Believeintruth:
if truly they did EIA and they didn't hurriedly rush the EIA they would have factored into account the cables especially the exit point of the submarine cables. also via their surveys all these issues would have been pointed out.

Oga no amount of lies and defence can change the fact that truly there was no EIA, the so called preliminary document was actually hurriedly prepared, there was no survey design at all on the path of the road.
Keep living in the past and denial. The project moves on and the vast majority of Nigerians are happy about that. That's all that matters. There always will be nay sayers who are jot happy.

It's a good project no doubt but the timing is the problem. That project will not finish in 4 years but the people can suffer for 4 years.

The project should have waited till there's stability in the economy because people can always go to calabar or rather have been going to calabar before now.

That money could have been put into Agriculture and boost food production.
First, the road is not expected to be completed in 4 years. No one have said that the whole road will be completed in 4 years.
Secondly, the govt is only financing 30 percent of it. Private investors are financing the remaining 70 percent.
If we should follow your logic, then 3rd mainland bridge would not have been built because there were other alternatives to going from Lagos mainland to the island. Buhari should not have built the 2nd Niger bridge because the original Niger bridge is still there.

That is why Govt should be sincere and actually do an EIA before starting a project if not you will not hear of all this.
Who told you that they didn't? The report is out for all to read. Go and read it.

Many more trash propaganda reports will still come out from those who are not happy with the projects. The important thing is to ignore those that have no valid points and focus on the goal.

So why are you asking telcos to plan ahead? We're they part of the project planning for the road?
In project management, they are part of the stakeholders, the govt will engage with them and make sure that any disruption is brought to a bare minimum.

He's indeed an impulsive FOOL because earlier today, I read that the Governor of the State of Osun, said his brother, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the Governor of Lagos State denied knowing about any relocation of Osun indigenes from Lagos to Osun as first reported by a so-called online publication. It definitely might be a false rumor since Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu denied such an event.

It's time for the FG and States to hold online and offline publishers of FAKE news accountable for defamatory posts. The governments have NOT shown seriousness in talking this menace that can easily destabilize democracy in any country. Period.

My dear,
The positive economic impact of good roads, pot-hole free good roads all over Nigeria is too numerous to mention, as with the positive impact of 24hr electricity, functioning local refineries, more investments in health and education, etc etc.
Do you my drift ?
If we cannot take care of the simpler responsibilities, it is delusional to expect to manage more complex and more costly ventures.

Does anyone still remember Tinapia?
It was supposed to do magic for our economy.
No one talks about it anymore. Why ?

If I'm wrong that this just another grand corruption loading, even if it well intentioned, the cost overruns will inevitably render it another white elephant project.
This is Nigeria. We know how things roll in this country.
Going by your logic, the Lagos state govt should not have tried to build the rail system that is now a pride of Lagos, because we still have many potholes in Lagos. Going by your logic Buhari should have built the 2nd Niger bridge since we have many potholes and poor electricity all over the country. Going by your logic Babangida should not have built the 3rd mainland bridge, a very complex and expensive undertaking.

There are always going to be many reasons why the project should not be implemented.
Tinapa failed but the Lekki Free Trade Zone has not failed. It is the site of the largest refinery in the world right now.

That road will be abandoned, its just for the purpose of looting by Tinubu
Abandoned like the Lagos train system or like Eko Atlantic that is now the home to the largest US embassy in the whole world? May be like the Free trade zone that is home to the largest refinery in the world. Ok maybe like the like the Lekki Seaport. All these projects have Tinubus's brain and hands on them.

Looks fine though, but here in NIGERIA we need to tackle poverty , insecurities and hunger.

This is clearly a misplaced priority.
So you rather tackle poverty and hunger by giving out food palatives and 50k handouts instead of investing in projects that will get you employed where you can actually make real money and ffed yourself?

This is the kind of shallow thinking that you get from Nigeria's so called "educated" youths then you wonder why the country if fvcked up.

The worst thing that politicians have done to Nigerians is those stupid moronic handouts that will only feed you for a week or two. INshed of giving you a fish , ask to be shown how to fish and you can eat for a long time.
Investments, will bring jobs directly and indirectly, people will get salaries and spend those salaries on products and services thereby creating more jobs .

The positive impact of the Lagos-Calabar coastal road on the Nigerian economy will be huge and generational.
I have tried to explain to some why this is a no-brainer but they seem bent on looking at it from a political and sentimental perspective.
Even if Obi was President and he proposed this road, I would have supported it with everything I have.

Nigeria has a long coastline and most are not been used to their full potential. Imagine how many beaches will open up from Lagos to Calabar. Imagine world-class hotels and the potential for resorts in many areas.


Look at it from the potential benefits instead of the potential delays and costs.

Projects of this magnitude will experience delays, cost overruns, and many other problems. But we must still start it and plan for potential hiccups as we go along. No matter how ell you plan there will be issues but that is not enough reason to back away form it.

If you steal 1 dollar from Walmart, they will prosecute you to the full extent of the law. Walmart is owned by one of the richest families in the world. There's a logical reason why they do that and it has helped their business. Most people now know that Walmart will prosecute you for any shoplifting. That's the way it is supposed to be.

A simple indication of where the cables here should avert any shutdown. These just looking for unnecessary attention and blowing up a mole into a mountain.
Even if there will be disruption in some service, the telcos should plan ahead and make alternative arrangements.

You don't stop projects because of potential issues, that's part of project planning. You identify potential hiccups and plan accordingly.

That's why you have project Managers, that's a big part of Project Management.

If you really believe that those people were paying 250k then you are one of the most gullible Nigerians. In the same way, one guy claimed that his business was worth $100 million on one show, then on another show on the same day claimed it was worth 200 Million dollars. I was just laughing. grin grin grin He's laying claims to a property that he doesn't even own nor ever purchased.
the sad part is that the lazy press and the gullible Nigerians just went along with the false narratives without asking hard questions.

My goodness you guys are so tribalistic - its stinks. I am really beginning to dislike Yoruba people, I had no idea you people are like this.
I thought racism was something until I discovered tribalism, Yoruba people - are you people this bad??
Henceforth I must avoid all of you until at least one proves themselves to be good.
Tinubu can be president for a maximum of 8 years only but this damage you are bringing on yourself with still follow your generations.
Pls get lost and don't come back. We could care less about how you feel. Your feelings are inconsequential and irrelevant.
If you dish out hate to others, you better expect hate to hit you back in the face. We are just getting started.
If you think that we will allow you to demonize us as you did to the Fulanis during the Buhari admin, then you must be smoking Mk puru mirri.
All tribes are hitting back at you not just Yorubas because of your ways. You always start something, then when others give it back, you start to play the victimhood slave card. In the same way, you started a war then when you lost, you start to blame others.

No tribe is even close to the Igbos when it comes to tribal and religious discrimination. It's in your DNA.

Get lost and don't come back.

Umahi will be elected the president of Nigeria while Peter Obi can only dream of such.
Umahi will be the next VP after Tinubu's regime.

Then he will run for the main office after that.

The man is smart.

Pandora can already see the writing on the wall hence his attack on the personality of Umahi. Nigerians trust Umahi, they don't trust Obi the liar.

Didirin. So I am automatically Ibo because I am against your BARAWO leader. Now because Obi and Buhari did not fix the roads every President should brainlessly follow suit even if fixing those roads will be to the betterment of the citizens and the Country's economy? You are daft and I won't waste time with an empty head and OLE AJIBOLE like you. I ask again will the Project be completed with your father's money? Oloribu omo.
Omo ale ni baba n la baba e.
Ode, ole, atole, amukun meko. Shallow, zero IQ cretins like this fool here is one of the reasons why Nigeria is backward. You are so shallow that you cannot see beyond your nose. You are either brainwashed or just born with a very low reasoning capacity.
Anyone with an ounce of common sense and not influenced by tribal or other factors will automatically see the benefits of such projects.
It's so easy and glaring to see that you have to be one of the dumbest fools not to comprehend the potential economic gains of such a project.

Let me educate you a little bit. Here in the US, we have many problems such as homelessness, crimes, people needing food stamps to eat, and many other problems. Does that stop the US govt from investing in new weapons, new capital projects, give out aid to other countries? No, it does not because while trying to solve those problems, you still have to invest in opportunities that will bring greater rewards in the future. The problem is that olodo monkeys like you are too dumb to reason outside of your closed narrative.
For your empty skull, countries borrow money to build such projects for many reasons. first, it is a trusted and tried method of jumpstarting a slow economy because once you pour money into such a project, it will act as a catalyst to propel the economy via multiplying effects.

Secondly, this project will open up so many areas that are now lying wasted such as untouched beaches in other areas apart from Lagos that are not even being used right now. It will bring in investments into those areas such world world-class hotels, restaurants, and manufacturing due to easy access to transportation, and many more.
The problem with losers like you is that you have been brainwashed and blinded by other factors hence you are incapable of seeing the benefits even if they landed on your nose.
I'm sure that you are either Igbo who understands Yoruba very well (I know some born in Lagos) or one of those "Yoruba but" blind omo ales.
If this project had been proposed by Obi, losers like you would be calling it the brightest thing thought of since sliced bread.
