Umahi, he would have employed a different approach to reduce cost which include using alternative but competent construction companies and spearheading the supervision to ensure best construction practice at minimal cost.

Stop lying na. This shows you have never used that route before. Aba Port Harcourt is actually 61.75 km. Simple Google search could had corrected your ignorance

The op is something else! How did you come about this figure? You just coconut anything and spread lies like rainfall. Umahi came out in national TV to state his but the one of Otti how did you come about this news and figure? Fake news is an offence

It's Ph.D not PHD

seunowa:

Keep your mouth shut and stop peddling ignorance. Someone just exposed how shallow you can be but you will never learn. Concrete road can last over 35 years. I don't know if Alex otti's road can last 7years.What is important to me is the quality of the projects

Aba PH road is done by Julius Berger. They have a track record for building quality and durable roads

seanfer:


This is the dumbest explanation.
How many bridges are there in the coastal road?
How many bridges are in the 6.7klm road in Abia state.?

Including compensation for the affected properties

Dave Umahi said it himself that it 4 billion naira per kilometer

OfficialAPCNig:
Ignorance is a disease.

Going by the agenda you're trying to set, the 700 KM Lagos-Calabar coastal road which costs over #15 trillion is about #210 billion per KM.

But that is not how it works.

I'll spare a minute to educate you and other ignoramuses.

Port Harcourt road is a 6.7KM, 6-lane road, making a total of 40.2 KM. So, at #30 billion, the project cost works out #746.3 million per KM. So, Abia State government is spending less than #800 million per KM.

Again, the coastal road doesn't cost #4 billion per KM.

The project costs #15 trillion and #15 trillion for a 10-lane 700KM is around #21 billion per KM. The project is a PPP between the FG and Hitech bears the bulk of the financial burden. The #4 billion you quoted is FG's share of the cost per KM, while the private sector will source the other #17 billion per KM.

The FG is spending a little over #2 trillion on the entire project, while Hitech will source the other #13 trillion, that's why the road will be tolled at #1,500 per car to recoup the cost.

To even make it clearer, the road will carry a standard guage rail track and the average cost of constructing a KM in Nigeria is $6.91 million, which is over N6bn today.

If rail track alone will gulp N6bn, now how FG wan use N4bn to construct a KM of 10-lane road.

😂😂😂😂😂

You a liar

Dave Umahi said it himself that it will cost 4 billion naira per kilometer


The amount you quoted probably includes compensation for the affected properties it is true

Stop lying


Dave Umahi said it cost 4 billion naira per kilometer

And total cost is 2.8 trillion

If it costs 4 billion per KIlometer, then how much is the standard rail guage?

You that is not lying, are you aware that a KM of standard rail guage costs $6.9 million?

That's over 6 billion Naira.

ALEX OTTI is only good at fake promise to his people, nothing is happening in Abia state

An average Ibo person enjoys the Fake promise of Alex Otti so that they will use it to sell Obi Peter...
Alex Otti might even embezzle all the IGR in the state for the next four years ....they don't care as long as they can use his name and Geo metric power project to sell Obi-Peter for the next presidential election

Ibo people want to grab power by all means ...there is nothing special about Obi ...as a matter of fact, if Obi go Anambra state to contest for governor position...he can't get a majority vote ... nothing special about him.....but the Ibo people see the Obi wave in the last election as a means to grab power and Aboki people discovered that political power in hand of any Ibo man is a disaster to Hausa /Fulani people.....they prefer to give Yoruba people that they are sure of recovering the power back after the expiration of his tenure than an Ibo man ....who hasn't forgotten the pain and agony of civil war
