I'm very very sorry, abeg show me the recent pics form the advanced stage you are talking about.

Shey den don change the asphalt runway to concrete too in the advance stage?


Thanks in advance.

Ngwakwe: It's a good initiative and very commendable.
Notwithstanding, they should leave Lagos out of their Western Nigeria Protectorate or Regional integration.

What kind of people are you people? Do you people really believe the things you say or you just say things for comedy sake? Really?

Yes I am not a road engineer or engineer of any sort neither am I a contractor ( but with what am seeing with this concessioning of thing I might become one) . Yes I am not an certificate holding economist nor a financial planner but all I know is that we had been had, play like ping pong right from the start.



Yes it's good that its now in government hand but at what cost?



The initial plan was to upgrade and expand an existing road through PPP where at the end of the day, the investor will recoup their money back with interest through tolling and advert for a period of 30yrs.



but did they complete the road before tolling? no instead they completed 10 kilometer and start tolling and they have not even finish with the next 10 kilometer they are planing of hiking the fee up.



when was the agreement enter into and when did the project start? how many year did it take them to upgrade and expand 10 kilometers of road and at the space they where going how long do you think it will take them to cocomplete the the whole 50 kilometers of road before venturing onto the construction of the costal road?



And what is the essence of concessioning that project in the first place? is it not to reduced the financial burden of the state so that more fund can be available for the execution of other project?



Citing the devaluation of the naira as excuse hold no water because inflation would have been factor into the project when computing and projecting the cost of the project. Abi you wan tell me say na galloping inflation they happened for we country since the commencement of the project? or the materials plus equipment and the human resources are imported?



Guy, with my village economic sense, I and no serious investor with a conscience who value money will pay such a huge amount for such a right with the level of work carried out on that road.



Lagos state has buy out the right from lcc which means the right to generate revenue and finish the construction of that road. while lcc will be in charge of the road on behalf of the good people of lagos, and do you think they will do it for free? no



So who gain and who loose? lcc gain while we loose. There is no win win situation here for both party.



Ore, accept the truth, we have been duped of our tax payer money.



Oh, thanks for the insults, is a good sign that you love and care for me.[/s]

And I'm still telling you that Lagos state buying out the LLC is a good move and the people of Lagos state stand to benefit immensely based on this move.. You have no idea what is going to happen regarding funding for the rest of this project so quit alarming yourself needlessly...

Your rants about whats too much is nothing but your own warped internet opinion since you are not A road engineer or contractor, you are not an economist of financial planner with any kind of knowledge regarding this project, you have no financial data and you know nothing beyond your ignorant opinion which sadly you are entitled to...

Turai part 2....

enm: No what we saying base on what they "LASG " are saying is that the " bond " purpose is for buying of the "RIGHT HOLD BY LCC IN THE PROJECT " now after sourcing for such amount to buy of the right of lcc which to me is way too much out of this world, where will the government source for fund to complete the project?

Guy this thing na simple thing, is not that difficult to understand. Remove all the big grammar and you will know that we have been played.

This is a legallized 419.

Question is how much did lcc spent on the project ( don't add the 5 billion of lagos state money) and how much have they realized from the project through tolling and advert

Don't forget they supposed to have built the whole road before tolling . Ore a ti wo one chance.

Architectural drawing is now the new definition for village world class project. Please stick to your village borehole and plastic container...


This is definitely the cue to ignore this joker from here on. This is about Lagos state and not your village...

Like I said, tribalism and bigotry is what's driving your idiocy and I saw you from miles away..

Above is your world class village..

Boss13: The bond is to buy the concession rights and not to complete the road. The govt will still source funds for the road. We are yet to know how they would source the funds. Previously, Lekki-Epe expressway was not included in the budget but now it will.

I think you are impatient to read. Go back and read again.

1. What is the difference between buying back the existing road/toll plazas and taking over concession rights?


2. Are you saying after buying out the LLC, the road still doesn't belong to Lagos state and they still have to wait for 30 years before taking over the road and toll plazas?

Boss13: The annoying part is that no infrastructure will be carried out with the bond.

So they are buying an invisible infrastructure with the proposed bond offering? So Lagosians are currently driving on invisible road and they've been paying tolls to invisible entities and the Lekki toll road doesn't exist?


These half backed and thoughless posts are getting tired...

[quote author=MostIncredible.DFirst]Go bak n read my comment in d proper context n perspective in which i posted it, n stop being stup!d.[/quote]Does it really matter what silly and ignorant contex or pointless parspective you posted your rubbish? It was pointless and ignorant. It's not like you really give a damn about Lagosians since the only motivation for your idiocy is your tribal and village insecurities and sentiments...kind of exactly what we expect and get from tribal and village degenerates like you

Below is one of your odious, rancid and disgusting tribal rants...


[quote author=MostIncredible.DFirst]hahahahaha ha ha ha ha ha! All dis clownish amala-yoruba people. I HAIL O![/quote]Dou you losers really think we don't see you coming with your tribal and village acts..?

[quote author=MostIncredible.DFirst]U sound like a FO0l. Check ur dictionary to know wat "bond" is! After which u'll know who will ultimately repay d bonds.[/quote]Let's just say you are right and they have to repay the loan or interest on the loan.


What is wrong with the state taking out loans to build infrastructures especially one that's already on the ground, functioning and benefitting Lagosians?

Your argument sounds pointless and redundant.

[quote author=Adm. Yamamoto]Investment and business opportunity WILL happen regardless of whether the clueless dumba retardeen GEJ is president or not! However, it could happen at a MUCH slower pace like it is doing right now. Or, when it happens, there are GAINS on one side but losses, leakages and corruption in MANY other sides, the job the retardeen is supposed to be doing! So, 5 steps forward, 10 - 15 steps backwards! Dangote, signs a business deal of $ 6 B = N 900 B for a refinery that maybe lasts 10 years before NEXT big maintenance but the retardeen's USELESS government in July 2013 ALONE oversaw the STEALING of N 365 B, do the maths! It doesn't matter what you say or think, the evidence of the MOST USELESS and CLUELESS president ever in Nigeria, GEJ, speaks for itself![/quote]See as you just demolish 2 birds with 1 post.


You demolish the ignorant and clueless poster and GEJ at this same time.


lol...nice move

software man: Actually it seems to me some people here do not even understand what is being discussed.

Once they see lagos state, tinubu or fashola's name, they jump on the bandwagon and start spewing senseless garbage.
There is no cancelling of concession here. The right word is acquiring the existing concession rights.

there are several reasons a government might want to do this.

I wont take them seriously since the foundation for their ignorant argument is never rooted in common sense and facts, but ignorance, politics and petty tribalism.

Wow!!! This is not only a great move, it's a very wise and prudent move.


This is another great addition to our fast expanding public infrastructures. Having this wonderful infrastructure now to do what ever we want to do with instaed of decades from now makes a lot of sense.

This is a good buy back and administrative move.


Eko o no baje o

We need competent, focused and dedicated leaders who can put there money and commitment where there mouth his..
