Even though it would benefit my state(Port Harcourt) if it was possible. People shouting coastal highway have never been to the water front areas,

If you have ever been to Lagos and you know third mainland bridge. That's the kind of bridge you would need that will cut across the stretch of Delta State, Bayelsa and Port Harcourt talkless of Akwa Ibom.

These areas are creeks and mangroves sea.

For me what I understand it's going on here is that Chagoury man wants to use coastal highway tactics to claim Lagos water front. That's why his company started sand filling wether anyone like it or not.

The first picture below is Delta State area alone. To fund the high bridge that will cross these areas America, Chinese and Europeans will have to come together to fund it for us.

What you guys are doing is wicked to the bone

Niger Delta is the goose that Lays Nigeria's Golden eggs and after 40years FG wants to do something Substantial for them by building them a Coastal Highway and you are now fighting against it

You no Shame?

Yet You saw Buhari building Railway for his People even to Niger using the Niger Delta's resources

Don't you know that at least Half of what was used to build Abuja was supposed to have gone to the Niger Delta as infrastructure for the sake of Fairness and non exploitation?

FG has Cheated Niger Delta so badly for decades to the extent that they don't even argue about it again they only give them fake promises to improve their behavior towards the Niger Delta and because of a Single Road you are here fighting

Paraman:
But why did you lie?

You have never been to Lagos state, instead of you to be more concern about what's happening in Abia state, you're crying over what you have no power to stop neither will your wailing make the project to stop

As an omo Eko, born and bred in surulere in the 70s, among the first set of pupils in elitist fountain private school surulere in the 70s, with about 9 landed properties owned by me, my family home and siblings, as well as a thorough fluency in Yoruba language, I have more stakes to Lagos than you hoodlum from ogobomosho who is claiming Lagos indigene. So shut your smelly mouth up

Paraman:


Why did you claim the road will pass through Epe? Why did you lie Chijioke?

NorthernAgender:
Igbos have been always denied their identity whenever they want to make a bad remark they usually hide under the south south people to carryout their evil habits. Like this op claiming port Harcourt. He forgot that average Niger delta will rather channel their energy on something that will more productive.

The useless being forget that the whole of lagos island even part of surulere and some part of ikoyi even the whole of Eko Atlantic and part of oworo were ocean and they sand filling it to be habitable for people.

The project that have been in place for over 30 years no administration's ever talk about it and each administration stolen trillion of naira even if not dollars self? If those money stolen by this individual can be channel to this project would the project will still be there?
Some of you are just criticizing without constructive even including your boss peter obi but you guys from that region really get empty brain spits on your head bro.

Ezeama400:
They know it's highly impossible..

Tinubu will build only Lagos side, then promise SS that he will complete it if they vote him in 2027, since his Northern Masters have started forsaken him..

The unrealistic project is all about siphoning of public fund and 2027 election plans

Agbado REST

DrAkpamudehe:

Only fools believe that road will be a reality. That road will end in Epe and that's it.

Exousiang01:
They celebrate structures like this outside the country but when our government embarks on structure that require high level technology they say it is impossible.
Small minded folks like OP never go far in Life.

They are coastal roads all over the world with even much worse terrains. It's possible in those countries but it's not possible in Nigeria.

OP is not a structural engineer, but he feels he knows better than the professionals with years of experience.

We won't stop moving forward as a nation because of small minded citizens like you sir.

Can you even imagine what you are saying?
The Gilbert is trying to use the road to take land... How does that even make sense. Do you folks think before talking at all?

bjdon:
I will say it again, as SS person who strongly supported PO in the last election, PO and the Igbos need to drop this matter. There are many other things to attack the govt over. Tinubu has laid a trap for PO and the Igbos, and they are walking right into it. Support for PO is dropping fast across the SS. Come 2027 you can already see the attack line APC will deploy in the SS. 'The Igbos don't want the SS to develop....'. In politics you don't give you enemy amunition.

Before Peter Obi ever criticised that road, I did first. My argument was that those trillions of naira (they said the FG will pay 50% of 15 trillion which is about 7.5 trillion) should be invested in agriculture and power. Prices of foodstuff are becoming alarming and a country of 200 million people doesn't distribute up to 5000 megawatts of power; almost the whole economy runs on generators.

However, APC members and their foot soldiers are now deploying tribal politics to the whole argument that this road isn't a priority. So, I want to appeal to my Igbo brothers to halt all arguments concerning this road because they are now inciting the South South people against us.

This is the only thing APC knows how to do best - divide and rule. It has worked so well in Lagos guber elections and they have brought it to national politics. Unfortunately, they keep taking Nigeria backwards because facts and figures don't lie.

vengertime:
If truly they are sincere and they really want to build a coastal road, they should start from calabar, port Harcourt, Bayelsa, those are the impossible part. You want to build road on mangrove forest and creeks.

You dey whine?

The whole of VI was once a swamp

Where the Dangote Refinery is located was once a swampy area

Construction work for the Lagos calabar road is ongoing at Eleko, where the road will pass through at Eleko is a swampy area, go there and check how it's been built up

Swampy area is not a big deal
Also check out that swamp under the bridge from ojota to maryland how those engineers sandfilled the whole swamp and made it very beautiful...

Go and makw research about the bonny bodo road

vengertime:
Third mainland bridge is like a dot compared to the bridge that you would need to cut across these areas. And I can assure you that federal government know it's impossible.


Chagoury is the one funding this whole madness. And we have Nigerian politicians that would destroy their citizens homes and livelihoods for a foreigner to benefit

helinues:
Wailers should rest.

Dem swear wailing for some of una?

Christistruth00:
They want the road to go through Onitsha and Owerri Instead

helinues:
Sebi na that one Dem for talk instead of wailing unnecessarily.

North wey the road no reach their side no fumes now?

That begs the question. How was the road projects passed through both houses ( Senate and HOA) which excluded SE from it yet their law makers kept mute

Sprinklepee:
I never wan answer this op now. Why you dey think the coastal highway nor fit work, na people like una dey go against the development of this country yet una go dey blame govt.

Christistruth00:
You know that their Law makers often sell their people for peanuts

The Coastal Rd would even pass through Port Harcourt which is 30 minutes from Aba
so it will still benefit them

Wickedfacts:
Most of those antagonising this project are Igbos. However, it is unfortunate that this project has shown the kind of hatred Igbos have for the South South.
