It's obvious you have not been to lago so in recent times.though there is still lots of places that have bad road but from what you mentioned above. Airport to lekki to epe;to say there is no standard road is wrong information. You can ask your friends and family that live in lagos


mrvitalis:
Fashiola was over hyped as governor ... honestly the first time I went to Lagos as a pH boy I was disappointed ...from airport to lekki ...not a single standard road ...the worst is that lekki epe Express

Now he has failed as a minister too

As a governor he was no we're near aklabio and ameachi in any aspect

Most of the roads from Airport to Lekki are actually FG roads which BRF maintained as much as possible.

Those who lived in Lagos prior to the Fashola era know better. More especially those in some of the remote areas. Many new inner roads were constructed to make accessibility easier. The link between Surulere and Isolo and the one from Ijora to Iganmu through the low income residential areas for instance. The link to Iseri Osun. The clearing of Oshodi which Soldiers in government couldn't do.
The Judicial reform. New hospitals were built and many more things....

This kind of information shouldn't be made open because it is not a statement of achievement but an admission of failure.

This country will eat itself, eventually. Cost of buying abroad is way cheaper than that of buying from Nigeria. Business people want to maximize profit. That's why they import

Small small. These people are getting sense...

Knowing how no decision is made for the common good in Nigeria just watch massive contracts being given to their companies to 'supply' bitumen.
Re: FG Moves To Stop Importation Of Bitumen by Pusyiter(m): 12:55pm On Jul 23, 2020
We are in third richest in bitumen deposit in the world if I am not mistaken
I know of a place in Ondo State that you cannot dig up to 10 feet before the water turns black because of bitumen deposit.
Yet, we import?
Well, even fuel we even produce, we also import it then what?
Nigeria, a theater of the absurd.

Importing bitumen into Nigeria when we have it in commercial quantities.

What is wrong with Nigeria?

Shame to all Nigeria leaders, both past and especially present.

And it will never be well with whoever did these to Nigeria

wrong info, Nigeria was never a producer of bitumen. The deposit at Ondo state is the second largest deposit in the world still left untapped.

Not surprising but we have oil and can't refine it and then import low grade dirty petrol from Europe that is suppose to be discarded.

Deposit? It means it was rightly achieved through importation. Then, stopping the importation is a wrong move.

Can you explain sir?
