This is the Lagos Calabar Propaganda Highway of the APC Agbadorians Government

This road will not get to 15 percent completion during the whole of Tilumbu time in office.

We have important roads like the East West road and the Benin Abuja begging for attention. Ekpoma close to AAU is an eyesore. But instead of FG to focus and complete these ones they want to start a new one.

This is like a man who builds a bungalow house to lintel level and then stops it to start a mansion. The Tilumbu led FG lacks direction. You can't govern with Propaganda

Here goes another Obi supporter. People that think through their anus!

Come on stop it. How can a whole federal government of a large nation refuse to build new roads until the old ones are fully repaired? If there were budgetary constraints I might understand your argument but funds have been allocated and work has started on some of those roads you mentioned. The fg is not the contractor building the road so there is no suggestion that their attention would be divided either. Its simply a matter of awarding the contracts to solid companies and doing the necessary monitoring.

God bless Nigeria 🇳🇬

You be true son of your father,you truly know what's up,it's a scam project,it's their own conduit pipe to loot,
The white elephant project cannot be sustained

Hmmm. This is a bold move by Federal Government to quickly advance the project and its compensation process.

May God bless Nigeria for ever! Check my signature for free stuffs!

Will tenants residing in rented apartments in the buildings compensated?

15 trillion is a lot, government should compensate those living in the buildings...I never heard of anyone compensated yet.

Flame333:
I haven't heard anything about fourth mainland bridge in months or is it just a virtual bridge for campaign..

The Lagos state governor said the infrastructure financing was too humongous for the state to handle it without federal support.

To me, the state government can invest in large ferries to carry cars across waters instead of building such a bridge. Many developed countries are doing it.

Watinhapen:
It’s not that this project will ever be completed in the next 50 years. They just want to be demolishing buildings. That’s all they know how to do best.

U talk pass this 1 for 2nd 9ja bridge and lagos ibadan railway.. May the developement of Nigeria continue to give una pain.. U r free no to ride on the road..

Why are you so cynical? Why don't you wish for it to be completed on time and be open for use?

What happened to Lagos - Calabar standard rail Way, is it not better we complete that one first before thinking of another project ?

Both are planned to go on at the same time. To avoid destroying people's buildings, the rail-line is expected to start elsewhere.

Atiku has condemned the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway. Peter Obi has condemned it too, by stating it is better to fix old roads than build new ones.
https://www.thecable.ng/obi-lagos-calabar-coastal-highway-a-misplaced-priority-may-not-be-completed-in-30-years/
Obi previously argued that infrastructural development does not mean economic rejuvenation.
https://www.nairaland.com/7700390/peter-obi-infrastructure-cannot-economy

There is also the CEO of one resort making noise about not being consulted after he encroached into FG's land. Rufai Oseni of Arise News also spoke against the project. Same Rufai Oseni spoke against the Lagos rail project until the project started working and he had to eat his words. David Hundeyin lied that Dangote Refineries would not work until 2025.


Let us remember that all these people supported Godwin Emefiele when he manipulated the naira and killed businesses and wiped out over 20 trillion naira from the economy in a bid to frustrate Tinubu from winning the elections.

A common denominator among these people and the sudden suspicious evil political awakening in Nigeria is the hatred these people have for Nigeria! They don't like Nigeria, they never did. Their anger is fuelled by their hatred for the leadership that crashed their hopes. The Lagos-Calabar coastal highway is a project that was mooted more than 50 years ago, but never took off. As far back as 2015, Ben Ayade invited Buhari to turn the sod to begin construction, but it never took off. Instead of silly dilly-dallying through needless bureaucracy, Tinubu got the project off the ground, gave it to a Nigerian company and enemies of Nigeria are against it.

To Peter Obi:
(1) The US invested in massive infrastructural development during the Great Depression through an initiative of Franklin D. Roosevelt to spend America's way out of recession. It is senseless to argue that infrastructure does not tie to economic development.

(2) Visiting the US, you'd see a vast network of inter-state and intra-state roads, some of them needless, but most of them tolled. Along these roads, you'd find gas stations, restaurants and shops. That creates employment and revenue generation.

(3) The first of UN SDGs is reduce poverty. Any steps taken by anyone to reduce poverty, including poverty of the mind, are welcome.

To Atiku:
(1) The money for the bulk of Nigeria's development come from the Niger-Delta. Your opposition to the project is an indication that you do not want a legacy project cruss-crossing the Niger Delta because money is involved. Qhy do you make yourself an enemy of the Niger Delta?

(2) You claim Tinubu awarded the project to his allies, Hitech Construction without competitive bidding. How come El Rufai accused you of fighting him over the sale of government assets to your own cronies when you were vice president? Even Obasanjo accused you of being desperately corrupt and said he won't be forgiven if he supports you. If what these people said against you are not true, WHY DIDNT YOU SUE THEM FOR DEFAMATION? Perhaps you don't want more can of worms to be opened?

(3) You had a significant interest in Intels, that was involved in NPA contracts. Was this proper as VP?

Then to the resort CEO. Whoever told you Nigeria's shorelines and beachfronts belong to you? If your business is in the right of way, shift it. Blackmail will not work.

To all the enemies or Nigeria, may your evil wishes upon this country never come to fruition.

. May God bless you... Need say more?

And they'll end up taking more than 8 years to complete it.
A tactics they'll use for reelection.
An elephant project that serve no use and purpose to the large masses.
What happened to making electricity stable?
What happened to ensuring we have more refineries?
In some states in the USA, they have up to 8 refineries, THAT'S JUST ONE STATE.

This is not what we need for now. The federal government should build a bigger brewery bigger than that of Peter Obi own and also solve the issue of MALE GIRL crisis in the whole 36 States

This government is hopeless and visionless. Is a white elephant project our priority at this time. Rendering more people homeless and the economy is tatters.
This is the worst government Nigeria ever had.

Toh

gaskiya these likes are not real. Are likes generated on nairaland? As in fake likes? Coz how can you just type "toh" and have 21 likes on a thrad with no traffic in less than two hours? Those with meaningful comments barely have that amount

Go to court

In as much as this is a Laudable project, why are our leaders unconcern with improving Electricity in the country??

helinues:


Go to court

but I don't know you. Who do I sue? Seun?

Blazetrailer:
Lol...this road is not getting to Calabar. I pity the gullible Nigerian believing the dummy sold to them by Tinubu. It will end with the 1st phase when it gets to the Lekki Free Trade Zone. That us the only viable portion of the project, then it will be abandoned afterwards. The target is ti create a highway between the new commercial centre of lagos, the refinery, seaport, airport and business areas in Lekki, to the Eko Atlantic city for the Chagourys who helped to fund Tinubus campaign.

Same thing I've been telling people. They knew there'll be uproar if they said they are constructing a 47km road all within Lagos state for more than a trillion Naira. That's why they added the Calabar part.

Tinubu will go down in history as the best president before his time.


Watch it.
Apart from experimental subsidy removal, which president has achieved in infrastructure in less than a year?

You don't even know where the first phase will end and here you're comfortably making an ignorant comment

This is a misplaced priority and huge nonsense. The fund using for this road that has many alternatives can be used to fix electricity in Nigeria. Leaving Nigeria Electricity in this condition is intentional by all this morons we call presidents.

Stop lying... You must be Misplaced Priority supporter

I really feel bad for those that's will loose their property, their are some generational family heirlooms that will be lost , that is the only earthly possession the entire family owns. So sad.

Paraman:

Another daft response from one of those whose heritage is being sold for pittance. The phase they are interested in is to lekki free zone and not lekki phase one,my friend. You can label it any phase you deem fit

That's a good plan if it really the way it is.

I am not surprised you are sounding stupid, that's Hallmark of Agbado miscreants

Another bitter Obi supporter spotted!

There are lot of existing federal roads that are in deteriorable and bad conditions..they would had used the money for this coastal high way road to repair, rehabilitate construct and upgrade the existing federal roads that are in deteriorable and bad conditions...,many nigerians, communters are going through a lot of difficulties in those bad federal roads

You obviously didn't listen to his last media chat.

Have a nice day in your ignorance.

jkpbestseries:
people should be compensated ooh

Unfortunately, most of them would not be. Don't those bold face promises you see on TV and news paper. As a man who had experienced injustice, I can authoritatively tell you that most affected person won't get any compensation, instead they would tossed between government departments and beaurecracies.
