FEC Approves N58.4 Billion To Construct Bridge Linking Niger And Kwara by psychology1(op): 12:56am On Nov 07, 2019
The Minister of Works and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola, SAN. Speaking shortly after the Federal Executive Council meeting, he said reports on the poor state of the country’s roads were mere hypes.

The FEC meeting, which was presided over by Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo, approved N58.4billion for the construction of Bida-Sachi-Nupeko road and the Nupeko-Patigi Bridge across River Niger, linking Nupeko and Patigi in Niger and Kwara states.

it will actually make sense if we see the projects all these monies are been allocated for...because na every week we dey hear of one money or the other ..one foreign loan or the other ...and the infrastructure still remains bad...

I am not going to be critical of anything the government does even if it's on paper. Na talk we don dey talk even since Obj era. I don tire to talk

Whoever the cap fits let him wear it.

I think this a bone throw out there to make Nigerians think osibanjo still has some form of influence. Buhari first approved this money before Osibanjo did

Fashola have always been a chronic liar.. His stable state of mind was only seen when he was governor of Lagos. But his shinning start was killed off when he engaged this party... Fashola had this presidential characteristic about him but sold his birth right...

Fashola said the "...reports on the poor state of the country’s roads were mere hypes." How would he know when he flies choppers and airplanes all over Nigeria and rarely uses the dilapidated and dangerous roads?

It will not be well with this minister called Babatunde fashola for saying the poor states of our roads are overly hyped. I think he is absent minded. From Benin to warri, F9, Benin to okene F9, Benin to onistha E8, east west road D7, aba to PH F12, Uromi to Agbor F20, PH to Uyo F10, the list is endless and you say it's over hyped? Do these thief called politicians even use these roads? The answer is no. They fly pass them in helicopters. I dey my house , make them come arrest me shameless people with no conscience

Isn't N58.4 billion too much?

How long is the bridge with respect to distance?

How wide is the bridge going to be?

Which construction company is going to handle the project?

Such huge sum of money can construct glass bridge in China from Shenzen to Hong Kong (about 27.4 Km).

Our politicians are here again
God help us

Am seriously speechless

But it is already well with him while it is not well with you and your family. All South-East and South-South roads that you mentioned above have been constructing by your brother Goatluck Jonathan, so Buhari and Fashola do not need to do any work there. If your brother did not construct your roads, then it will be foolish of you and your tribesmen to expect Buhari and Fashola who are your enemies to construct roads for you.

Politics is investment you invest your votes and you reap infrastructure and appointments. The region that gave Buhari about 97% votes will get more infrastructure and appointment than the region that gave him about 5% votes. You cannot rob Peter to pay Paul.

Therefore, do not be too bitter that Lagos-Ibadan Railway is about 80% and that the Lagos-Ibadan expressway is about 75% and that Ikorodu-Sagamu road has been awarded while South-South and South-East roads are abandoned. The money for the construction of South-East and South-South roads is in imPatience Jonathan and Diezani Alison-Madueke's accounts.
