confirm. Way to go

Confirmedzombie:
In less than 2hrs, Appeal court will vacate the Fubara kangaroo retraining order against the 27 lawmakers.

Fubara is a drowning man. All the igbos, ipob cheering him up will wail to eternity as Fubara will be impeached.

Nonsense

Did you not hear from Femi Falana that those confused 27 members that defected are no longer Assembly members?

Are you not aware there is a supreme court ruling on defection?

Wike miscalculated on that moved. Even if they vacate the order, the case will gone to supreme court, but why the matter is on going, governance and government businesses MUST go on.

See those members in 2027, as for now, OTILOR

Am sure even this man's wife and children have given up on Tinubu. Ebinpawaooo

Serious opposition indeed with mouth? The Empty Barrel will never enter Aso Rock.

All the media apparatus of ur strong man is focused on this mouth.

Nyamiriflathed:
Peter Obi is weak and not a leader. Any small resistance, he changes party

Oga strong man. it is good Peter Obi left and tested his political weight with an unknown party like LP. He garnered six million votes without a structure of criminality and without bribing any electoral officer
The weak man beat the strong man Tinubu in his home Lagos and Abuja.

If not for Wike's rigging and INEC chairmans switching off the server, he beat your strong men hands down.

Today the weak man is given ur strong men serious opposition single handedly

okkoo

interesting times ahead.

True.

Do you know that if the government really want to follow the rule book. All Landmark and other buildings around it will have to go down? The FG owns all the land within 250 meters or 820ft along the coast line.
Dave Umahi said the government is making us of only 100 meters around that coastline area and you're here blaming the government.

Let government follow the 250 meters and wipe out Eco Atlantic city completly. Please let them go on with that rule.

okoo

You made a design, people flouted it, you left them and started demolishing the properties of those who followed your design.

No be witchcraft be that?

The red line is the initial design, the yellow line is the diversion.

Why the change in alignment?

DSS is in sokoto to collect the okada they will use in chasing them

looks like there is an under ground plan to increase VAT and they have sent one of their confused stooges to test the waters.

Agreed on getting the facts right and that is the position I am speaking from.
The cost I have no details on...but the engineering, execution and social economic impact I can boldly speak about.

Yes there is the option of repairing existing roads which past governments had poorly built. There is also the option of expanding new fronts like the coastal road. Either way would result in a debate. A decision either left or right still has its merit.

As an Engineer, I prefer a standard concrete road running across the country and which is durable than fixing bad roads that might need to be entirely re-built if it is to be done properly.

RoW is RoW. Simple charting in surveyor general's office and sticking to approved boundaries would have saved some businesses billions of Naira in damages.

Compensations are paid to those whose properties are affected by any adjustment in the RoW and who have approved papers.

Just my professional contribution.

As an Engineer am sorry you are speaking ignorantly even after my right up. Am happy you understand charting at the suveryor generals office. Government initially designed a road. People did their chart in surveyor general's office and followed the design in erecting their structures.

All of a sudden government jettisioned the chart in surveyor generals office and foĺlowed and entirely different chart that will lead to serious demolitions with heavy cost and associated job losses.

As an engineer, why is government abandoning its original chart in surveyor generals office to cause this calamity?

But Alex Otti is constructing a mere 6km road in Aba at the cost of 30billion that he borrowed from islamic bank which is 5billion per kilometre and you obirodents are praising the waste.

Alex Otti is yet to borrow a dime. Stop lying. The last statistics released showed same.

All these confused agbadorians. Besides counter what I wrote with facts. You can open another thread about alex otti.
Ode.

There are certain questions begging for answer as regards the Lagos Calabar coastal high way, and by extension the situation of landmark and other property owners that will be affected.

First and foremost, there was an initial road design, which property owners around that area followed and observed before erecting their structures.

All of a sudden, there was a change in design. Land Mark was given a seven days notice which was later extended to 14 days. This change in design is going to cost govt more because compensations will be paid to property owners that will be affected.
secondly, there will be great loss of jobs as businesses will be destroyed. The initial design avoids these unnecessary demolitions and saves the govt billions. Jobs will also be saved, why is govt embarking on this frivolous spending and wrecking of businesses when there is a better alternative?

The cost of the project and the way it was awarded is also an issue of National concern. The project cost is at #4 Billion per kilometer. Total cost is about #16 Trillion. The entire 36 states budget is about #14 Trillion. Already about one trillion naira has been paid to HITECH.
How are they going to source the #16 Trillion Naira? Govt has given conflicting addresses on the source of funding for the project.

Why spending the #16 Trillion Naira on a new project when there are already existing roads like the east west road that is calling for serious attention which still serves the same purpose.

Why is the project starting only in Lagos? Shouldnt it be starting at different phases like Cross River and Delta state to expedite the execution?

A lot of things are not making sense about the project.

Because it's not about the size of the gbola for some women

Good gbola is not just a function of size, its about how it is being used.

michylabo:
I like reading Peter Obi’s comments, but this one on the coastal road is off key.

While I sympathise with those affected....
The properties that were demolished, were they built on an approved plan and boundary?
Did they chart the land before investing? You can't build on a RoW and start complaining about the execution of the Law. Mr President might not be the number one choice of some, but this project is laudable and comes with lots of merit.

Please before making statements on a public forum try and get your facts right.

There was an initial design for that road, landmark and other people followed and observed that design. All of a sudden, they brought out this new design when people have already followed their initial design. I saw the 3d of both designs. Interestingly, the initial design is better as there will be no house to demolish thus saving government huge sums of money.

Besides there is no tangible reason given for the current design with the associated cost on state coffers.

You responded to someone you tagged a big fool. Are you not the capon of big fools like your father?

Prov. 5: 6 " Tell a fool he is a fool lest he continues in his foolish ways".

If anyone from the Niger-Delta comes across the thread, please remember that some of you voted for Peter Obi. Peter Obi has demonstrated he is against the progress of the Niger Delta communities. The bulk of the funds for running our economy comes from the Niger Delta. But he says a big project to criss-cross the Niger Delta is a misplaced priority.

Note that the US spent their way out of recession through the New Deal which focused on massive infrastructural development across board, including roads. There is no nation interested in progress that is currently not engaged in one form of infrastructural development or the other. But the one which is 60 years old overdue in Nigeria, Peter Obi is fighting it, simply because he lost election.

If he didn't build anything meaningful in Anambra, I think it is disingenuous to fight against something being built through the Niger Delta. Thanks to Tinubu's ingenuity, Lagos is undergoing massive infrastructural development and embarking on an audacious railway project which the likes of Rufai Oseni would condemn.

Peter Obi doesn't want the progress for the Niger Delta. He just wants to get the votes and use anti-developmental and archaic ideas to ruin this country completely.

Only vote for those who want progress to be in your land. With this tweet, Peter Obi has shown he is not interested in that.

As for the Landmark CEO who has been all over the place making noise, can he show us documents where the shorelines and beaches in his location were ceded to him? If he violated the right of way, it is evil for him to complain. The best thing to do was to meet and find ways to relocate his business or shift to an area where the coastal highway won't pass. When I travelled through Accra-Cape Coast highway, part of which was adjacent to the ocean, it was a beautiful sight with the blue waters! Guess what? Beaches still functioned!!

Just to add, a road network is also a delight for businesses. Food can easily be transported from rural areas to urban centers and those in rural communities would make good money.

But Peter Obi does not want this.

You are a big fool. The East West Road he called for its rehabilitation is in your fathers parlour not in Niger Delta. Why wasting money to build a new road which will not be completed when there are several roads to be rehabilitated across the nation. Common sense is indeed not common.

The Niger delta people already knows their true enemy. The person that allowed soldiers kill them, arrested and humiliated their monarch, chased them out of their houses and burnt their houses.

As for landmark, there was an original design of that road which they followed before building structures, following the initial design saves a whole lot of cost as people already followed it, why did govt all of a sudden changed the design thus embarking on several avoidable demolitions.

He's the worst minister in this our regime. Honestly I'm not happy with some of asiwaju's appointees

Asiwaju is the Petroleum Minister. Heineken is only a minister of state. So be open and say you are not happy with the Petroleum minister who is Asiwaju.

I think this a very lame and myopic excuse from the JAMB registrar.

That statistics have helped us to u derstand places lagging behid in education and efforts being put to bring them up.

Whats with all these pretty young female US teachers and small boys. Is it that they cant get good gbola from matured men around them?

Why the constant hunt for small boys when matured men with good gbola abound. Can somebody help me explain?

Really. Agbadorians always claims Tinubu is very good at scouting talents. I guess this confused emptty minister is one of them.

His utterances back to back has proven he is an empty skull.
