any pathway is a road. There was a complete overhaul of onitsha/owerri road. With the way it was and the way it is now, it is a complete new road to all of us.
don't mind those retar.ded zombies, they have not travelled outside their state to see the calibre of the roads that were reconstructed.

What's the point in building new roads when the old ones are falling apart. Or are they supposed to abandon old roads and focus on creating new ones? No sense

Anyway, we will see how many new roads APC will complete, this one that they have begun reneging on all the too good to be true promises they used to fool their zombie worshippers. SMH!

Name one NEW road:

In the last ten years.
Oga name two major towns or cities in Nigeria that dont have a road network connecting them. Do you expect the federal government to start building small roads meant for the state government?

I don't know why a vice president that I admire so much will condescend so low at this time. What are they feeding him in Abuja?
If he is not turning into a dullard, he pose that question to Fashola who recently said that Jonathan constructed roads.

All federal roads have been constructed already. What remain are just dualization and repair which I am sure PDP have done over the year. If we should go by your question, tell me any federal road that APC will start and finish?

It's not by telling us u attended same church with osinbajo or have the same spiritual father or share the same food with him.
People should mention just ONE road started and completed over the past few years.
This is the kind of challenge Fayose should take up.
Fayose always deliver on his own promise. So forget, he's diff...
Besides that, the question was directed towards FG projects.

Are you by any chance arguing that there is no such thing as a NEW road? And with this sort of reasoning you think I am foolish? God helps us! How did Jonathan just attract these kind of things as his supporters? lipsrsealed undecided
I will only respond to you because you are polite with your response too. New roads is not something anyone should speak of but how to improve on existing roads. Federal governments everywhere hardly construct new roads, it is the state and local governments that identifies new roads and construct such but not the central government. What the vice president said was uncalled for and should not be celebrated by anyone. This is 2016 and people needs better directions and wants to have evidence for it. Shalom

I don't really want to believe that PDP did not build a new road, initiated and fully completed, within the period of 10 years.

Hmmmm

This dullness has reached epic and disturbing proportions. The 11 roads you mentioned above all existed before 2006.

Ezenwammadu, I suppose you should be an educated and enlightened person that should know the meaning of the word 'NEW'?

Now I do not have full info on the current conditions of all the REPAIRED roads you mentioned but at least I know the condition of the following which concern me:
- GEJ did not start the East-West Rd and he did not finish it. The road is still a long way from being completed.
- GEJ did not start the Abuja-Lokoja Rd and he did not finish it. A large chunk of the road is yet to be completed.
- GEJ did not start the Onitsha-Owerri road project, 95% of that project was completed under OBJ, GEJ only completed about 5% of the job and commissioned it.

I do not understand how or why these roads are being mentioned as NEW roads, these are roads that all existed before I was born. Even in terms of repairing the roads, GEJ only did portions, he didn't start and he didnt finish the jobs. So how these roads are CONSTANTLY being mentioned as GEJ's sole achievements completely beats my imagination.
You Apc guys are clowns,what do u mean by new roads,so GEJ should leave existing roads dat needs rehabilitations to build new roads dat leads to same destinations?

And the fact that we have bad roads means we should not build new roads?

Ezenwammadu:

Now this is a more reasonable approach to the argument which you and your Jonathanian colleagues should have followed instead of ignorantly tagging the VP a liar and disgracing yourselves online over semantics (meaning of the word 'NEW').

Now to answer your question, new roads are sometimes very necessary to open up possible short-cuts to ease traffic and to open up new cities. That is not to say the old roads shouldn't be fixed. A good example of a new road is the 24km benin bypass which was completed in 2002/2003. You dont want to imagine what life was like before this road for travellers between the SE/SS and Lagos who had to spend several hours in Benin city traffic. Another good example of a new road should have been the 2nd Niger Bridge including the 35km bypass route which would have enabled travellers avoid the deadly traffic of Onitsha when travelling to the SE especially in December (this is one big area GEJ failed to shine).

HIGHESTPOPORI:
You Apc guys are clowns,what do u mean by new roads,so GEJ should leave existing roads dat needs rehabilitations to build new roads dat leads to same destinations?
Even a toddler should know the importance of building new roads to link up cities and bypass areas of congestion. If new roads aren't necessary according to your 'non-clownish' wisdom, so why has there been a clamour to build the 2nd Niger bridge and an Onitsha bypass route? Meanwhile all the roads you enjoy today were once built by a human as new roads at one point in time.
