What happened to the bitumen In ondo state .....not tapped

Fashiola was over hyped as governor ... honestly the first time I went to Lagos as a pH boy I was disappointed ...from airport to lekki ...not a single standard road ...the worst is that lekki epe Express

Now he has failed as a minister too

As a governor he was no we're near aklabio and ameachi in any aspect

PH miscreants are always coming to say nonsense about Lagos. Post pictures of your PH nah, make we all see. Nonsense without ingredients.

They should not stop the earning of 1$ please

babasolution:


Look at the opportunity cost also not just profit,the jobs it will create will even out profits lost

Sustainability is more important than job creation. Focusing on job creation is mere charity work. That's why we have Nigerian government spending billions annually on unprofitable ventures all in the name of job creation, from NPower to agencies.

I guess you didn't put into consideration that Lagos has metro density of 7,759/km squared compared to pH's metro density of 1,100/ km squared. Lagos would always be a tough place to manage.

Not holding brief for Fashola but those that hyped him did that based on what Lagos was before him and after his administration. You should see Lagos before his administration.

PH and Jo's are always going to be Nigeria's fancy grounds. Kano and Lagos are huge slums with pockets decent places. While Abuja would always be world class irrespective of whatever happens to Nigeria.

Lagosians don't mind though. For them, its just hustle hard and make the money.

Nonsense, Ameachi is good but the railway projects are financed by the Chinese therefore he doesn't have any reason not to deliver. Who is financing the power sector and how much money is dedicated to it?
You people just make baseless comparisons.

Temitopemo6e6:
this wicked government still dey import bitumen way be say na we get petroleum


bitumen is obtained naturally or
as a residue from petroleum
distillation.

Oponu! Who told you it's this government that started the importation? Get close to those in road construction industry and you will thank this government for the gesture! Most of you just like to rant!

okeyglm:
let them not confuse you people. Nigeria bitumen is of low grade quality hence can not be use as asphalt.

Can't the bitumen be refined to meet quality standard....
And looking at the sorry state of our roads...I really don't see the superior quality of this imported bitumen...
Except u want to tell me they are built with bitumen produced in nigeria....

ican2020:
Importing bitumen into Nigeria when we have it in commercial quantities.

What is wrong with Nigeria?

Shame to all Nigeria leaders, both past and especially present.

And it will never be well with whoever did these to Nigeria

I am.... Damn this country is a shit hole let's split walhai e don tire me... We have been importing bitumen!!!! Ha!!!

The one in ondo start has been left for decades still untouched, who we offend for this country?

Yorubas this country has to split for her betterment or restructured in its entirety, we are going nowhere.... Corruption here is something else.

That is how NDDC case would be buried because member of the house were awarded contracts.

You just want to inform us you flew to Lagos, Congratulations! Now face front.

You visited one day, my friend keep quite, even at the moment there is no Minister that is better.

He is transparent, resourcefulness, no allegation of malpractices.

Were you in Lagos before he was Governor.

BTW, Airport to Lekki is mostly federal road!

Ondo State has a large deposit of untapped bitumen, (world number 3) yet we are there importing. What a shame

Marveworld:
Really? All these ones I have been buying were foreign?

Meanwhile, we design heaven on earth, let's design your interiors.

Oh! My God!

Bro, you are a wizard!

I hope you don't charge too much oooo!

ikcid:

Nigeria has the second-largest bitumen deposit in the world. That we import what we have in excess is but a joke

Our leaders are thieves!

They can import ordinary sand... Its all for embezzlement of dollars....

Upworkwriter007:
You won't say this if you know Lagos before fashola got there.

This statement is an indictment on Tinubu.

Ameachi is miles ahead of him
Aviation minister is ahead of him
Should I name more ?

In 2016 there was an editorial floating around that Buhari granted a waiver to a French company based in Ivory Coast to import Bitumen into Nigeria in what was clearly a political settlement to the French govt for backing his campaign this is despite the fact that Ondo state has the largest deposit of Bitumen in the world.

Now they are rescinding their own stupidity and making it sound as if the policy of importing Bitumen started with them.

many are mad but few are
roaming the streets.

WE HAVE HEARD THAT BEFORE......

Nigeria has been ruled by slowpoke for all it's history.

Nigeria is greatly endowed with large deposit of natural bitumen at Agbabu, Ondo State. The country was reported to have a proven reserve of about 42.47 billion tonnes of bitumen, a quantity which is estimated to be second largest in the world but yet to be explored for economic purposes.

mrvitalis:

Oga there is no road the standard of trans amadi road in pH or airport road in uyo ...make una travel see development

Anambra villages have better road than Lagos

I do not know why you people are so dumb, you are always on the offensive and when you are paid back in your own coin, you will be shouting like a deranged goat, is there a road worse than Onitsha - Enugu Road?during raining season, there were full vegetation on the road,

When you want to talk about infrastructural facilities, please and please do not list any south east Town/City I saw hell there, The day i went to see a friend in Aba I thought i was in a Congolese village, the worst Lagos road is better than your erosion prone roads.
