This week Wednesday i passed through the eleme route and the work is very impressive

That's good to hear

zero8zero:
Go & ask your father. You asked for an information, I obliged you. Then you asking me further foolish questions.

Lol.. Savage! 😂

Where is HITECH in this news?

Hemanwel:
@PressMyButton, what's the cost of this project?

Inasmuch as I applaud the FG for initiating this massive project, there should be transparency. How many companies bid for the project? Why was [b]HITECH selected? At what cost?

These are the controversies that becloud the project which the government hasn't provided answers to. There's no accountability.

Maybe oga T-pain is using the project as a conduit to amass money for 2027 elections.

BTW:

I won't get tired, nor weary of reminding you all that President Tinubu has less than 868 days to handover power to the next person.[/b]

Good job Engr Umahi

Oh wow great job LASG.. Years back I used this exact route alot thru Unilag thru Bariga down to Ifako-Gbagada where I lived then. I hope to take a drive there soonest to see this new road

Amazing job Gov. Sanwo-Olu.

Good topic Op.

Best performing overnors:
Peter Mbah
Babajide Sanwo-Olu
Babagana Zulum
Umar Bago
Umoh Enoh

I could add Charles Soludo & Rev. Alia

Good development.. More of these needed in the campuses and residential areas..

Too much carbon consumption

Hopez456:
This is crazy. You didn't see other agencies websites to clone but the country's secret service's. What was he thinking??

Lol.. I tire o

zero8zero:
Nigerian President is the most powerful, when he said the tax bills have come to stay, that statement itself is a law.

Gbam!

Omalicious1:
Later some people would blame INEC

Lol.. Failures blame everyone but themselves

This is embarrassing I must say. A socio-cultural group that couldn't successfully elect its leader.. They need to sort this asap

Very good. Kudos to the joint security forces

osuofia2:
Omo blacks are too greedy. Imagine someone stealing almost 60 million dollars. Nigeria Money no de finish

Lol.. 60m USD? That's chicken change bro. I bet the lady would've made up-to $1bn if not more!

Oil deals na in hudreds of milions to billions o..

DeLaRue:
It is laughable when I hear some people suggesting Mr Jonathan should contest again.

Probably the most ineffectual elected President in the history of Nigeria.

He was in power, but not in control.

Gbam! So much financial recklessness then

Very good development. Truly all these roads need rehabilitation.

Wonderful, honestly the state governors are hugely the reason why this country is making no progress after years of independence.

Honestly, the looting in the state level is nothing less of pure wickedness.

6 computers for 400M?

I've always been saying this. Everyone focus is always the FG.. Forgetting the State govts

Here's a Gov screaming that his people are poor.. Our Governors eh.. SMH!

“The state government is asking citizens to sacrifice by adjusting their living conditions. On the other hand, you see the same government engaging in wastage. How can you convince a man who has no food on his table that you’re buying six computers at the cost of N400 million?

Just see!

Good one.. Agreement on direct currency exchange btw Naira and Yuan should be paramount.

Changing from Naira to USD to Yen makes no economic sense

Brilliant write-up sir.
As the person you quoted rightly said, Turkey would've been Nigeria's best partner in arms production.

They produce more quality military equipment and abit less than Western countries.. Turkey isn't 2nd NATO largest country for nothing. I'd prefer Turkey...

But as you also rightly stated, China long standing r/ship with Nigeria dwarfs those two countries

romeodunn:
China has a more established logistical machine, they deliver on time, they are cheaper and their fighter jet engines (the WS10 and WS13) are more reliable than the Russian ones.

China is also cheaper, we can get JF17 block 3 jets, the HQ9 air defense system, and eventually the J35 5th gen jet for much cheaper than what Russia and Turkey would charge us.

And we already have a relationship with China that goes back years, I think this is a smart play on our part.

Very good

Tradepunter2:
Omool the slap was too hot for that poor child.... It could cause permanent deafness....

I tell you bro. 4 hot slaps to a kid.

Uranos:
Imagine how many lives those shipments would have claimed if successfully shipped into Nigeria. United Nations need to get to the root of it because it's glaring that BokoHaram are being funded by powerful people

I tell you.. This is really serious.

Congratulations Col. Yusuf!

Noted.

We hope for better security in 2025.

Gbam!

By 2040 all Nigeria states will be connected by Train.
Lagos to Abuja
Abuja to Kaduna (Done)
Kaduna to Kano
Kogi to Warri (Done)
Lagos to Ibadan (Done)
Lagos to Abeokuta (Done)
We need
Lagos to Anambra but I guess it will be after Lagos to Calabar.
Nigeria will be great again
Tinubu shld also work on food price.

Rightly stated

According to him, the bullet train traveling at 250 km/hr, will cut Lagos-Abuja travel time from 10 hours by road to just 3 hours. The Super Highway will reduce travel time to 5 hours.”

Guys honestly I can't wait for this project to become reality. We miss alot of quality and fantastic infrastructure other countries enjoy.

Lagos to Abuja route is just like Istanbul to Ankara (Turkey) route, I took the road trip to the Nigeria Embassy and it was fantastic..very smooth road. Also train btw Istanbul and Ankara very fast.

One really wish this quality infrastructure in Nigeria.

Commendable Achievement. I believe due to security improvement in the ND.

Kudos!

Kaa4:
BAT presented him because he had no choice. So when he was disqualified by the Senate (either at BAT instructions or otherwise) he was no longer interested presenting him again.

He would been difficult to control and manage

The man is too troublesome. I believe Tinubu was wise not to have presented him again.

Gbam! I believe this clarification

Good one.. but more importantly Govt must ensure the Smelting plant (ALSCON) in Akwa Ibom is revived and operational.

..

despite the country’s only smelting plant, Aluminium Smelter Company of Nigeria (ALSCON) in Ikot Abasi, Akwa Ibom State, not in operation since 2000

Commendable development
