Great well designed and it looks good but some of our guys are just heartless they'll just block the drains with sand and palm sized alcohol sachets. Nigerians are not ready.

Kushites:
If the roads are too narrow, we can still cover the drains and clear the sand.

Do you know that in Japan, only major roads have sidewalks?

Their inner roads have none, because they are too narrow. They were built centuries ago, before the invention of cars.

But see how they look:

Road sealed properly, so not a drop of sand on it, and drains covered.

This is Abuja.

Why can't these state governors build their streets like this?

This is how a normal street looks in a sane environment.

Covered drains. Sidewalks.

It's not rocket science!
If you see streets in Accra, Nairobi or Kigali not to mention Johannesburg; your jaw go drop. Naija jagajaga no be small.

I support you for this one

Every morning I wake I realize how depressing it is to be a Nigerian.

It's miracle how suicide rate in Nigeria isn't above the roof

Like the most basic things seems like rocket science for this Cows that call themselves leaders.


I swear on God there's no single sector or thing in Nigeria working at average capacity.

Like 50/100 apart from corruption


I sincerely with all my heart hate this country
Channel your hate into something productive. Work hard, save, carry your bags and enter Benin republic or Togo, or if you can't manage the francophones, you can try Ghana. All your worries are solved. Good luck.

Or maybe come to realize that the larger proportion of your quality of life lies in your own locus of control.

The places that should be called Abuja are well built like these estate roads shown here. I know when Abuja is mentioned what jumps into your mind is Nyanya, Kubwa and Lugbe. Those are suburbs. Wuse, Maitama, Asokoro, Katampe, Guzape, Garki and most parts of Jabi, Utako, Lifecamp and Kado are well built to those standards.
Kubwa is amongst the first sets of town in Abj, kubwa is not a suburb. Apo, Gudu etc are not subrubs in anyway. Maybe your intention is to distinguish CBD and other parts of Abj, thank you.

[quote author=BondRiv post=130080106]These are the sycophants and enemies of Nigeria who never speak the truth and hold governors accountable. They only know how to abuse the President

Please don't waste your time arguing with IPOB they believe that they are the wisest people on this planet, what they are after in their entire life is negative things about Nigeria

Metropolitan streets and residential city roads are NOT the FG responsibility.

That is for the state governments to fix.

The FG has shown the way, by how Abuja was constructed.
no kill ur self for nairalanders they bunch of illetrates, ignorant pple.
Most of them are as bad as our politicians. They love tribal bigotry post about ibos .or any yoruba post where go make their head swell.
Not all reason like that o. But when you read many of their comments u know why Nigeria can't have good governors or president. Later they start wailing about bad governance no school, no good road bla bla.our politicians are wicked. How they no go WIcked when in 2024 pple still dey reason like this.

Standards are low to non-existent.

All we need is a national STANDARD for how the roads should look. And a requirement that every state govt meets a certain percentage in terms of upgrades per annum.

If we do that, in the next 20 years, all our streets will look world class.

The 'abroad' that you people love so much, BE the abroad nau....?

This is how you eliminate sand from the roads.

Roads are not supposed to have sand on them.

You eliminate sand by SEALING the road. You build the road, then it hits the pavement/sidewalk which hits the wall of the house.

Result?

NO SAND FOREVER ON THE ROAD.

You don't need to sweep. Ever.

ZERO SAND.

Why can't these CRETINS we call governors build our roads like this, the RIGHT way?

I LAUGH when I hear these clowns in govt talking about ''attracting tourists''.

UTTER CLOWNS.

Tourists LOVE to walk around.

They will NEVER visit Nigeria for tourism until you build your roads the right way.

Who is going to leave their comfortable nation to come here and be jumping gutter with you people?

With dusty roads, sand and mud?

Dreamers!

Keep dreaming! 🤣🤣

https://i.imgflip.com/s6cdb.jpg
You're right but not totally.

You don't eliminate sand totally by sealing the gutters.

You eliminate sand by building cities or estates, building proper drainages, increasing the living standards and income of the people, and yes, sweeping the roads.

Building the cities will prevent people from carrying sand tippers on the road. Because everything has already been built.

Proper drainages will clear the sand that comes in from winds and rains, and also harmattan.

High standard of living will ensure that people can afford these built up places, and also that the builders can adhere to the rules and building codes you will make to govern buildings and transportation of building materials.

Here in Nigeria, land is mapped out, government eats the money meant to build up these places. Then they start selling out lands to people who now build it up. Sand tippers everywhere overfilled and dropping sand all over the roads.

No!

Say this is part of Abuja.

In Nigeria, development in every state is geographically selective.

So,
If you think you will see everywhere in Abuja as beautiful as what OP showed in the picture, you'll be disappointed in the long run.
Everywhere in Abuja city is beautiful but everywhere in fct is not.🤫

If some states must build this type of street road, a lot of demolition must occur and most of the state governors are not all that wicked to demolish peoples houses with out paying compensation.

Some states governors are doing well in times of street road construction.
