What do you mean by entirely new roads? has roads become airport that you can build new one? One thing about APC is that they know how to make lies look like truth.
Don't you know it's more expensive to reconstruct old road than to build new one.
Wait o o, what's the need for this trash from vice president?
my brother don't mind the APC hypocrites... and we're waiting for them to construct the new roads; and if they rehabilitate ,SHAME on them.

"A single new road"


And a lot of wailers are already running unclad around the thread.

There is a difference between constructing a new road....and. Rehabilating an existing road.

Its a pity.
If you have a lot of existing roads to rehabilitate, why construct new once with the meager resources you have? A wise man puts to good use what he has 1st before acquiring new once. All over world, roads are mostly rehabilitated and not new roads constructed. The only reason your midget used to be pastor turned puppet is coming up with this is to debunk what Fashola said about GEJ. I guess the chief puppeteer Tinubu made your vp came up with this even if it had to be in the church if not what is the relationship between the subject matter and new road construction? Now that apc has been in power for almost one year, how many new roads have they started? Common budget has continue to linger on with different shameful controversies. Keep singing GEJ while your four years expire.

I think we are missing the point "No single New Road"....This is not talking about repairing or dualizing existing road... he is talking about constructing entirely new road...If such happened under GEJ..kindly tell me...I really want to know.
Who constructs new roads when existing roads are bad? Is that a wise call? I wonder if some humans called Nigerians got any brains left in them. Its almost 1 year since he and his boss came into power. How many new roads have they started?

Osinbajo is a prof, Fashola is a learner. I am sure he knows the points he's driving at. To build road is to start afresh/New ideas not patch-patch and modifications of roads and other sectors Jonathan government was found of doing

You guys are really dumb. Are you aware that there was a road from Ota to Abk before the one that passes through Ewekoro now. Are u aware there was an old Ibadan lagos Ibadan Express road before now, Are aware there was an ild Benin-Ore road before the one one that have just be rehabilated?

The essense of new roads is for easier accessibility, decongestion and development of local areas.

Another good example of a new road is the benin Bypass. Which was a brand new road....with that road...motorists dont need to congest the already congested benin city, wasting hours in traffic gridlocks. The simply ply the new road to avoid benin entirely.

I really pity u guys. Smh
"...a new road is the Benin Bypass..." its baba-go-slow that did that road abi?

hartopher76:
fashola will and tell us that gej built the highest number of roads in nigeria, osibanjo will tell us that non was built by gej so who among them is saying the truth.
Today I have confirmed the true meaning and existence of educated illiterates. Several people on here genuinely do not know the difference between building a NEW road and rehabilitating/patching an OLD existing road. It's truly a shame!

@Phockphockphock, can you kindly provide a reasonable link to your incredulous report?... You dont expect normal people to actually believe that GEJ built 25,000km of roads do you?.. abeg how many kilometres of roads dey naija?

I drove through Abuja-Lokoja road for the first time in 2004, at least I am sure that road has existed even before I was born. How do Nigerian graduates/undergrads not even know the meaning of the word 'new'?.... in terms of dualisation, work on that road has been ongoing since OBJ's days and it's still not been completed till date. So how on earth does anyone think it is a 'new' road built by GEJ?... Or is it Apapa oshodi?... a 'new' road?... God help us!

lookandlaff:
Nigerians call themselves educated, they read but don't understand. Osinbajo said Jonathan did not build any NEW roads, repairing existing roads is not building a new road so both Fashola and Osinbajo are right. Jonathan repaired more roads than OBJ ....I don't even know if OBJ repaired any road during his time.
Who told you Jonathan actually repaired more road than OBJ?... Who told you roads were not fixed under OBJ?... A lot of people have truly fallen deeply for the propaganda of the 2015 elections. By the way, who told you Fashola actually made that statement about GEJ fixing 25,000km of roads?. .. Try and google the statement and please point out one credible website that reported Fashola making that incredulous statement?

The benin bypass is a good example of a new road. And I believe it was built and launched in 2002 under OBJ.

Why are you defending the vp, you think you are the smart one here? How does that statement solve any issue in the country? These guys were elected to fix things and not to complain that this are broken.
Using your acclaimed smartness to defend something that is meaningless and without definite purposes to me is shameful.

Don't you know it's more expensive to reconstruct old road than to build new one.
Wait o o, what's the need for this trash from vice president?
Trying hard to sound intelligent but you only expose your ignorance. The VP may have made the statement for the sake of politics but every sensible person knows he is not lying at least. And did you just imply it is not possible or sensible to build a new road?... Did you also just say it is cheaper to build a new road than repairing an old bad one?... So if it's cheaper to build a new road, why wouldnt the government just build brand new ones side-by-side instead of patching bad spots on old roads?

An example of a new road was the benin bypass built by OBJ which cuts out about 2hrs from the journey of travelers as they avoid the benin city traffic. Jonathan could have built a new road if he actually built the 2nd Niger bridge because that would help travellers completely avoid the mad onitsha traffic.

A simple advice, stop exposing your ignorance by trying to insult the VP.

Just like you and I, we all have a right to free speech. The VP stating that no new roads were built does not mean he is not going to do his job. But then, you have no right to take away his right to free speech.

governance is continuity; even if a government is given 50years,they cannot do everything. Since gej could not complete it,then this government should .Rather than sit their ass down and work,they are there complaining of the past government, taking us backwards, and some persons will come here and be saying rubbish .
Really taking us backwards, Nigeria is making very great progress. This government has shown not just a desire but have taken steps to correct the most important subjects of our stagnation.

Corruption, indiscipline, transparency.

Was it not during GEJ tenure we were forced to accept that stealing is not corruption and that a goat should be allowed to eat that yam without consequence.

APC might not be saints but in selecting them into FG Nigeria has dodged a fatal bullet

Those roads particularly the Benin-Ore road drank the blood during OBJ's time. I remember when Diezani Allison-Madueke as minister of works under OBJ wept on seeing the condition of that road without her principal doing anything. Do I need to remind you that GEJ fixed the road?
GEJ fixed a portion of the road, just the same way OBJ fixed a portion of the same road. A large portion of the road is still bad till date, kudos however to GEJ for fixing a really bad portion and saving travellers a lot of headache. It is meaningless however to say GEJ fixed the road and then castigate OBJ at the same time. If you think GEJ is a messiah for fixing that bad portion, I wonder what you will say about OBJ who constructed the benin bypass (brand new, not patching) which cuts off roughly 2-3 hours of benin city traffic for travellers on the same road. The 2015 election propaganda has really distorted the arguments of many to the point of erroneously thinking GEJ is a god and OBJ a devil.

Okene-Benin is a new road taking you away from the hustle and bustle of Okene Town. If that is not a new road, then please try to define what a new road is? It is a by-pass just like the Benin interchange...

Yeaa Kema Chikwe my bad.
I had to bring the issue up to show you how useless it's building new roads when the ones you already have are in terrible, terrible condition.
May I ask you please, where do you think a new road should have been built?
A new functional road would be like the one new Ibadan/Ilesha road, which allowed individuals coming down Ife/ibadan road to go toward Ilesha without going through Ife.

A new road like the lekki/epe road


Like the second Niger bridge, or the East West road

Stating we don't need new roads is nonsense

The repair of existing infrastructure should not hinder the expansion of the network.
