Why Is Coastal Road More Important Than Electricity,of What Value is the Road? by Goodday90(m): 10:23am On Apr 21
Nobody both online and offline have been able to enumerate the importance of the coastal roads and why it is more important than Electricity
Atleast Electricity will bring about a lot of development,why can’t the Government just repair the Existing roads
Anytime these question is asked,some people make
It tribal and try to make us forget about it

Personally I think this is just a white elephant project that they will use to loot trillions

You need to be ipob to reason this way.

Is 2nd Niger Bridge more important than electricity, so why do the bridge before fixing electricity.

How much was the second Niger bridge?

About 35 billion naira is that the same with about 28 trillion they are about to spend for the coastal road?

Besides the importance of the second Niger bridge was the fact the first one was quite narrow and already in some sort of bad shape which people had been complaining about, so you want to wait till people die before a second on is needed?

Is that the same thing with the coastal road?

You guys just come and defend nonsense because of politics, tribe and religion....

A road that will start in and will be abandoned just after finishing the south west region , he is just developing the south west under the guise of a coastal road with the oil money that belongs to Nigeria

The answer is simple.

It's payday for Tinubu.
It's a legal transfer of trillions of Naira to the Chagoury Brothers.

Fact #1: The contract was GIFTED to the Chagoury Brothers without competing tenders.

Fact #2: The Chagoury Brothers are long time business partners of Tinubu.

You can reach your own conclusions.

Transformers are not generators, the major problem with Nigeria power sector is Nigeria is not genratinf enough power as at now, 4000 mega watts for 200 million people, even if they buy 1 million transformers it will not increase the mega watts...

The problem with you guys and the leaders you support is you guys leave the real problem and start chasing shadows, minor on the major and major on the minor....

U dey mind them.. pure coastal land grab moves. They want to displace indigenous owners and Lagos VI/Lekki axis landlords … and claim their lands. The primary beneficiaries of this coastal land are Chagourys, Eko Atlantic, Lekki Port, Lekki Airport,PBAT cronies and politrickians.

Btw, Lagos Badagary/Cotonue road RECONSTRUCTiON project has been going on for over 15yrs .. now imagine building a new swampy coastal rd of 800km??

I have read it, it is even an old news, that was the Siemens deal Kyari signed during Buhari's time, it was just delivered in Tinubu's time, but I am telling you that it will not increase the mega watts generated....

That is like feeding 200 children with food of 10 people, instead of buying more food, you buy more plates to share the food that is not up to...

Is it going to increase the supply?

Now, you're now writing another ignorant comment as if the government is doing nothing to increase the MW we generate.

Does that justify the government spending about 28 trillion on coastal road over electricity?

Which one is more important to an average Nigerian now?

Good question.

But I think there is a deal already in progress regarding electricity and as we know electricity and building of roads falls into different ministry, so let everyone do their job

The problem with you guys is you people don't learn and you are not detailed, and comprehension seems to very hard for some of you, I don't know if its deliberate or indeliberate....

My point is whatever they have done, has the power supply improved?

It means they are doing the wrong things. Reason for the question" what have they done?"


If you tell me that you have been working throughout the day to cook and in the end the food is no ready for anyone, then what have you really done or what have you been doing?

It means you may been working round the clock doing the wrong things throughout the day reason why the food is not ready....

Nigerians are tired of just activities, we want results, has the power supply improved after what they have done or not done?

COMRADES, if tinubu is wise enough, he could have channelled the funds meant for that white elephant's project to maintaining or repairing the existing roads throughout the country, and it will contribute immensely to the growth of the economy

Base on the two links I have shared with you on this thread, I do not expect you to write this kind of comment.

Tinubu has not spend up to 1 year in power, but you want him to do what Jonathan and Buhari couldn't do all over Nigeria in 6 and 8 years respectively.

I do have at least 15hrs power supply per day.

The power sector is still a work in progress, before December 2026, majority of Nigerians should be having at least 15hrs power supply daily.
