Funding, 25 years?... We cant fund the dualisation and resurfacing of an already existing road even after 25 years of trying, yet we want to go ahead and build a new 700km road from scratch on swampy terrain?

JuanDeDios:
Will this thing pass through Benin City?

Tealcrestmedia:
This project is not clear. The east west road during the Jonathan's era is still valid in same corridor, so what will they do? Construct another or what? Iyam not getting it. Why not use this money to rehabilitate critical roads like PH Aba road, instead of a new 700km highway. Smh

TheBillyonaire:
Why is it called 'Coastal Road' when it is not running near the coast except at Lagos?

obailala:
Rehabilitation of east-west road hasnt been completed after 25 years yet...

Facidio:
Be fooling yourself with believing in Nigeria government. East west Road is not as long as this but its been 17years under construction and till date not completed.

Tellmeastory:
If you buy land in Warri now, you will cash out big time in the next few years.

Same as Yenagoa, Sapele, Aba, and all those cities that will have this expressway passing through them.

Hotel business will boom in those places as well.

Tobihabeeb:
Asking for state police is systematically Asking for regional government, just incase u don't know.

At this pace surely nigeria will divide.

Do you know that CBN has printed new Naira notes this year?

Yet finance minister blames the previous administration for printing too much Naira.

The pictures I attached are for the doubting Thomas.

The 1000 naira note I attached was withdrawn by me over the ATM.

If truly there is excess naira in circulation, why is the new administration printing more in less than a year in office?

Imagine what an adult is saying?

Bag of rice went from 38,000 to 80,000 naira under the same man.

The Managing Director of the Nigerian Ports Authority, Mohammed Bello-Koko, has disclosed that Onne Port has witnessed increased vessel traffic.

Bello-Koko said this recently in Lagos during the inauguration of the newly acquired security boats by NPA.

He also said that the agency would continue to push towards growing the fortune of eastern ports.

Onne Port Complex situated on the Bonny River Estuary along Ogu Creek, is the first port in Nigeria to operate the Landlord Port Model devised to encourage private sector participation in the maritime industry.


Bello-Koko said, “Onne Port has recently witnessed increased vessel traffic; we cannot rest on our laurels. We will continue to push the advocacy and galvanise stakeholder opinion towards growing the fortunes of the Eastern Ports.”

Bello-Koko noted that the newly acquired security boats would increase vessel traffic to the eastern ports.


“I am especially delighted to say that these security patrol boats position us to achieve our set goal of driving increased vessel traffic to the eastern ports of Onne, Rivers, Warri, and Calabar Port Complexes, where four of the vessels commissioned have been allocated,” Bello-Koko said.

The truth is Lagos mainland cannot be resuscitated or beautified again.The whole area is a complete mess.

I have been seeing many beautification efforts,efforts to clean up,beautify,restore bad areas but it never works ,soon as an area is restored a bit it breaks down almost immediately, I don't think there's any effort that can reshape and reorganise the mainland. It's a lost cause.

Infact a new ECONOMIC planned city as to be built for Nigeria like Abuja.

LAGOS is gone

He stated the distinctive features and multiple functionalities of those marine crafts and the game-changing effect they bring to bear.

“Our security preparedness and capacity to respond to emergent threats are enormous. I have chosen to refrain from mentioning those superlatives here because of the security implications of doing so.

“Our profound appreciation also goes to our highly valued security partners; the Nigerian Navy, Nigeria Police Force, Nigerian Army, the DSS and the Lagos State Government, whose collaborations continue to enhance our ability to detect, deter and respond to security threats and incidents before they fester,” the NPA boss declared.

He remarked that the event was a testament to the agency’s commitment to continuous improvement in the journey towards transforming, “our strategic intent of becoming the maritime logistics hub for sustainable ports services in Africa from potential to actualities”.

Dollar now trade at 200.02 as we speak bankwide. I wonder what BDC guys would be selling theirs in 3 days time.

Which Way Nigeria?

In recent times there has been problems of insecurity in Northern Nigeria and this has affected food production because farmers are afraid to go to the farm. Yet, remember that Governor Ambode increased the size of the rice mill and made it one of the biggest in Africa. So there isn't enough paddy for the mill. This is Governor Sanwo-Olu's solution.

President Bola Tinubu has approved three new directives in the oil and gas sector to introduce fiscal incentives for related projects, reduce contracting costs and timelines, and promote cost efficiency in local content requirements.

This followed “extensive engagements, analyses, and benchmarking with other jurisdictions” a statement signed by the President’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, read Wednesday.

The statement is titled ‘President Tinubu signs executive orders on oil and gas reforms.’

According to Ngelale, Tinubu approved the “Introduction of fiscal incentives for non-associated gas, midstream and deepwater developments.

“Streamlining of contracting process to compress the contracting cycle to six months.


“The application of the local content requirements without hindering investments or the cost competitiveness.”

Wednesday’s directive is in keeping with his efforts to remove obstacles to investments in Nigeria, harness the nation’s resources and diversify the economy for the benefit of Nigerians, said the Presidency.

It is also expected to improve the investment climate and position Nigeria as the preferred investment destination for the oil & gas sector in Africa, the statement further explained.

Ngelale noted that these incentives were developed in collaboration with the Federal Ministries of Justice, Finance, Petroleum, Budget and Economic Planning, Federal Inland Revenue Service, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, and the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board.

The details of these Policy Directives will be gazetted and communicated by the Federal Ministry of Information and National Orientation even as the Special Adviser to the President on Energy, Mrs Olu Verhijen, has been directed to “continue coordinating the aforementioned stakeholders to ensure the implementation of these directives within a stipulated timeframe.”

INTEGRITYA1:
Both States and Federal Government should get more serious about the food productions in Nigeria.

Lagos State Government signed similar memorandum with Kebbi State during Buhari regime for rice production, by now we should be seeing positive effects of such projects in relation to rice availability in our Country.

We pray things work out fine but we need to be serious with what we are doing.

Eko o ni ba je.

God Bless Nigeria.

DeLaRue:
Large scale farming is easier in the North.

It is difficult to find large stretches of flat land in the SW. Our lands are punctuated by ancient gullies and valleys left behind by long-diasppeared streams and rivers. Then you have forests with large trees.

Big farm machinery don't work well in this sort of environment.

In the North you have flat lands that go on for several kilometres without obstruction.
