It seems large sections of this coastal road is not even along the coast line.

Bluna:
Coastal highway is good. But this is a misplaced priority. What Nigerians need at this moment is not coastal highway. Almost everybody needs electricity to survive in one way or the other. But I don't think Nigerians need coastal highway to survive.


.. if we can just achieve uninterrupted 16 hours out of 24 in a day, our economy will no doubt improve and experience a boom

Can you afford a 20 to 24hr electricity? Or you think it's going to be free or govt subsidized. Even for Lekki now with 20hrs light people dey switch off their light to conserve spendings. Power sector is already privatized so the he more people can pay the more available it gets. It's like Dangote refinery. Prices have gone up but no more fuel scarcity like during subsidy.

Eriokanmi:
Why not sit in the middle of the road and be served akara everyday? Has the heavily publicised road quenched your hunger yet? Did you know how many roads buhari constructed without making noise in 4 yrs, incl railways? Part of the road is even flooded right now...poorly planned out. Tinubu will ask for loan to do road construction and still hire his company hitech to do major part of it. The huge part of the loaned money apparently enters his pocket. Aren't you tired of enslavement ? O gaoo

Buhari built the second niger bridge and also the benue bridge without any noise no loans were even collected.

You are quite right
The rotteness in power sector is even bigger than petroleum sector. There are cabal too in power sector.
The power generation is no more on Federal exclusive list.
Now state can generate electricity and distribution. Abia state is already generating power and lagos is already preparing as well.
If the regional resource control can be approved, then our development will be rapid and we can hold our governors accountable.

Both good roads and electricity are development combo and this government is working on them.

We shall get there.

This is not a coastal highway. We are still seeing only bushes and forest. The large number of akwa cross section of the road is not even on the coastline.

You are yet to tell us how many KM has been constructed so far.

Only the lagos section is a coastal highway. Others na bushes and forest we dey see.

I'm a manufacturer. No matter how much I spend on public power, it can never be as much as the huge amount I'm spending on diesel and generators. I run a commercial printing press, using many heavy machines. We use diesel of approximately 12-15k everyday and we work Monday to Saturday. Sometimes over 100k in a week on diesel and engine oil alone. So someone like me will never find it hard to pay over 100k per month for a stable supply.

And BTW, power is not yet fully privatized. That's a wrong info.

God Bless President Bola Tinubu
The Best President in the history of Nigeria
God Bless Akwa Ibom State
God Bless Federal Republic of Nigeria

E. Kperima 😂. We love our oppressors so much in this country

Mbanda:
Road without security is nonsense.

Your preferred candidate also promised to do road, Nigeria lack infrastructure to drive our desire economy, most road in Nigeria were built in 1976-1979, no major road or new created road since then.

Mbanda:
Road without security is nonsense.

What has your state governor even your community heads done to boost security ? Do you have neighbourhood watch ? Security is everybody's business. A time will come in this country when no one will be looking at the face of one president like an hungry child for provision of security, everyone will be on his own. PBAT will make that happen. If you like dont work with law enforcement to secure your communities and keep dwelling on negativities.
This country is being restructured bit by bit but people fail to realize.

Am sure if you achieve 24hr power you will find something else to bitch about. Cuz if you can't appreciate this you won't appreciate anything.

Fine, I understand your case and I agree that you need it. But how many of people in their private houses can afford commercial electricity. In Lekki, many houses on Band A now rationalize the use of their ACs unlike before. Some even disconnected their meters because they can afford to recharge. An average 2 bedroom family house on band A under Eko Electric costs around 50k without AC usage. How many people can spend 50k per month on electrify in Nigeria? What's the average minimum wage? So, it's an issue that needs wholistic solution.Govt cannot afford to subsidize electricity to that level. As Nigerians disposable income rises more of us would be able to pay for energy usage. Govt should first focus on creating prosperity for majority. Is it people that can't set up Akara business for themselves that would pay 50k per month for electricity? Rome was not built in a day. We need collective prosperity first. Meanwhile factories can have special priority energy supply lines or areas.

Comprehension seems to be your problem. I've already appreciated the project in the comment you quoted. I voted Tinubu in 2023 because of 3 reasons: Electricity, Economy & Restructuring. I've stated this on many occasions in this forum.
I didn't vote him because of coastal highway. We all have priorities, highway might be yours, but not mine. Electricity is very important to my business. I prefer stable electricity to coastal highway. Most Nigerians also feel the same way. If you do a poll among Nigerians today to pick between coastal highway and stable electricity, over 70% will pick electricity over highway.

THIS ROAD IS VERY VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT TO US FROM THE NIGER DELTA.....

osuofia2:
Akwa Ibom is beautiful and safe, if not for distance between others, i for de like holiday there, i have been there more than 3 times

30 Major Milestones In The Health Sector Achieved By President Bola Tinubu

How major are these things compared to petrol with petrol price that has risen and impacted everything else in hyperinflation spiral?

Why has the master strategist of balablu bulaba town hall clowning propaganda failed to crash petrol price below N185 that it was in January 2023? Any idea

Deltafirstson:
Although the pump price of fuel was N197 when President Bola Tinubu took over on May 29, 2023, the product now sells for N617 per litre – less than two months after.

In his inaugural address, Tinubu announced that subsidy was gone, fulfilling a promise that all leading presidential candidates made during the campaign.

Nigerians have been lamenting the hardship occasioned by fuel price hike. Amid the lamentation, a video where Tinubu campaigned to slash the price of fuel went into circulation.

Checks by Daily Trust affirmed the authenticity of the video uploaded on the YouTube page of Channels Television.

At his campaign rally in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, on January 25, 2023, Tinubu spoke on a number of issues, but those of fuel scarcity and naira redesign made the headlines.

However, Tinubu who spoke in Yoruba language, also assured the crowd that though people were saying petrol price would hit N200, it would be reviewed downward under him.

“The great Nigerian youths, the great Nigerian students, the confident Nigerian youths. This is a revolution. This election is a revolution. They are plotting, but they will fail. They said fuel price will increase and reach N200 per litre. Go and relax, we will bring it down,” he had said in the 7th minute of the video.

Where are the children of h@t£

You mean children of perdition?

christistruth01:
They are still in the Remi Tinubu thread crying and wailing over her Akara comment

Less than 70 km built for a road of 800 km ......best to keep your bragging right for pocket for now! You never even jam the 1000 plus 10 creeks and rivers in the Nigerian delta proper..............best option for the spendthrift in Aso rock is to take the Lagos end to warri and join it to east west road and join the Akwa ibom end at Ahoada to the east west road after bypassing port Harcourt ....save what is left of the 12 billion dollars for an east west rail line!

Can't stop congesting Lagos.

Mbanda:
Who will play such road when it's obvious that the road will be bandits infested unless Obi takes over as president.

So it's only when obi takes over as president that Nigeria will b safe?

So it's safe to say obi is sponsoring insecurity to give the president a bad name n once he enters it will stop

Bluna:
No they are not.
It is very obvious that this government does not have electricity in their top priorities. In my almost 50 years in life, I can boldly say it that this 2026 is the year of worst electricity supply in Nigeria. Only God knows how many businesses (especially SMEs) that have closed down this year.

They are, electricity generation has increased and debts are being repaid. No government has supported SMES like this present one even though buhari started it
