President Tinubu is executing a major project to deploy 90,000 kilometres of fibre optic cable across Nigeria. 

This project, often referred to as Project BRIDGE (Building Resilient Digital Infrastructure for Growth), is a $2 billion initiative supported by the World Bank and other development partners.

To expand Nigeria's total fiber backbone to 125,000 km, connecting all 774 local government areas (LGAs) and many wards.

As of January 2026, the government reported it had secured funding, completed 60 percent of the planning/work, and set up a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) for implementation.

Prior to this 90,000km expansion, Nigeria had approximately 35,000 km to 40,000 km of fibre-optic cable laid nationwide. The new project will more than triple this existing infrastructure.

The project aims to significantly improve internet speeds, reduce data costs by roughly 60%, and provide reliable connectivity to underserved areas. 
Does this mean that we can have full electronic voting in Nigeria very soon?

There has never been in the history of Nigeria that one individual govt has embarked or executed large infrastructural projects like the present govt of President Tinubu even in just 3 years.
President Bola Tinubu's administration is actively pursuing infrastructure development across Nigeria's six geopolitical zones, focusing on legacy projects, particularly in road, rail, and agriculture, with significant projects, such as the 750 kilometre Lagos Calabar Coastal Highway, spanning multiple regions.
This very important reason is why Tinubu might easily be re-elected in 2027.

The government emphasizes that these projects, designed to create a loop connecting different regions, are intended for equitable distribution.


Experts say Infrastructural development acts as a catalyst for national growth by improving productivity, enhancing connectivity, and lowering transaction costs.

A nation lacking foundational infrastructures such as several paved roads, consistent power grids, and sanitation systems,faces severe, tangible setbacks that cripple economic growth and diminish quality of life.

Lack of paved roads and functional rail networks makes moving goods slow, expensive, and dangerous.

This inefficiency dramatically increases the price of consumer goods and hinders agricultural or industrial output, as producers cannot easily reach markets.

Rural areas without all-weather roads become isolated, preventing access to essential services like schools and hospitals.
This leads to food waste, as farmers cannot transport produce, and encourages mass rural-urban migration, which puts extreme pressure on city services.

Investors avoid countries with poor roads, electricity, and telecommunications because the high risk and operational costs make projects unviable.

This inability to attract capital ensures continued reliance on subsistence activities rather than industrialization.


Infrastructure development influences employment, growth, the economy, agriculture, and energy.

Large-scale projects (highways, dams, railways) immediately create jobs for engineers, skilled laborers, and project managers.

There is indirect employment in supply chains,increased demand for construction materials (cement, steel, machinery) creates jobs in manufacturing and logistics sectors.

Reliable energy and internet infrastructure facilitate the growth of IT, telecommunications, and finance sectors.

Better rural road networks foster small businesses like food processing, repair shops, and transportation services.


Better connectivity allows workers to travel faster and cheaper to higher-productivity job sites, increasing overall efficiency.

Reliable energy and better transportation cut operating expenses, improving profit margins and enabling business expansion.

Developed, stable infrastructure makes a nation more attractive for foreign companies seeking reliable locations to invest.

Upgraded roads, rail, and ports reduce transit time, making exports cheaper and faster to distribute.

Boost to retail and consumption and improved logistical infrastructure which creates better distribution networks, lowering consumer prices and boosting retail activity in the long run.

High-density, high-quality infrastructure attracts people to urban centers, fostering innovation clusters and higher economic density.Agricultural Transformation

Improved rural roads and transportation ensure faster transport of perishable goods to markets, reducing waste.Increased Access to Inputs:

Enhanced infrastructure allows farmers to easily access fertilizers, high-yield seeds, and specialized machinery.

Better roads connect rural farmers to urban, regional, and international markets, increasing sales.

Setbacks arising from the lack of infrastructure in Nigeria include....

Poor infrastructure,specifically in power, road, and water sectors,makes it difficult to maintain normal business operations and life in Nigeria.

Insufficient power generation and distribution force industries and households to rely on expensive generators, driving up the cost of production and lowering competitiveness.

A lack of good roads and a fully functional railway network prevents goods from reaching markets efficiently, creating supply chain bottlenecks.

Inability to Attract Foreign Direct Investment (FDI): Investors often avoid countries with substantial infrastructure gaps, resulting in reduced capital inflow and capital flight.

Inefficient transportation networks and ports stifle trade and reduce the contribution of logistics to the nation's GDP.

Poor Quality of Healthcare and Education: Decaying, non-existent, or dilapidated educational and health facilities, especially in rural areas, directly hinder human capital development.Obstacles to Industrialization and Technology.

Limited electricity, ICT, and transport infrastructure inhibit the growth of the manufacturing and technology.

Poor water supply, sanitation, and transport networks, particularly in rural areas, limit economic empowerment and increase the poverty rate.

Inadequate infrastructure maintenance leads to a culture of neglected projects....white elephants projects.... that waste public funds and do not provide service to citizens.

Ritchiee:
Have you read the writeup.
Read the writeup and make an informed narration.

Society Watch has gathered that the renowned businessman is set to inject over $10 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI) from China into the Nigerian economy, in a bold move aimed at supporting President Bola Tinubu’s industrialisation agenda and strengthening the country’s GDP.


Is he the owner of the money?

Ritchiee:
Billionaire businessman, Prince Dipo Eludoyin, has become a true icon in the entrepreneurial landscape. He is unarguably one of the dynamic business magnates with a lot of global acclaim, while promoting worthy causes that affect Africa and entrepreneurship.

With decades of interrelations with Chinese business tycoons and multinational corporations, Society Watch has gathered that the renowned businessman is set to inject over $10 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI) from China into the Nigerian economy, in a bold move aimed at supporting President Bola Tinubu’s industrialisation agenda and strengthening the country’s GDP.

Eludoyin, who is also the Chairman of Paragon Group and owner of the landmark Ikeja Mall, is rallying Chinese multinationals and tycoons across key sectors—including pharmaceuticals, automobile, manufacturing, agriculture, power, technology, and oil and gas—for massive capital inflows that are expected to transform Nigeria’s economic landscape.

According to analysts, the scale and credibility of his personal and corporate relationships in China make this $10 billion investment drive highly feasible.

The investment initiative is expected to support several public-private partnerships, particularly in infrastructure and manufacturing. A Chinese consortium, reportedly assembled by Eludoyin, is exploring opportunities for setting up local production hubs for electric vehicles, pharmaceutical manufacturing plants, and smart agriculture clusters across Nigeria.

The initiative, which aligns closely with President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope agenda, is expected to begin yielding visible results within the next 12 months. A technical team is already working with select Chinese corporations on compliance, regulatory integration and local content development.

Described by close associates as a silent force in global business and diplomacy, he is said to operate on a first-name basis with top Chinese industrialists, and even the President of China and other African Presidents.

A confidant and long-time friend of President Tinubu, he has consistently turned down traditional titles and political appointments, preferring instead to focus on private sector-driven national development.

In 2015, after the death of Oba Okunade Sijuwade Olubuse II, Eludoyin was widely touted as a potential successor to the highly revered Ooni of Ife throne. However, he declined involvement in the succession race and maintained his focus on business. He holds the national honour of Member of the Federal Republic (MFR).

Is the 10 billion dollars in Nigeria.I hope it is not audio money.

Anybody can write anything on his blog.
I can say that Ikwerre is the largest ethnic group in the Africa.
If you have the balls,come and beat me nah.

We are winning.

I rate Mr Edun higher for navigating difficult period like this as against when Mrs Okonjo Iweala was borrowing money to pay workers before Buhari even came up as President.

So na when dem finish everybody we go get there,abi?

kerry57:
Truth is that these guys can't pull this shit alone, they certainly have collaborators in CAC, EFCC and top government agencies.

I listened to some people who say that these cbex guys have EFCC certs and other government documents in there offices.

Nigerians will only make noise about this for a few days and it will slide and the rogues will continue to rake in trillions. The total money I learnt is 1.3 trillions and still counting.

Any ponzi scheme is underway already and Nigerians will still get into because we are a big market population wise and gullible too
Peace

You are right.
EFCC and CAC are surely accomplices in this scam going by the interview I witnessed on Arise today.CBEX has their certification.
Only SEC is not in the know.
The EFCC and CAC heads should be apprehended to get to the root of this.

Sorry,can you give it out at 750k?

Akpi already saying that he wants a rematch and at the same time saying that he had never entered a ring to fight before because he schooled in New York.
Watching that match,Portable might beat him again if there is a rematch except he uses his native doctor's father juju which I think will be in vain.
If juju works in boxing,a dibia or several dibias would have been world champions worth billion of dollars.

brain54:
If he is capable...

Yes. It's not about fancy degrees.

But practical capacity to perform!

Do you have an example of somebody like that?

The sensible ones amongst them will support Tinubu.

brain54:
So an illiterate has no brain...?

Thanks for the enlightenment!

Will you allow an illiterate to run your business?

I don't believe this.

Raskimonojendor:

Has anybody ever said that it belongs to any other than LASG?

If you're browsing in zaira
It will show Kano

But outside country is not like that

By Adetutu Sobowale


Lagos and Ogun States are the top states with mobile Internet subscriptions in Nigeria in 2023.

Kano, Bayelsa and Zamfara ranked third, fourth and fifth respectively.

Expected.

Raskimonojendor:
As expected.

You can get it too and look it through.
I am even being modest.
It will be up to 95% .

BabaRamota1980:
Lagos State Govt is listening to the indigenes. Very good!

Not only listening.I think the Yorubas have the cash and they are very meticulous with how they do their businesses.They don't make noise.

Ofemannnu:
lol
I posted it when I saw that lands in Lagos are still more than 92% owned by Yorubas.
I thought they have sold off everything or at least 3/4 of the lands.

Haba!
Yorubas still own most of Lagos lands but some have been sold or leased out for some years.
If you go to Lands at Secretariat in Alausa,you will attest to what I am saying.
Some people are just using their lands to make maximum liquidity.

Ofemannnu:
These are applicants for C of O in Lagos State posted on page 23 of the Nation Newspaper of yesterday,9th of January,2024.
Check if your name is on the lists.

What is the essence of this because when I got hold of the newspaper,I saw that the applicants are around 93% Yoruba people.

A Nigerian lady, Grace Ogwo has taken to Facebook to celebrate bagging a PhD in mathematics at the age of 27 from a South African university, IGBERETV reports.

She bagged a First Class Honours and was also the best-graduating student in her department during her first degree in Mathematics. She was awarded a PhD after 20 publications. Grace was able to achieve all these despite having a D7 in her WAEC certificate and a C6 in her NECO certificate in the same subject.

She wrote;

Surely possible but facebook is not enough proof that she bagged phd at 27.
Some people cruise by using facebook for falsehood.

Blame the user.

However, the man whose beautiful lungs are in this image is also dead.

Something must kill a man.

Why would you like to blame the victim.
What about the makers or even the govt that allowed them?

Hotwest:
Like take few sticks when you want to calm nerves down.

Not smoking like Chinese who can bug rolls and on it all day long though they still live long

One stick contains 70 substances that cause cancer.That's huge

donbachi:
forget that Noddle saga.its a strategy used by new brand fighting to gain ground to bring down already existing big brands.

lol
Some people were pointing to Dangote.
I dont believe that insinuation.
Meanwhile,cigars are even more dangerous.

Hotwest:
Smoke responsibly

Something must kill a man

How can one smoke responsibly when that cigar contains 70 poisons according to the makers?
