Summary of this post - all governments, president, governors and LG chairmen have been wasteful. Both past and present. The challenges of today were not created now. It has been accumulation and mismanagement at all levels for so many years. All leaders are guilty. It has caught up with us.
In summary, every successive government inherits both liabilities and assets. The problem is that successive government do more to increase liabilities and decrease assets. They end up doing very little to add to the assets they inherit

In a few years to come, Quote me that the Lagos Calabar coastal road will join this list. That's if it hasn't already.

cheesy

They all look like a good initiative. In fact, each of them has its own unique economic importance and would have been a very good project

Op, abeg, find way send this article go meet Tinubu, not sure there's proper handing over, a smooth one, enough to make the incoming ministry-in-charge aware of what and what should be taken a look at

FG should look for a way to get funds to complete them all
They rather use the funds to start new projects that will not be completed. The amounts mentioned in those projects have already been shared so, FG no get time for them.

None was done under APC's watch and some people will still open their gutter mouth to call APC corrupt
The same people in PDP then are in APC now.

Brotherly, you’re the one that needs to travel out of your cave and see that life is more advance than every rubbish you see in Nigeria. A project that was started in 2009 and up till now Eko Atlantic has not more than 10 structures and you’re saying shit.
I live here in Lagos close to the city. Cave man work is still going on, even American embassy just started the construction of their new consulate. Take your hate and your pessimist thrash to the cave that you belong.

Leave Tinubu out of this. He just became president last year. And why are you mischievously leaving GEJ out of this?

GloriousGbola:
why are you putting the picture of Bola Tinubu over a list of projects that preceded his administration, preceded APC, and are not even completely federal?

i have gone through your topic history so i understand the game you are playing here?

you should also put alex ottis picture on a thread the failed projects of Abia
As Current President, he is now responsible. he represent the federal government hence no other picture can be there
Re: $16 Billion Wasted: Top 10 Abandoned Projects In Nigeria by skilfulsagei(m): 3:21pm On Jun 24, 2024
The project was handled by the Nigeria Police.

i have to wonder if you actually understand how government works - seeing as you are trying your best to blame the federal government for failed projects in states

i know the game you are playing, so i have to wonder why you failed to include a loss making brewery

the failed FG projects you listed ironically are the legacies of GEJ - whose regime was a story of profligracy

and of course you tried drop ajaokuta - a project that goes back to the 80s on this admin

one would have expected that you would pick an actual filed project from an APC administration - like the nigerian airline scam - but you dont seem to understand much beyond copying and pasting .

By the time you combine this with the state govt waste, it should easily reach $100B.

The aim was not to deliver the project but for embezzlement.

The problem with this thread is that OP is supposed to indicate the dollar value of the project because Naira has devalued astronomically over the years.
Secondly show who started, how much was spent, level of completion and date it was abandoned.

Nigeria is one of the wealthiest countries in the world. You can whine the country through corruption/embezzlement, but Naija no go panic.

the airline project was terminated completely.

the bulk of failed projects are FG owned

the projects under the FG alone cost no less than $15 billion. all the state projects combined are not up to a billion USD.
regardless the present leadership are to be blaimed and responsible now. it is their duty to fix it up.
