The IIGB0S along that path of road will do everything within their power to frustrate the Lagos - Calabar highway.

4 billion naira per km.
Tinubu well done.
The kind of contract this fulish man is awarding just to enrich himself, will make one small company take over Nigeria before tinubu finish his tenure.
Where is the 50 million youths tinubu promised to recruit into Nigerian armyhuh
Even the agbadu and casava he promised his supporters, he can't provide.
dimgbajwe:
Umahi knows this road is to siphone money. Of what value is spending 2.4 trillion on less than 100km to nowhere road?

Shikini:
Thiefņubu and his gang of criminals are laughable.

Peter Obi advised them not to start what they cannot finish ... but because of the rumoured corruption behind the deal they insisted.

Dave Umahi is just a pawn in the hands of Thiefņubu and his Lebanese friend
.
Smartcitizen:
Sometimes I just feel like punching these useless politicians on their POT BELLIES.
BlueRayDick:
Nigerian political class are just wicked and insensitive. Imagine talking down on genuine business men and calling them "bad people" simply because they are legally demanding for compensation for their buildings u destroyed in the name of a white elephant project.

Everything to these people is just politics. That was how Chief Olumide Apagun committed suicide in Ogun state in 2012 after Amosun took over his resort and had it demolished. Smh 👎

Later u will go to mosque on Friday and Church on Sunday and u will hear the religious leaders saying we should pray for our leaders. What sort of prayer does one render for these wicked lots?
Racoon:
The disposition of the FG and Dave Umahi on this coastal highway issue is just a display of sheer pride, arrogance, dehumanisation and insensitivity to the welfare of citizens. A highway of fraud and corruption
zombieHUNTER:
Lagos Calabar coastal highway being constructed by Tinubus High-tech is not the solution to Nigerians numerous problems..

We have energy crisis
fuel is above 1k per liter
There's food crisis and inflation
there's insecurity aa never seen before affecting rural farmers and dwellers

All these need urgent attention..
Tinubu is failing seriously and I doubt if this country can make it to 2027
Sheuns:
Sometimes I don’t blame those that choose to use their money to buy property overseas.

It’s safer to invest in Rwanda as a Nigerian than invest in Nigeria as a Nigerian.

Please refrain from quoting me for nonsense tribal gaslighting.

My post was directed at Umahi who claimed the property owners are "bad people" for going to the courts to seek further compensation for their properties destroyed.

You don't destroy someone's property worth billions of naira and give them paltry 1.3m as compensation simply because u can.

The people have a right to go to court to seek property compensation from the government. They are not bad people for exercising their legal right.

It's only people who have never made money in their lives to acquire assets and political sycophants that will think they are bad people.

Umahi is 100% correct.. People who build on government lands or without approval are bad.
FG should compensate only those who deserve to be compensated.

Why build your house on government lands.. I blame FG for compensating criminality..


Same thing happened in Kaduna where some unscrupulous people built their houses on without approval or on government lands. Former governor El-Rufai demolished those buildings and even went ahead to make the owners of such properties to pay for the demolition because government bulldozers were used. And in the even that the owners of such properties refused to pay, Kaduna state government will head to court and force the offenders to pay of risk jail term.

Do u think if they built house on government land the government would've given them any compensation at all?

Did u follow the news at all? All the people who got compensated are people whom the government confirmed were occupying the land legally.

The issue is the compensation does not match even 1% of the actual value of the property destroyed and those people have gone to court to demand what they believe is fair

half way kee? They awarded 100km out of the estimated 700km. I bet they wouldn't complete even 50km of the Road before excuses and blame game will overshadow everything. But money must have been spent

Some of you open your mouths and speak jargon. Haba! Who told you all those lands are government lands? Do people get compensated when the houses they build on government lands are demolished?

The other roads leading from Lagos to Calabar have been abandoned by the useless successive governments and you're hailing this highway of fraud which Tinubu and his cronies are using to settle their compadres. 15 trillion naira will be more than enough to fix the perennial power issues we have in this country, and build at least 2 standard hospitals in all the states of the federation. Is a useless coastal highway the main problem bedeviling this country at this time? I don't know who did this to Nigerians but e no go better for that person

Your being an engineer doesn't have anything to do with the subject matter.
Answer my questions, "Who told you all those lands are government lands? Do people get compensated when the houses they build on government lands are demolished?"

Or you mean to tell me every parcel of land along the more than 100km stretch is government property?
