Well if Bi-Courtney defaults on payments on MM2 why doesn't the banks take it over. That is a silly excuse. Banks have failed period. I am not holding forth for Bi-Courtney but who in his right mind will see a project that could potentially generate millions daily and not move on it. We can clearly see the results of the capitalization - bloated overheads, un-viable branches everywhere and yes more shops in Dubai and London. Let South Africa take over and let the Multichioce story start again. Nigerians amaze me. We criticize government day in day out yet cannot move a finger to finance a two hundred kilometer road. Yet those CEO's live in billion naira mansions in Ikoyi and grumble while driving their multi-million naira automobiles over pot holes they can be making a fortune from.

We can't take reasonable risk. Everything is short term. We cannot trust each other so we expect foreigners to trust us. What is eternally wrong in paying for infrastructure. We die daily, complain bitterly yet are unwilling to pay for safety. When we get to Europe and the US don't we. Government contractors don't want PPP and will do anything to sabotage it just as they have done to our refineries, power stations, railway and now roads simply because they are lazy, wicked and evil. They rather want multi-billion naira contracts out our non-existent and much hyped resources to eternally repair.

Virtually all major roads in Nigeria are eternally under repair costing billions without remedy. That is what we want. I've said it before even in one of the most socialist countries in the world - China, people pay for stuff. What we cannot pay for we do not deserve. Wake up Nigeria is not Saudi Arabia and never will be. It is not in our culture as Africans to wait for people to do stuff for us.

I don't know Bi-Courtney or Babalakin but what he says is absolutely true. Sorry to say so but let us ask Julius Berger and the likes to open their books and let us total what we have paid to them since the seventies to build us roads and bridges and why they cannot by now raise cash from the banks in Stuttgart (where they have been remitting huge amounts of money to) to participate in the PPP. We are just programmed for waste in this country. And here we are insulting our own, just a man, one man, trying to take the bull by the horns against impossible odds. Let him leave it and let's see how the road will improve. I think Lagos state has tried Badagry and has seen how easy it is. Nonsense.
