nesta007:
Many Nigerians disagreed when Vice President Yemi Osinbajo said that the Federal government in the last 10 years have not constructed a single road in the last 10 years. His spokesperson, Laolu Akande, has asked Nigerians to name road projects completed by the past administrations in the last 10yrs.

We elected you guys to work, go and work and stop reminding us of the past Govt. We'll do the comparisons of the present and past Govts ourselves. Ok, later you'll tell us that PDP never did any railway projects. What would be your reaction if they start enumerating the road projects they completed?

How many of those roads have you plied? Also I think the Abuja airport road is on that list. Katampe - Zuba road is also part.
Lets see how many NEW roads APC will start and complete.

are these new built roads or repaired road? go back to the question and answer properly

It is obvious that some people cnt differentiate between construction of NEW roads and REHABILITATION of existing roads....why are some people so daft like this??

You too na daft. If you did not tell us what you mean by New road. Shey they should create new road inside bush or the road should pass through your compound?

gunuvi:
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

The VP's statement was never meant to be celebrated, it was just an innocent passing statement which wasn't meant to be broadcast, not until GEJ supporters pounced on the poor man labelling all sorts of derogatory names chief of which is LIAR. The irony of this case is that the man spoke the truth but up till now, a lot of numskulls still label him liar. And this has now prompted him to react through his spokesman.

East West Road you listed as 2 & 9 is not complete and includes Benin - Ore section.

Omonigeriarere:
You dey mind those imbeciles? EVen the Lagos-Ibadan Express Road GEJ used to campaign despite the fact that it is not a new road is not half done.

Guy if you check it says 10 years, GEJ ruled 6 yrs, This drunken spoke man said in 10 yrs PDP did nothing, so 10 yrs ago where was the East Rd at? the Lagos rd at? 10 yrs ago is 2006 just so you know.in 2008 I drove frm warri to PHC, all that was seen as the east west rd was attempt to build the bridges.Go there now and see.

Abeg enough of this new road topic from ACUTE POVERTY CREATOR known as APC. What is the need for new roads while we have death traps waiting since time immemorial for rehabilitation. I prefer and appreciate any government which consider rehabilitating existing bad roads to constructing new ones. Osibanjo can construct new roads especially from Abuja to Heaven and let us hear word.

I drove that road 2014 february. I was on 180km/hr on an average both legs of the journey. Can an incomplete road afford me that opportunity. A road that's currrently one of the very best in the country.

martineinstein:
am from Edo state, bro.. Dat Benin-ore road is half competed... One side is completed(ore to Benin) and the other side(Benin to ore) is still bad

mynd1:
Gbam! Where r wailing Zombies when u need them most?

A stupid question being asked here. The real zombie is u who allow the politicians to play on ur psyche. Today they tell u the last govt didn't do new roads, tomorrow dey will commission last regime project like fashola n amaechi did recently and tell u govt is continum. If he want new road let him tell fashola to abandon lagos ibadan road n build new one may b dat will make more economic sense. I think the question is hw many of Apc promise hv been kept

no. 1 is re-habitation so its different from constructed, no. 3 as at 28/02/16 was/is 70% completed others I have never ply them b4.

Dahveydson:
Your argument is invalid. Governor Sullivan of Enugu state, constructed a brand new road linking Enugu to Nsukka.

Now that's a state. If a Federal Government of 10 years cannot show a single new road it built from scratch then it is a disgrace and shouldn't be defended.

Again, Governor Sullivan didn't abandon other states road but improved and maintained them while he built that road.

Like I said, your argument is invalid.

Nigeria is finding it difficult to maintain existing roads, and you are talking of new ones. play the game simcity 2000 or 3000 and you will know how difficult it is to maintain a city with to many roads. if you ask me, I will say our federal roads are enough as they are, we just need to maintain them properly, not build new ones that we can't afford to maintain.

Will a new road be opened for opening sakes? I will just start opening road for settlements that don't exist abi? Please we should reason with our heads biko

Can APC PLEASE focus on the work ahead? I don't care whether so and so only reconstructed old roads or whatever. I care about here and now. We need good roads now, we need electricity now, we need to diversify our economy now, and so on... NOW! These fools haven't done anything but spend the whole time whining and complaining. PLEASE build new roads if the other administrations didn't. I don't even know why this conversation is happening. APC, get off your asses and get to work, the country is in a mess!!! I feel like slapping all these fools arguing here. Nigeria is a mess and all you can do is argue about petty, inconsequential crap. If you care about the future of the country and the conditions your children will live in, you will not waste precious time stupidly. The vice president is sounding like such a baby. You know why the past administration casts such a long shadow on this administration? Because APC refuses to move on and begin their job. Are you still campaigning FOOLS.

Do the work and then compare yourself with past administrations... capisce?

Construction of Kankara Gurbi road

Construction of Bida – Sacci – Nupeko Road

Construction of Oju – Obussa – Ainu Road

Construction of Jarmai – Bashar road

Construction of Jalingo – Kuna Lau Road (Section II)

Construction of Gombe – By Pass Road

Reconstruction of Benin – Abraka phase I

What do you gain from falsehood?
The deleted items are roads within my locality and there are incomplete.

Govt is a continuum baa? They finished the projects they inherited and couldn't finish the ones they started, why not the present govt finish the ones started by their predecessors that wasn't finished and avoid they themselves starting new projects and not finishing it. This is nothing, doesn't qualify a news cause am sure this same govt after 4 years will be guilty of same offense. Our public officials should just shut up and work.

that why u fail exam ...they say name new ur are outlining upgraded or renovated one

Let's call a spade a spade and give God the Glory, Port Harcourt to Yenagoa section of the East West Road is not fully complete.

For too long have we been oppressed in Nigeria that we are satisfied with crumbs while the politicians are eating straight from the bakery.

he should go and rest,is governance not a continuous process, Benin - Ore road and Onitsha-Owerri expressway was completed.

The question is idiotic. Laolu knows that

As if this present federal government will construct a new Road. You only construct new roads in the villages. That's the responsibility of state governments.

The standard of the last government seem too high for the present government.

They shouldn't complete ongoing roads. They should please construct new ones.

phemmyutd:
are these new built roads or repaired road? go back to the question and answer properly

Wait untill you start and complete a road project b4 you start castigating the former Govt. cos as it is now you've not done or fulfilled(rather you are denying them) any of your campaign promises not to talk of completing your own projects. Stabilizing the economy alone is making u grow grey air not to talk of mere starting a project. Liars

That road is the biggest scam ever. Billions spent with little result to show

Whoever says that that road have been completed is a dreamer.

NewNigeriaMind:

In the last ten years.

Onitsha-Owerri Road. Contractors: CCC & JB
