He also said the construction of flyovers would commence first week of July and that the Federal Executive Council had given approval for the construction of the fifty six kilometres Sokoto-Badagry road.

This is the flag off for the construction of section 2. It's starting point is at the Lekki deepsea port and it will end and end at the Lagos/Ogun border. Section one started from Victoria and will end at the the Lekki deepsea port

10 billion for compensation? Is Tinibu this careless? There are already route mapped out for this road why not continue with it. More than 100 billion will be used only for compensation. Just one section of the road that is not up to 10km, you have already spent 10 billion in a road that is 700km. Tinibu please go back to the original plan mapped out for this road.
This 10 billion is enough to build six companies in the six geopolitical zones.

It is not government's responsibility to build companies (doing what? I don't really know for you) but to create an enabling environment for private companies to thrive and create employment.

That was how you hateful creatures said Dangote refinery would never work.
That was you all kept saying there was no work going on the second Niger Bridge even when it wss completed you people still went on.

Now the second phase has started, you people said it wont get beyond that first stage.

You lots are the most evil set of people living on Earth. Always praying wishing every evil for your own country. You kept wishing the country bad, I hope you people have a separate market where you buy things.
The foolishness is how you pray for the government to fail and still lament when your prayers are answered. You people are all just sick in the head.
Nigeria is unfortunate to have people like you as citizens

Nigeria is already bad with no hope and i am sure you are aware that it is not the wishes of the people that made it so but the wickedness,stupidity, greed and foolishness of our leaders?...

Is this how the country is supposed to be?.you come back from work and you meet darkness all over the place, depending on your phone to touch light to cook , turn on the tap and there is no water to use because there is no light to power the borehole...is this how a country is supposed to be?...

No one is against the project.

Nigerians are only against the fraudulent way Tinubu awarded the contract. The shadyness and dubiousness surrounding the entire project award process. There was no transparency or accountability in the award of the contract. There was no competitive bidding at all. 

First, Nigerians were told that the project would be funded by the contractor only for the Tinubu government to release N1.06 trillion from our common wealth to the contractor. To cover up what they have done, they backtracked and said that the government would be providing 15%–30% counterpart financing.

Could you believe that the Environmental Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) report on the project came after the contractors had mobilized to the site and begun work? A project of this magnitude.

Stop lying, ObiLiars. You guys are against the project calling it a "misplaced priority". The agenda started from Bitter Obi and then his bitter followers began echoing it.
