Tinubu is using this Lagos Calabar project to milk Nigeria dry. This is his major scam. |

A solid infrastructure move. If the Lagos-Calabar highway is completed as planned, it could significantly improve logistics, boost regional commerce, and attract both local and foreign investment. Implementation will be key. |

Putindbutt:is this the "legacy project"? Lagos-Calabar Highway Costs 7 times more per km than Pan-African Cairo-Cape town route. 1. Nigeria’s Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway, a 700 km highway. Budget: $11–13 billion 2. Cairo-Cape Town Highway, a 10,228 km Cairo-Cape Town Highway Budget: $1.65 billion |

![]() In summary, this is another loan. All these external loans should stop. It appears as if there are a few people in the federal government and the lending institution who get commissions from these loans. When the federal government takes external loans, they indirectly take money from the general Nigerian population through naira devaluation, and excessive inflation. |

Milekedesigns:are there no existing roads within the Lagos/Calabar corridor? what is presently the state of those roads? how will the Lagos-Calabar highway improve logistics, boost regional commerce, and attract both local and foreign investment that the existing roads cant? what are the local and foreign investment that road will attract? |

Very interesting news. I fact checked on the Ecowas Bank website but didn't see it during a quick read. I noticed the bank still has Niger, Burkina Faso, and Mali as present members. High IQ ppl, please help me out comprehending this. Link below as proof that I tried to research the info. Also there are strong protests going on about conditions in Lome, Togo where the bank has its HQ. https://www.bidc-ebid.org/en/countries/ |

Ecowas better hold their money, giving out loans in the name of Nigeria for a tribal agenda is not right , we will repudiate all these loans taken to finance domination and control |

Putinofrussia:If you had used your head at all, you would show the 40 roads done with the $84 billion. That is about $2 billion for each road on average or N3.2 trillion per road. If you had also used your head small, you would ask why the $84 billion subsidy savings is more than the budget for 2024 and 2025 combined, yet we have a budget deficit from more loans than previous presidents borrowed. https://www.nairaland.com/8466231/nigeria-must-review-2025-budget If you are in the habit of using your head small, you would ask why ebilokan is borrowing money after saying he won't below, through his finance minister.
