I thought GEJ already approved this same centinary thing.

Nice one though, but I see no season why PMB should take credit of this project. I mean, it was birthed under GEJ and approved under GEJ, even the compensation were still under GEJ, so, what's this fuss about?

Osinbajo, just see your life, because of partisan politics, a pastor and a professor of law can no longer call a spade a spade without fear or favor?, ISORAI, kwanchiniu

I just hope the exercise would be transparent this time

Thank you GEJ for the initiative Sai Buhari! Sai Nigeria!

California30:
Who is Buhari ??
I give no flying fucck about the project.
Na building we go chop ??

Cool down and reflect on what led to the positive nod given to the project by Buhari.

The National Vice Chairman of PDP - Dr Caro Ojougboh petitioned Buhari asking him to cancel the project because it was a scam by the former SGF - Anyim who he claimed personally owned the project. The media started feasting on the petition with some reporting that the Minister of FCT was forced to issue the C of O for project land in the name of Anyim.

Everybody expected negative reaction from Buhari especially since the Board of Directors of project is populated by PDP chieftains - Anyim, Ayeni etc but he rather listened to the defence presented to him by the Board and decided in favour of continuation of the project.

Good initiative baba.
What PHD holder cannot initiate in 6years baba that no go school can do it.

Reference:


Will you stop all this red-neck lizardry. A project of this size and complexity requires 'continual' affirmations at the highest levels throughout its execution especially when the government has little financial stake in it. As long as we donot practice true federalism and the centre calls all the shots, investors will continue to seek approvals, permissions, affirmations, blessings (call it whatever you wish) from the centre and that means the President. Take that for granted at your peril. It is the structure.

As far as it is in the North ? Approved.

Second Niger Bridge ? Suspend.

When the the ghost palm ripes, the ghost will pluck it. A word is enough for the wise.

fairheven:


I sincerely believe we are lacking Leadership in the Southeast,this second NIGER BRIDGE has gotten to a level where the south-east region can come together and pull resources to Build the second bridge. Even with "public-private partnership",because they are making us look like outcasts.

For us as a region,the water has come to our neck and its either we swim or get drowned
There so many independent African countries that have built such projects, whose population is not upto the south-east region,so while remaining in Nigerian for the time been, we must think and act like an independent country
SAM MBAKWE spearheaded the south-east AIRport in owerri, why can't we do similar project?

chigoizie7:






I knew all that, just like the VP knew all that too.

My point Is that, they should have given credence to the past admin which stated it from scratch till its approval.

It should have been "PMB re-approves the centenary project" because it has already been approved but was only subjected to investigations due to petitions by some people. Now that PMB has listened to the board, and gave a positive nod on it, I didn't expect the VP's comments to read anything like the "present administration" seeing to the compensation of the land owners nd all that, because all that has been taken care of by the last administration.



My point is, give credence to whoever earns it.

You are just getting riled up for nothing. Did you see the word 'Approve' in the statement issued by the presidency? Strictly speaking, the project is not subject to explicit approval of any president whether GEJ or PMB. It is a private project heavily backed by foreign sponsors. What is required is positive body language of the president and explicit approval of relevant agencies - NEPZA, FCDA, Development Control, FEPA etc.

If the president disapprove at this stage, what is he going to do? Nationalise the project or return the investors' funds?

You can see from Osibanjo's statements that the Presidency is actually playing the role of the advocate for the rights of the land-owners. If it were government project, presidency would have simply ordered compensation to be paid rather than expressed concern.

The essence of the meeting yesterday was because somebody as high up as a PDP vice-chairman and who should know, alleged that the project is government-owned but fraudlently cornered. Surely the president must seek clarification on that.

The Eko Atlantic is a similar project, when did you here of president's approval or interference in it? but GEJ fully supported it and even visited the site.
