iwaeda:Stop talking nonsense! This is Exactly what the minister is saying. Be constructive in your criticism. How can a meter be N75 million when a kilometre is N7.5 billion? Imagine you posted this with bold font! Just to spread lies! A meter is N7.5 million not N75 million |
| Re: Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway Costs N7.5billion Per Kilometer - Dave Umahi by delzbaba(m): 10:16am On Oct 14, 2025 |
to be sincere this is an almost accurate estimate of the cost of such a road, non-engineers will not understand. |

Please there's no comparison between Julius Berger and this company, is it in terms of equipment or expertise, what aspect exactly can they be measured alongside Julius Berger? |

Way too much, the sand is gotten from the beach, federal government should have ways to source affordable materials for it's projects, given the vast resources we have, quarries for granites and boulders, limestone etc. |

Ofunaofu:That was the initial figure he gave us publicly, today again he has shifted the figure from the initial ₦4B to ₦7.5B in less than one year... I knew it will come to this, it's difficult to sustain a lie when pressed so hard.. It's just unfortunate that our media has become so docile that they cannot ask questions to these thieving politicians, those that have the courage to ask questions are either bullied or locked up in sell , |

Nobody is talking about the environmental impact of this coastal road, same as nobody talked about the sandfilling of bar beach for the emergence of Eko Atlantic, which has caused floodings along the coastal areas of the South. The effects of all that sandfilling is why there is massive floodings on Lagos Island now. This coastal highway will disrupt the natural ecosystem along the coast and lead to years of pain and possible displacement of many communities.

The N7.5B average cost is inclusive of two overhead bridges, one at Eleko junction The other at Marwa junction. (For cost comparison, The Loko-Owetto bridge is about 1.3Km and costs N54Billion) Assuming the 2 bridges costs about N200Billion The cost per km of the road will come down to about N5Billion Naira.
