If na one governor in other regions or even Tinubu list roads like this as achievement, you will hear them say things like, "waste of public money" "how much is bag of rice?" "It is 2026 and Nigeria politicians still celebrate road as achievements" "How does this solve the hunger in the land"

The hypocrisy.

Like an Emeritus once said, "We all know what we are doing!"

Tharyor1984:
what have we glorified from our past leaders/! Mention one please, Rome was not built in a day, road projects are going on like this all over the country and not that road alone, no president can fix all u are mentioning less than 3 years,when u see someone that is doing what has not been done before I was born, let's appreciate and pray for his success, if he can fix our roads in 4 years then there will b chance for other areas to be fix, even state and local governments have more money now and they are fixing road too, let's always be in a positive side for our country, that's when development can come in, even the blind can see that the type of road constructed now is going to last long, and not a system that the next president will still come and spend money on the same road, by that next president will b able to focus on other pressing need or if u hv seen the president that has been up a doing like this in nigeria before you can let me know

Willy2025:
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR is the best thing to have ever happened to Nigeria in the recent years. This is the same road abandoned by Buhari and Jonathan for combined 14 years being fixed by Tinubu in a year. Tinubu please carry on
