Yes. Nigeria now has a car race track.

The MotorSport Raceway, Evbuobanosa (MRE) is Nigeria’s pioneer race track. The location offers automobile-race enthusiasts an opportunity to demonstrate their passion for competitive car racing. Sitting gallantly on 130 acres of land, the MRE is strategically located in the very serene vicinity of Evbuobanosa – a town just 20 minutes drive from Benin-city, along the Benin – Asaba Highway – this location grants easy access from Benin, Delta State, and many other parts of the country.

The car-race track caters not only for car racing but also for superbike and sundry racing competition.

MotorSport Raceway, Evbuobanosa (MRE) is a total package. The MRE boasts of a full-service Tyre Center, Fuel Station with self-service pumps, a state of the art clubhouse with observation deck, restaurant with available catering, beautiful swimming pool, day garages and gift shop help to fulfill the needs of all customers utilizing the facility.

The track itself can be run in a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction. A total of 11 bends make the 2.3 KM race track truly memorable.

Besides car-racing, other events are hosted at this venue. They include Stunt bike Show, Roller Skating, Superbike race, Bike Drag Race, Speed cycling, health and Fitness run, Pageant, etc.

MotorSport Raceway, Evbuobanosa (MRE) is a private sector initiative.

Now, isn’t this the sort of projects government should encourage?

@Op, I didn’t see the most important facility among the ones you listed above.
Is there any functional and well equipped hospital/ medical facility within easy reach? That’s what makes the difference IMO

Land better used for agriculture.

Can you explain how this project would affect food production? the land utilized for this project is not even up to a hectare=10km², Nigeria's land mass is 923,768 km² of arable land. I don't know why Nigerians consider food more than any other form of development. This project when in full operation will put good food on many family's table. Besides most countries you admire today were once hungry but they endured hunger to develop other important sectors you see them enjoying today. Imagine USA in the 1950s and 1960s saying the citizen were hungry and did not develop space technology, would you have had the internet you are using to type this shallow thoughts of yours. Our youths need to embrace the current hardship to achieve something greater for themselves and their country.

incase of fatal incidents are their emergency air lifting ambulances?? Are there standby paramedics?? Lol the only helicopter close by will belong to an iconic looter �����

Reasonable questions, however i think its only a matter of time before this attracts interest/investments and all of these will be provided. A good start in my opinion, i can see the tracks hosting major racing events in a few years.

Sure all you have said is absolutely right. Only in Nigeria, sometimes you have to embark on some projects for want of trying and attracting investments as you move along. What should have happened in this situation is the tracks shouldn't have been open for use until health and safety was adequately considered and provided.

Lets hope the regulators (If any) do the needful.
