CommonSense1967:
The positive impact of the Lagos Calabar coastal road on the Nigerian economy will be huge and generational.
I have tried to explain to some why this is a brainer but they seem bent on looking at it from a political and sentimental perspective.
Even if Obi was President and he proposed this road, I would have supported it with everything I have.

Nigeria has a long coastline and most are not been used to their full potential. Imagine how many beaches will open up from Lagos to Calabar, imagine world-class hotels, imagine the potential for resorts in many areas.


Look at it from the potential benefits instead of the potential delays and costs.

Projects of this magnitude will experience delays, cost overruns, and many other problems. But we must still start it and plan for potential hiccups as we go along. No matter how ell you plan there will be issues but that is not enough reason to back away form it.

IF YOU HAD A WORKING BRAIN IN YOUR HEAD, YOU WOULD KNOW THAT IT IS PRECISELY INFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT THAT PROVIDED MASSIVE EMPLOYMENT TO THE CHINESE, WHILE IMPROVING THEIR EASE OF DOING BUSINESS, AND OPENING UP BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES TO MILLIONS OF PEASANTS WHICH ADDED TO GDP GROWTH AND ANNUAL INCOME, WITH WHICH THEY WERE ABLE TO COMBAT THEIR ECONOMIC PROBLEMS.

THEY DID NOT COMBAT THEIR ECONOMIC PROBLEMS BEFORE BUILDING INFRASTUCTURE.

IT WAS THE INFRASTRUCTURAL REVOLUTION THEY EMBARKED ON, AT GREAT COST TO THE PEOPLE (INDEED UNDER COMMUNIST MILITARY DICTATORSHIP) THAT LED TO THEIR ECONOMIC EXPANSION.

PEOPLE LIKE YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU NEED TO BUILD WEALTH AS A NATION. TO GROW YOUR NATIONAL INCOME AND ANNUAL BUDGET.

YOU CANNOT SIT DOWN ON A 30 BILLION DOLLAR BUDGET WHEN COUNTRIES LIKE THE USA HAVE A 7 TRILLION DOLLAR ANNUAL BUDGET, UK, 2 TRILLION, FRANCE, 2 TRILLION, SOUTH AFRICA 120 BILLION, ETC.

SO YOU MUST INCREASE YOUR NATIONAL INCOME.

THE OIL INCOME IS A PITTANCE FOR YOUR HUGE POPULATION.

HOW DO YOU INCREASE THAT INCOME?

BY CREATING A LARGE NUMBER OF BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, AS BUSINESSES PAY TAX, WHILE GENERATING EMPLOYMENT.

THE COASTAL ROAD WILL ATTRACT MULTIPLE INVESTORS FROM HOME AND ABROAD.

THAT IS HOW DEVELOPMENT WORKS!

Everlastingson:



No one is reading the trash and lies you posted up there. The only persons who support this Coastal Highway of Fraud are APC criminals like you. Several of your federal roads are unpassable, deathtraps, uncompleted. In the meantime your economy is a total mess, you have no money, you keep borrowing to fund your budgets, your local currency is a disaster, and you hurriedly initiate a project of over #20T without doing EIA, no competitive bidding; you change the funding from PPP to govt funded( and you're borrowing money everyday), NASS approved #500M but you released over #1T at once, etc. Stop deceiving yourself.

What happens to investing in power, Loans to local private manufacturers, oil refineries , Education , Health care and security?

Most of you are more or less Dumb.

No brain just herd mentality.

CommonSense1967:

Dumbest retard. Ask pandora pathological liar Obi your warlord slave master why he invested I Hero beer instead of fixing real problems in Anambra. You are nothing but a member of the headless mob with zero IQ. 🤡

CommonSense1967:

Your opinion is as worthless as fart. Get lost.

CommonSense1967:

That's not true. Show proof of your rumor. It's absolutely a lie.

MasterTeeUSA:
You cannot tackle all those without investing in infrastructures that raise the values of land and bring in investments that will give jobs to Nigerians. Disney World alone is the highest employer of labor in Florida. While I understand the sentiment around Landmark, it is not Disney, and we can produce many Landmarks with this Coastal Road.

My guess...Tinubu Govt hired consultants who told them what needed to be done ASAP to transform the country, and this must have been one of them. The pace they are going with this road is unprecedented. I know they also plan to move stuff from the PH refinery along this road, and with the rail, they can transport Petroleum products.

It is also a great alternative, so they can divert traffic to the new road to repair the old ones. One of our problems in Nigeria is trying to repair roads still in use. We need alternate routes if we plan to be like the West.
