the UK has minimum corruption and they are efficient in managing resources for development. Can you give us the economic benefit to our nation? All our roads are bad without marking and road furnitures yet we are spending this amount of money on coastal highways that benefit the few who got the contract. The UK has a ministry that oversees and execute projects but here its contract to few individuals who lacks capacity to execute. It would have been better if we developed our seaports and railways in 8 years and we try to be efficient than building a road that will be abandoned in the next 6 years

Lagos coastal scam, Tinubu has failed Nigerians woefully

NkankaCEO:
One political dimension to the Lagos-Calabar coastal Highway is that it will kill the political will and investors motivation to build or develop deep seaport projects in other regions of the country.

The arguments will always be that- if you can move your container by trucks from Tin can, Apapa or Lekki Deep Seaport to anywhere in the country in record time, why spend $2B to build another? This argument doesn't take into consideration the regional development that comes from functional Seaports.

I don't mean to sound tribalistic, but this same subtle economic suppression of other regions is why the Ibom Deep Seaport project has not seen the light of the day. That project is located in Ibaka in Mbo in Akwa Ibom where the natural drought does not need the continous dredging that is required in Lagos Seaports. In 80% of Federal Government's mega economic projects and decisions favours Lagos, I hope indigenous Westerners won't ask why people are leaving other regions to Lagos.

Imagine how relieved Lagos will be if the Ibaka- Onitsha economic corridor is active. And before you blame the State Government, remember that outside investors fundings, 70% of approvals and licensing for Seaports projects come from the Federal Government.

For the Highway project itself, I commend Mr President and the commitment of the Minister of Works, Mr Umahi from Ebonyi.

Stupidity of the highest order. In a country with serious housing shortage, rather than confiscate the house and put it to other use, you spend money to pull the house down, spend money to clear up, spend money to change ownership, only to use the land and build something similar

What sort of Stupidity is this?

franchasofficia:
Nothing will return Bola Tinubu back to Aso Rock in 2027.

If Tinubu likes, let him appoint his son Seyi or his wife Remi as next INEC Chairman, it will never save him from the resounding loss he would witness at the polls, with or without rigging. The loss will be so woeful and pronounced that no amount of rigging can change it, thats it.


Whoever knows Tinubu should tell him to go and read: Nahum 1 vs 9 in the Bible.



God will definitely show Nigeria mercy and will not let this evil befall us again


Tinubu's regime have pushed many Nigerians into sin, untimely death, hunger and into abject poverty.


Many Nigerian families are scattered today all because of APC's 10 years of calamitous reign in Nigeria. Check the records since 2015 and you will see that APC must not be allowed to continue for the sake of Nigeria's future

After living extravagant & fake lives just to impress their fans on the Social Media, reality soon comes knocking on their doors after a few years of balling hard.

Majority of them are even hooked on dangerous hard drugs.

Criminal Code (Southern Nigeria): Adultery is not a criminal offence under the Criminal Code. It can, however, be grounds for divorce under the Matrimonial Causes Act (1970).

ACTUALLY MORE LIKE ADC AND PDP.



IF GEJ RUNS, HE WILL TAKE THE ENTIRE SS/SE




ATIKUU WILL TAKE TEH ENTIRE NORTH.



TINUBU WILL STRUGGLE WITH THEM IN SW AND THE MIDDLEBELT WILL BE THE BATTLE GROUND BETWEEN ATIKU AND GEJ.

lonecatt:
which pdp is he talking about .the one controlled by wike I guess
Showunmi is not a political insider and he just exposed himself.

lapintoz:
Some people no wan hear the truth. Their ears are deaf to any sense of reasoning. They have started voting on 2027 elections on social media ready.

I am sure by March they will announce the result for all to see.

Coalition of failures being led by a midget.

ogascomax:
Segun should go and sit down in one place. Who is still talking about Wike party. Party that Wike has stolen, kidnapped, destroy, captured etc.
PDP will come out distance 3rd if Obi and Atiku come together.

Racoon:
What the heck is this dude thinking? That Nigeria starts and ends with the north? Seems he has forgotten how he and his ilks supported the catastrophic Buhari to sectionalized this nation? My friend take a back seat.

Lol why I no go leave after buying Aso Ebi if I don't live in Benin still fly Plane or Bus...


With all this expenses I can afford any type of meal only to get to the wedding finding out nothing dey ground to guide....

runningriot:
The question is is the throne the Alaafin sitting on not for his Royal Highness Chief Gabriel? It was the Alafin that visited Benin and out of respect the Oba of Benin relinquished his throne to the Alaafin as a mark of symbolic respect and cultural affiliation to the Oyo empire. So the throne with Jesus' statue is not for the Oyo king Alaafin Owoade.

Biodun556:
That would be the work of his wife. According to my own perception, Christianity and Islam are no longer foreign to Yoruba culture. A practice that is in place for 100s of years is no longer strange it is a culture.

LagosOrigin:
Chief Gabriel igbinedion is superior to him so alaafin should go there and pay respect to his superior .

Alaafin even put statue of Jesus Christ in his palace ..
Well, it's good thing that he recognized Jesus Christ as his lord and savior.

Racoon:
These are the untouchable sacred cows terrorists the APC-led Buhari and Tinubu governments have given a leeway. Meanwhile, Tinubu supporters said Nnamdi Kanu should remain in detention?

This nation need to really discuss its nationhood again and again. Otherwise, this contraption of an entity needs to be dissolved immediately. I don't subscribe to this skewed, defective and imbalanced nation.

AndroBlaze:
Useni's family themselves will struggle to take ownership of that property as it was clearly proceeds from corruption.

That was why he had the underhand agreement with Ozekhome to give it to the latter as he knew he'd struggle to prove he bought it with legal proceeds from his career as a military officer.

You sabi!! Many gaulible ones here are busy hailing the British judiciary for a job well done not knowing it's an attempt to seize that property which would be a loss to Nigeria.

The UK will seize the property eventually, just like they did Ibori's proceeds of crime.

AndroBlaze:
Its really annoying to read how thorough and brilliant these UK judges are when they deal with cases of corruption....why oh why can't we have judges that are fortright and brilliant like this in this country and don't allow technicalities to ensure justice is never served. Compare this sound judgement with the judges that have started giving Emefiele back his loot on unbelievable mathematics.

If this was Nigeria, the judge, despite knowing the Shani sounds middle belt, the cousin is Igbo and the son is Yoruba, would allow this case to fly, exactly like that!!

As for Ozekhome, I have always known he was a criminal and all his pro democracy balderdash was for show. Oya now, go and enjoy your house in London you serial pretender.

Well done Judge, well done.

Here it is our own policemen that will be shielding the Chinese criminals caught within the crossfire just because of peanuts that they get from the nationals.

You will be surprised to know that Chinese have more power than you, a Nigerian, even in Nigeria..

You're not so smart, why do Saudi Arabia and UAE still need US protection if it was a noble policy?!.
Why is there ban on the church in Saudi Arabia, why's there no single church in Saudi Arabia?!.
Nigeria is a secular state and no government can control religion. We've had it during the barbaric era and this is the era of civilization and we will never allow such thing as state controlling the church. You can go to your Saudi Arabia, UAE and Iran if you want to be ruled by ISLAMISTS.
