I remember when they were rehabilitating the road (I passed by when they were working on the drainage). The job was undertaken by Julius Berger, but it was not completed.

Isn't the point of starting a project to complete it on time and not years later?

Exactly. Why doesn't he just rehab the road and while at it build toll gates right at the port gates. How about taking a nibble at the Federal government's biggest cash cow in Lagos.

Illiteracy or half-literacy at work.

dabrake: Let's imagine the road is in a deplorable state, can't fashola repair it himself? He should learn from akpabio who rehabilitated most federal government oriented projects like roads, the university because 'it is a federal road but the majority of people affected are the akwa ibom indigenes. The university is a federal Government institution but 80% of her students are from akwa ibom. . .'
fashola should stop playing stupeeed politics here and fix that road irrespective of its level(whether state or federal) because those affected will be lagosians, that is if gej didn't really work on that road. Lagos state, as far as I am concerned, is the richest state in the country and also with the smallest landmass. If brf can't fix that little challenge, I will be forced to ask what he's doing with tax payer's money. If amaechi, oshiohmole and akpabio can do it, why not brf?

In your weak analysis, you said Lagos is the richest state and with smallest land mass. But you failed to include the fact that the population of Lagos is more than the combined population of the three states of mentioned in your post (i.e. Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Edo) and the first two states earned more monthly allocation than Lagos. Therefore, pressures on amenities in Lagos is so much compare to any state of the federation. As a result of over-population, the number of civil servants in Lagos is more than those states combined, yet you still want LASG to continue carrying the burden of the Federal govt on ports that fetches the FG trillions of Naira annually? Haba! Why can’t people like be reasonable for once and say things as it is?

Let every arms of the government do their job without expecting other to do it for them.

Please STOP being GEJ blinded.

Omexonomy said he doesn't know the part so described bad by Fashola even though he travels same road everyday.

Can you proof to us who is decieving who?(WDW)

I don't think you've seen this road we're talking about, that's why you can say this. And this is also the most important road in Nigeria. I know you don't know this road and if you do and you still made this statement........

Ikorodu road was once under FG but Lagos took over its repairs and rehabilitation, how long will Lagos state babysit the FG?? And you refuse to ask about what they do with all the monies borrowed and generated in this county.

You must be one of the cartpushers.
Sorry, for allowing your ignorance betray you in the open.
Fashola can never jump into any FG road without a mutual agreement on such.
Yes, only a mad man will put an okada on a road where a CAR revs at 5000rpm,
(to make it simple for you)on high speed as much as 120-140kph.
If you okada riders are not responsible, you will not force our state govt to be irresponsible. Cry till eternity, I will never support such stupidity.
In case you are tired, kindly advice FG to destroy their existing roads and tell Lagos to be on its own(Autonomy). Then Lagos will give you a better planned and maintained road with toll.
I prefer to pay toll on a good road than to keep roaming round in ditches.
Re: Fashola Writes FG On Condition Of Oshodi-apapa Expressway by ba7man(m): 3:24pm On Jan 07, 2013
It seems some people think this road is a 2lane express road. FYI, its a six lane express way that includes 2 2'lane service roads parallel to it. Total of 10 lanes.....running from Apapa to Oshodi....If you know the distance.

aribisala0: People should take note of the contribution of the port.This is MORE than oil from any state.So all those JOKERS saying LAGOS was built with oil money should take note.Lagos ports contribute MORE than any oil producing state


This is a joke, right?

naptu2: One of the solutions to this problem is to fix the railways. There's a rail line that runs right through the Apapa Port. Goods should be moved by rail from the ports to the hinterland.

This would reduce the pressure on the road caused by fuel tankers and articulated trucks. It would also reduce traffic jams caused by wrongly parked fuel tankers, fallen containers and broken down articulated trucks.

Fuel pipelines also need to be rehabilitated.

Excellent idea. Hauling goods out of the port via rail will definitely go a long in easing the stress on the road network that services the port.

@omexonony, are u that blind or what Cos i can understand what u mean by which part of the road is bad! Oshodi-Apapa road is a very bad road and also a death trap.

Have you now seen the follishness in all the solution you proposed on this thread?

How does he repair a FG road when he is being owed 51billion from previous repairs?

How does he put toll on a FG road?

Kindly explain

In a well governed country, a state governor/regional administrator would only do such (if at all) when natural disasters strike
Couldn't the VP just forward the letter to his boss?
And to think no action has been undertaken yet after 3months of the initial BRF correspondence to Aso Rock?! ?! ?!
When a road that is of critical importance to the NATION's economy is in this state,you wonder why the ministers of finance,works&transport haven't been queried,suspended or fired
They must be busy eating cassava bread seeing their work impact is non existent in this regard
Well it ain't suprising seeing Lagos-Ibadan&Benin-Ore expressways face dire straits too
Every thing johnny no shoes touches reeks with petty politics or/and incompetence
Dont worry he's busy seeking the face of his 'god' whether or not to contest in 2015 so no time to pore over administering Nigeria
