We know criminality when we see one. You can only deceive yourself with the coastal highway.

Heck you don't even know where that road will pass through in Bayelsa and Rivers state respectively.

It's a fraud like Dangote's refinery.

Oh wait...

Unamikot!

I grew up in Akwa-Ibom, very close to the Cross River. Precisely in Oku-Iboku a small community in Itu LGA of AkwaIbom state. I schooled in Itam and I shuttled that highway several times as a child. I am as much a stakeholder than you will ever be. The Obong of Morons should be asking the FG to fix the Calabar - Itu highway and not an imaginary coastal road that will never get to Calabar in whatever is left of your lifetime.

Which Yeye Hitech? Hitech that is yet to complete the Lekki Epe express way for over 15years now is a high quality company.

Yeye dey smell.

HITECH no even near Dantata and Sawoe not to talk of the likes of Julius Berger, RCC, MCC and the rest of them.



HiTECH hasn't finished the Lekki-Epe highway due to funding, not technical or engineering glitches. Don't always defer from putting blame where it should because of political difference. At least, you can see the pace the new work has taken already.
As for Lekki-Epe, the road project is undergoing this slow pace because of all future roads planned to connect or go around it at the LFTZ axis at Ibeju-Lekki. The funding, the construction model and the plan are different.
Remember, one of the best roads in Lagos and by extension, Nigeria as a whole was delivered by this same HiTECH. The APAPA-OSHODI-IYANA OWORO highway is one of a kind. Smooth, wide and durable.

Don't mix it together, the obidients and the atikulates mobs are actually the ones in needs of BATicides to clear off all the germs, bacteria and fungi eating away their brains cells (hence their deteriorated senses) and which have eaten away all their guts responsible to enjoy good things/news (so all that makes them happy now are bad and bitter news/things like their principal).
If you're amongst them, better go get your own BATicides at the nearest pharmacy or superstores near you before you becomr entirely irredeemable.

this is a road that consessioned, tolled and was making millions daily from the both tool gates before the end SARS and you are talking about funding?

They made so much profit from the tolls that Lagos state government was forced to buy back the concession from them, and you are talking about funding?

Hire many contractors for swift completion of Calabar-Lagos highway – Obong of Calabar


https://dailypost.ng/2024/05/17/hire-many-contractors-for-swift-completion-of-calabar-lagos-highway-obong-of-calabar/
I'm on the same page with the Obong of Calabar. I've also emphasized here on NL and in other convos that the construction of the strategic Lagos to Calabar Coastal Highway should be done simultaneously from the Calabar end and a middle section corresponding to the Delta or Bayelsa States axes to give a sense of inclusion and spread up the highway construction project.

The leaders of the Niger Delta States such as ALL the Governors of the South of South states, Chief Edwin Clark, Ben Murray-Bruce, Donald Duke, the Obong of Calabar, and more.

The respected American Development Economist and United Nations adviser, Professor Jeffrey Sachs has stated clearly in some of his lectures and videos that in times of economic downturns, new infrastructural developments with long-term loans help to attract investments to turn around the economy. Professor Jeffrey Sachs is someone who has always criticized the U.S. and Europe for not doing enough for Africa and also the IMF for imposing stringent conditions on developing countries.

First of, I brought up two critical reasons. One, funding, two, connecting future roads. Now to your,point, the agreement and plan for the portion concessioned was for the recoup of funding used in constructing that stretch alongside the cable-stayed Lekki-Ikoyi link bridge (which was equally tolled), maintenance, security of the two facilities as well as the environs, and the management. The deal didn't cover the reconstruction of other phases of the road. And even at that, the tolling system had stalled since about four years ago (since october 2020), so even the funding structure you pointed out has been non-existence for years so what's the point?Does any of these made it the faults of the construction firm? At least, LASG hasn't complained they had fully paid the firm, so you can't apportion the blame on the innocent,firm.
The second reason is connecting roads. Plans are being re-addressed to connect the REGIONAL ROADS, COASTAL ROADS (both of which are ongoing at present) with the highway in seamless fashion to facilitate smooth interconnected commute amongst all the major existing and proposed highways/roads/bridges within the peninsula and beyond. All these are never the faults of the construction company. We can always be careful with our argument without allowing political, tribal or sentimental undertone attached to it.

The important things to consider are: Design traffic volume (that allows seamless integration from and to other connecting roads); Level of service; Super-elevation, alignment and grades (allowing for no/less flood and total balance of automobiles); Lane width (to forestall accidents), durable and smoothetc.
