The point is, Nigeria is far behind in road infrastructure. Condemning new road is not going to solve those problems quickly. We need as much modern road as we can afford to boost the economy and standard of living. There is no merit of the project far outweigh the demerits. We can not continue to be shortsighted. Nigeria need massive infrastructure and that is what the federal government is doing right now.
the coastal project is a commendable one for Nigeria and the current administration. But i am of the opinion that whosoever is in power there should be transparency in governance.
Must Nigeria 🇳🇬 continue to suffer because of few individuals can’t we shut these opposition up against a great project like this? Why are people so narrow minded why? Nigerians 🇳🇬 why do we hate better development why? Come to Miami here in the US and see there coastal roads this Miami coastal road opened Miami as the biggest tourist destination in the world. Let’s support development and stop killing it.
How many kilometers? What is the cost as compared to 700km ?? Is just like US government trying to embark on A coastal road from Alaska - via the Atlantic Coast from Nothern California to Maine? Does it look realistic? Florida coastal highway is just less than 100km in Miami Beach down to fort laudable
@@nedgrg6800 What do you intend to achieve with this your argument. Why are you allowing political bitterness to get the better of you in this case. This road is going to be a game changer for the South-south region and the entire country as a whole
@@rotimikayode1072 fact! The thing with the average Nigerian is he only sees the plate of food in front of him and forgets that the farm is bigger than the plate of food. This road is a FARM all these side talks and emotional blabbing are just plates of food.
You are in USA, I suppose. If this is in USA, ThiefTinubu can go to jail for conflict of interest. And you are writing that opposition should be shut up. If you are in USA, you must be an uneducated folk, working in a restaurant or a TAXI driver.
AG Dangote Construction Company Ltd The contract was awarded to AG Dangote Construction Company Ltd at the cost of N73 billion under the tax credit scheme of the federal government.19 Apr 2021 Apapa-Oshodi expressway ready in 10 months, says FG
So Pres.Tinubu should listen to these Self-Centered Politicians/People from certain parts of the Country who are asking for a delay of a South-South major Road Poject that has been in the Waiting for more than 40 years. Do they want us to Wait another Decade for it to Start?. Kudos to Pres. Tinubu and South-South people (Ben Bruce etc) who are coming out to Defend the Road Project.
Have they finished building the East-West Road, before dreaming of a project that ends in Lagos? Why didn't they start it in Calabar if they are sincere.
@@pauluwadimaThe contractors of the east-west road just signed a new contract with the FG. Please, you people should stop all these unwaranted opposition to what the President is doing.
I understood the arguments, nobody is saying it’s not a nice idea but not at this time we have several dilapidated roads, food and electricity shortages, there are so much pressing issues
@@ernestese6501 creating an alternative you say? My goodness!! Why don’t we repair the existing infrastructure before embarking on a new? Does it sound stupid to you?
Siemens is already building a 10,000MW power plant and upgrading the power grid to 24,000MW. Several other power plants projects are ongoing as we speak. You people need to stop this sore belly attitude towards the President.
Most of the dilapidated road you are talking about fall withing the ambit of the state government. Let the federal government do their job and hold the state the state government accountable to do their job in road infrastructure as well. And then we can go down to the local government responsibilities which also include local road project. It's that simple.
@@nedgrg6800Get your facts right. Their is nothing wrong with the federal government taking on major project for the entire country. When completed, the coastal road will ease a lot of pressure on commuting through the west to the east. What is more important in that in economical sense? My own is, as the federal is doing their own, let the state and local government also do their own.
Can the PDP point to any project of benefit to Nigeria after 16yrs in office? isn't it because the projects they initiate are designed never to be finished. Atiku right now wonders why the bid was not thrown open so that he will introduce his shell companies with criminally minded foreign contractors to bid and continue with the never to be finished projects that characterized the PDP.
It seems you just refused to address the issues raised by Atiku.the cost is padded.the construction company is a coy that has some relationship to Tinubu.the project was not advertised. There are many impassable roads in Nigeria. Why change the original route of the road.A lot of questions like all fraudulent fed govt projects.
@@josephihedoro8729 projects are redesigned according to new developments even already concluded projects, how can a project that is not to be 100% funded by govt be padded? with 30% of counterpart funding from FG, where is the padding coming from, did Atiku provide any evidence, yo talk about advertising, which other company in Nigeria today has proven records of coastal records construction? there are standards for awarding contracts even if we don't know what it costs, these are calculations that ANY serious person who loves Nigeria can do. Atiku realizes that the project will sink whatever is left of his ambition. He who comes to equity must do so with clean hands, can Atiku be said to be a such a person?
@@olukoredefakorede1422Well said. Many of these rogues are still walking the street unabashedly and honored by their sycophants. And no region of NIGERIA has been spared from this phenomenon.
If you get the coastal highway done and yet no regular power supply the much talked about economic benefits will be a mirage .In addition , if the other dilapidated federal highways that are supposed to be linked up with this highway in question ,remain in their present bad shape , the whole essence of the coastal highway would have been defeated .
My only problem is,the 15 trillion naira cost of constructing the coastal road is enough to link lagos deep seaport to east west road in warri delta state,through ekitipupa in ondo state and construct a train line as well instead of constructing just a coastal road for that cost..
Stomach infrastructure or ethnicity has brought out the foolishness of hitherto respected people like Wole Soyinka, Murray Bruce, Jide Otitoju, Daniel Bwala, Laborious Oshoma etc on national issues. What an irony!
Please jurnalist leave the president a lone, because at this time we are now his the right person for the job. One love. God bless and guide the president oi Nigeria
As much as I support the Lagos calabar road this man is not making any sense regarding the federal roads running thru the state. E.g lagos/Abeokuta exp, If you are assigning them to the state do it openly and officially and let us know it is now the states responsibility , we have never heard that narrative officially.
It is funny how some people see this project as anti-Ibo project when the Minister of works who is spearheading the project is an Ibo man. And the project will is to link the West to the East and by extension Igbo land. I can't understand the argument. But hey, it is Nigeria. We somehow always turn everything to tribal issue. Where I live here in Northern Virginia United States, a whole Marriott hotel was demolished because the state want to expand an existing road. Here we are arguing whether landmark should be affected or not when the business was not demolished but we be impacted by the construction. So what about all other property owners across the state whose houses have been affected for decades because of one road construction or the other?
Massive projects like coastal highway are done in countries with healthy economy. This is not a priority in Nigeria at this time. Nigeria is in coma and needs life support. Dilapidated infrastructures across the country. Poor health care. Poor educational facilities. No electricity. No jobs. No pipe borne water. Unimaginable insecurity across the country. Jail breaks everywhere. Ethnic and religious crisis. Herders/farmers clashes. Regional and community disputes . Political parties and contestants in courts across the country. Military and paramilitary institutions in conflicts. Judiciary inefficiency and corruption. Criminal politicians and dealers. Executive branch embezzlers . Aid and abating agencies and gangsters everywhere. Contracts awarded to invisible contractors. Excessive theft from government coffers. Zero accountability and transparency. Zero liability and punishment. The audacity of the elite class to steal with impunity. The list is unlimited. So let's beware for Nigeria is bleeding profusely.
Those in Arise TV and all the grand thieves who ruined Nigeria will not agree with you, even if you show them statistical and moral point of view some sect within Nigeria are bent on stopping that project.
Hearing the number of years they claim the project will last is a sign that it is a scam. This type of project take decades. These people don't even know what they are into. We have hundreds of important roads 5hat are death traps today and no one is paying attention.
This is federal government pp arrangement, President Tinubu's son involvement is already a bad market to the country. One of federal government projects, money collected by individuals involved and last, last abandoned as usual. Repairs the old non motorable before embarking on new once.

This is a Southern project, especially south south need to benefit Nigeria
If the project is completed, it will definitely open the costal areas. Let the south south benefit from their money
