Very insensitive comment, a religious bigot, must you comment.

Splitmind:
The security situation is being overblown for the sake of making president Buhari and the APC look bad during the election period.

The opposition is really desperate this time around.

All over the country Nigerians are living their lives as they always do but one news story will cause unnecessary panic.

We need to do better as a people.

Understudy99:
I am not saying JB is incapable of delivering on guarantees; however, they are well capable of protecting themselves and their profits against acts of nature/Force Majeure. So unless, the Governor made them assume that risk by waiving that protection, empty talk on TV is not what is going to make JB deliver this project as scheduled, rather a cooperating weather, and JB being good at what they do. Hence, Governor Wike should spear us the narratives.

Understudy99:
Only if it is explicitly stated in the contract, not verbal guarantees. All of those positives you mentioned, if not explicitly stated and agreed upon by JB, if JB didn't waive the act of nature clause protection--which I can tell you categorically right now, that they did not--simply invoking that clause, negates all of that pluses you just enumerated. JB is no magician, road constructions have seasonal aspects and variations to it. As it stands, if it's a major work, like every contract delayed due to seasons, it will be subject to reviews, variations and inflation--paying 80% upfront guarantees nothing. HE just got played by JB's contract lawyers.

jamesversion:
In a runaway and inflation prone economy such as Nigeria's what Wike did by giving 80% is the most logical thing to do....unless ofcourse you want contractors to come back and ask for variation due to price changes.

Most contractors include validity period of the quoted contracts sum, if it exceeds such period it gives them grounds to ask for contract review hence variation but paying upfront you corner and compel them to expeditiously execute the contract within the stipulated time frame, it is also pertinent to ensure strick supervision to ensure compliance in both quality and schedule. That's basic logic.

Most procurement laws actually doesn't encourage paying that much as initial milestone but exigencies compels.

Not true in every context. When u are talking about two companies, for example, then u can say staffs. The staffs of NTA and AIT....catch my drift?

Dikaveli:

frog12:
wike is a dullard. who pays 80 percent up front to contractors na fools be dat. you only pay 50 percent at most.

Zchi1052:
Are in Nigeria at all?
Aboki used both of them and dumped their asses
Then Tinubu further used Amechi Extra and still dumped him

So what are you saying?
Wike still better pass Amechi
Wike still have some dignity left
