Tinubu is a dishonest leader that is hell bent on destroying Nigeria beyond redemption.
the sa.e way he destroyed Lagos that has now distinguish it self from the rest. He destroyed Lagos that he brought about building solid schools still standing tall today, free education, free Neco, even using student as a day governor to encourage student.
He destroyed Lagos that brought about one of the best security in Nigeria RRS with sophisticated weapons, imagine mobile police having Helicopter, speed boat, nice police cars and well trained personnel, He has destroyed Lagos state that brought about finding solution to the worst erosion that almost look over Lagos Island, he recovered it and also makes it a great asset that now house the biggest single train refinery, largest sea port in Nigeria. He is a very bad man that he did so well in the medical sector , free or cheap health care service, building local health care to be easily accessible to everyone .and not just Yoruba, He destroyed Lagos that now host one of the judiciary assets (Lagos state high court) even Obasajo envied him that he said "we also have Supreme Court ,no dey do shakara"
He destroyed Lagos that he established Many agency that still function till today from Lasma, Lawma,Lamata,, Lasra and many more.
He is such a wicked Man that he never owe Salary, even after he left office, He imposed Bad leaders as governor of each All of them has performed excellently even better than Peter Obi. From Fashola to Ambode and Sanwo. Tinubu destroyed Lagos that people that work with him as a governor are armed rubbers like Refined professor Osinbajo who was his commissioner, Fashola, Aregbeshola, Wale Edun, Cardoso, Egbdokun,Onizuka, he also Wallow with bad friends like Wole showing, Jim Ovia .
The same way the media destroyed the image of GADDAFI, until his exit before they knew he was their hero that they might never have again i.

You don’t. You are invited. The procedure for award/ bidding etc depends on the method of financing. For instance Tax credit road financing is different.

The project is costing $15b, govt equity is $1b. The remaining $14b is not govt money. There is nothing like Govt’s N4T.
That's a lie. You're lying to defend govt and it's a pity when it's not like you're even going to make a kobo from the deal.
The project is EPC+ not BOOT. It was changed because the contractor did not have money. For BOOT, there might be no need for bidding but for EPC+ there is need for bidding. Why do you think even Tinubu's govt have been trying to hide the fact that there was no bidding behind BPE's certificate of no objection. It seems you know more than them!!

Govt part of the funding is 15% which is 4trn out of 15trn out of which 1.06trn has been released.
It is obvious you're not well informed but just here to defend what you don't know. I know you're not even aware that 15trn does not cover the total cost of the project.

You are the ignoramus. If you have good English comprehension and know how to convert dollars to Naira, you will have seen where I said the project costs $15b and the govt is only providing $1b. Do I have to spell out the implications of that to you?

Mr ATIKU So the road belongs to TINUBU? It's not must to speak as opposition if you don't have anything to say.
Yarimo... everytime u open your mouth u allow people peep into your empty skull. So u couldn’t simply understand that his concern is that Tinubu is more concern about making money for his family and friends by building the road himself? His company his the one building it. He has taken OUR MONEY, awarded it to a company his family and friends own without any oversight.
Which parents raised people like u? No value.. no moral

Is the $15b for Lagos Calabar govt money? No!

Is they don’t build the Lagos Calabar road will the $15b go towards existing roads? No!

Are they repairing existing roads? Yes
But at a slow pace because we have no money!

If they don’t construct Lagos Calabar will it make repairs on existing roads faster? No!

Know the facts before you comment.
Existing roads are being repaired but govt has no money so it is slow.
The money for Lagos Calabar is not govt money and if you cancel the project the money will not go to existing g roads because it is not govt money.

The money is not govt money and you don’t do competitive bidding when a private company is bringing its own money to finance a project. You do competitive bidding when the money you are spending is govt money. Atiku and Obi know these things but they just want to deceive ignorant and giluloible Nigerians.

The audacity of Atiku to talk of corruption.

It is you who needs to read procurement act EPC contracts go to bidding and tenders board. Even Umahi never said what you're saying. What he said is that they for a certificate of no objection from BPE based on the antecedents of the contractor.

The project cost is not $15bn. That's the road component of the project. The cost of rail is still unknown. Govt is providing $4bn out of which $1bn has been released. I've changed to dollars so you don't keep getting confused.

I find it absurd that instead of educating yourself properly, you just jumped to govt defence. This is modus operandi of Zombies and you're just a bit better cause you've not gone the highway of tribalism or calling Obi names. But you need to educate yourself properly man.

The project is a like a case of wearing a rolex watch with an empty stomach..MISPLACED PRIORITY

Eat first and have access to basic amenities before talking of wearing expensive clothes.

It's obvious Tinubu wants to use the project to siphon a public fund..

Why would you embark on a project you know fully well you can't finish if you don't have ulterior motive ?
Why would such contract be awarded to his very close friend?

Trust me, 15 trillion Naira will vanish and the project would be no where to be found..

Save this thread.. We will resurrect in for vindication when the time comes..
all of us in this thread might die without them completing the project. That Road will take more than 50yrs before completion

Read the nonsense you just wrote again and tell me the problem of Nigeria is not Nigerians themselves. To paraphrase Ben Bruce, “feel free not to use the road” and wait for the govt to find the money to fix existing roads from its own coffers.

Nobody is against building the road. It's the shady nature of the deal that's being called into question. Folks like you will tell us OBJ spent $16bn on power with no result but here you are defending a govt that's about to spend money with no transparency as well. For you guys, it's about who is doing it not what's being done.
Lovers of Nigeria indeed. More like lovers of thieves

Feel free not to use the road and wait till a govt of $30b annual budget has the $15b to build a road of this nature or the money to fix existing roads.

If I dont have the money to build a house of my own and and am throwing away dead money in rent every year and someone comes and says if you give me a commitment deposit, I will build a house for you, you can stay in it and pay me rent I would have thrown away to a landlord and after 25yrs the house is mine. I will take the deal any day! If I have my own money to build my house I can dictate which contractor builds my house. If you like start arguing nonsense as if if you work for 40 years you will be able to build the house, as if you would not have been paying the same rent for a house that will never belong to you.

Like I said the problem of Nigeria are Nigerians. I have never seen where you give a begger a dirty N1000 note and he rejects it saying he wants a clean one? Consider yourself fortunate I responded to you after the nonsense you wrote in your last post. I won’t respond to you anymore. Feel free to go to Calabar from Lagos via sahagamu Benin road etc.

Your should not use the existing roads too then.

Your analogy makes zero sense simply because both the existing dilapidated roads and the new road belong to the FG so the question of paying rents for a house that will never belong to you does not even arise. It's so offpoint.

The cost of the road at $15bn and N4bn per kilometer is the highest ever in Africa. For a man who has never owned a house to think of paying such humongous sum for a shady deal is an anomaly in finance and that's to borrow from your offpoint analogy.

In all these, you shifted from trying to defend the transparency of the project to its utility.

Typical of apologists with no points.

Bye

When Atimu speaks Nigerians should listen, honestly I wish we had voted this man ! Despite all the allegations unfounded against him he sometimes exhibit tolerance and resilience. Above all he's a skilled conventional Business man with friends in high places though hated by some political colleagues cos he's successful in biz not from politics!

Unlike Tinubu! Though I think he can do some tricks but that greedy nature can never departs from him

So you see how easy it is for you to position APC in this, but once we say it is Tinubu who caused Buhari to happen to Nigeria and the ensuing repercussions everyone experienced, you guys will shift goalpost to the individual and not to APC.

I guess it is PDP that caused the dollar to be 1300, petrol 1000 and the numerous security challenges, excusians, very prudent in managing taking responsibilities for cluelessness and confusion.

You guys are cursed with spontaneous acute hypocrisy and chronic lucid ignorance.

TUEH!
You sound pained. Is it because your candidate was beaten silly in the last presidential election? Kpele! Tinubu is your president and he's the one ruling you and your family. God bless Nigeria
