The meeting was not where journalist will be asking for EIA report for the project.
Arise journalist should know their bounds.
It was a problem solving forum for people getting compensation for encroaching of the right of way a project that had been on the drawing board for decades.

Domaining101: Popular Nigerian Travel and Tourism YouTuber Tayo Aina, has come out to share his take about the current controversies surrounding the coastal Highway project that resulted in the demolition of the popular Landmark Demolition beach in Lagos.
Tayo Aina who has almost a million subscribers on his YouTube channel mainly focused on travel and tourism, communicated his thoughts through his verified social media handle saying -
Tayo Aina
This one just dey rant for nothing sake. Building a resort on the right of way of a national road project is not an investment.
SoNature: The only things that matter to us in Nigeria is chasing after women, betting, drinking, religion and corruption. Everything else na cruise. Nigerians are not even serious humans!
When I heard the owner of Landmark argue that he knew about the road project, acquired his land so that the road could run behind it and that this administration came on board and altered the project course to run through his beach front, I was shocked! Why are we always like this in this country?
PS: I didn't know that Tayo has left the country. People in government and the lunatics who support them make it very difficult to honestly like this country.
Don't be fooled.........the coastal road predates all the development happening along the coast.
Gistmedia10: The Sokoto State Government according to reports on Tuesday, provided twenty operational motorcycles to enhance the efforts of the State Command of the Department of State Security in combating banditry in the eastern part of the State as reported by NTA on Tuesday.
During the presentation of the motorcycles to the State Director of the Command at the Government House, the Secretary to Sokoto State Government, Muhammad Bello Sifawa, emphasized that the gesture aims to bolster the Security Forces' endeavours in safeguarding the lives and properties of the people in the State.
These should have gone to just one local government council for street patrols.

naptu2: Bash Ali was a Nigerian boxing legend in the 1980s and 1990s. However, since the early 2000s he has been trying to enter the Guinness Book of Records as the oldest boxing champion.
President Obasanjo initially wanted to sponsor the fight, but AIT sponsored a warm up fight against another African boxer and Bash Ali performed woefully in the fight, so Obasanjo pulled out of it. Since then he has had serious problems with every sports minister because he has been trying to force the Federal Government to sponsor his fights.
These are previous Nairaland threads and posts about the issue.
What is Bash Ali still looking for...........he was a former world champion and he has never deem it fit to produce Boxing Champions like himself from the ranks of teeming youth of this country.
What a tragedy he is....I have watched him time without number over the years embarrassing himself looking for sponsors to organise hard to believe boxing shows for himself and not the youth of this country.
If he doesn't apologize, the minister should go ahead and sue him, to teach him an eternal lesson he will not forget in his life.

In the aftermath of the tragic boat accident that claimed the life of Nigerian actor Late Junior Pope, survivor TC has left many intrigued by a peculiar ritual performed just before boarding the ill-fated boat.
"When I was about to enter the boat, I poured the Fanta I was holding to greet the water spirits," TC shared, recounting the moments before embarking on the journey.
The boat, which was carrying several passengers including the late actor Junior Pope, encountered turbulent waters leading to a devastating outcome. Junior Pope, known for his roles in Nollywood films, tragically lost his life in the accident, leaving fans and colleagues mourning across the entertainment industry.
Meektunz: It is sad that we really love taking risks in this country, this is not the first time boat mishaps have been happening in various rivers & dams in Nigeria and the passengers die while some go missing due to negligence of life jackets. Why would school children like this be taken on a boat ride excursion without proper arrangement of life jackets for the pupils?
Mindlessly dangerous risky boat trip for those young souls.
This how Nigerian endanger each other's lives and when the unimaginable happens we all blame the government.
