Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road, Oban Bridge Collapse, Ogun Rainstorm+ More | Eyewitness Report 

Bolaji, on behalf of 75 million Nigerians in the 8 coastal states, I say thank you. Thank you for not using your business interests to stand in the way of progress. 👍👍👍

There are existing interstate highways that are not motorable, not even used to capacity. I don't think a new road is what is needed. This is another form of Nigerian being indebted to these people via Tolling. The coastal highway is good, but i dont think the time is right.

Greetings from your brother in the south south. Thank you Bolaji for your understanding of nations development. Not those toxic children of hate, envy and anger whom are out to see that nigeria fails and even more fails under the leadership of asiwaju but Nigeria can never fail, they shall surely fail while Nigeria will continue to move and advance forward.

Umahi : " Forget beach, there is no longer any beach" He is simply telling the business owners the new reality on ground. 😊😊

This is good, as long as compensation is paid to those affected. The Minister is doing good job. ❤ He and his team are really doing great jobs. Lets us support him please.

best working minister

This road is going to be game changer to transportation, tourism, small business opportunities, industrialization, investment opportunities to Nigerians.

I really appreciate your efforts sir u are blessed

Please consider Okigwe Nnewi Road. It is a federal road too. Thank you

Lagos-Ibadan rehabilitation took how many years, East-West road how many years. If this Lagos-Calabar road is finished in 12yrs, it will be a miracle.

I hope this elephant project will come to reality. There are many roads abandoned,killing many road users.Where is the Umahi built Airport in Ebonyi.??😮

What is the load capacity of the bridge and the weight of the load the truck is transporting?

The power situation should be of concern to the present Government

When lagos ibadan express road was been constructed Nobody can predicted the kind of development and businesses we are seeing, so you can't predict the outcome of the coastal road, you can only imagine it.

Well, all said and done! Good for all, however I wish they make public knowledge of who and how much those that were affected get in compensation🧐😉

Have you guys seen that mass from the sea moving towards Lagos 🤔

This is an outcome of substandard materials usage in a building project or bridges. The contractor should stand for interrogation

How does one person (Landmark) stand in the way of a project that covers 8 states and affects 75 million Nigerians?

What happens to our existing bad roads?

2 times what to say in power abi

Wow wow wow and It's so good beautiful job development life of Federal Republic of Nigeria 🇳🇬 Sir and Well done for your good job Sir and Carry on Sir God bless you all Amen 🙏💚🤍💚🙏 and God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria 🇳🇬 Amen 🙏🇳🇬🙏💚🤍💚🌹💚🤍💚🙏

Did he say the law did not say you will pay compensation???? What's going on???? Kai😭

The question I would have loved to ask the honourable minister is why not starting this road project from the empty landscape and forest where demolition of properties aren't required so that there can enough time for those having properties around the city would be prepared to evacuate their belongings?

Gold coloured mic😁

I loud the effort of this administration, I 100% support this plan of the proposed road. Nevertheless Mr Bolaji Ariyo is a card carrying member of APC I knew him to be the Local Government chairman of O shodi Isolo Local Government and a former P.A to ....

He is now talking about two time tenure for My President when one is not yet finished.

Bolaji is a true nationalist. Highly commendable attitude.

Why didn't they use bridges to fly over landmark? We don't believe you guys anymore

Talking about the completion of this project you said it'll be completed under the two terms administration of Mr. President, sir, this is not a date when this project will be completed let the contractor tell the public the duration of his contract and expected date of termination. 27:14 A 700km of road can't be constructed in 8yrs rather a year or two maximum.

Yahoo government. We will see how this high level scam would end.

At this time, this is not a win win situation for the government, the citizens and the publicity to the world. The Coastal Highway is a good development by itself. The coastal highway if not properly build and maitained will be washed out to the sea by the power of Nature. Most coastal Highway in the world are not that too close to the ocean in most cases.

The question is why all these developments and huge financial resources of Nigeria been spent in Lagos. Are there no other big cities in Nigeria ? Nigeria has 36 States.

Tsunami, when are you coming here? Most the coastal road be very close to the Atlantic ocean? Ode minister.

The first phase of the project is to open up Lekki free trade zone... Note that this zone house money generating industries like Dangote refinery,Dangote petrochemicals e.t.c. Don't be deceived. this project will be completed in record time.. For, reference.. go and check the speed at which Lagos/epe expressway i.e. from Epe to Abraham Adesanya is been worked on in order to provide a temporary access to the free trade zone... Meanwhile,the real access to support the industries in that axis from the east,south-south ,north and west is the Lagos- Calabar coastal road.

The minister says the shanty or beaches belongs to the contractor 😂. What's a statement! The land and the beaches belong to the people that the federal government represent. We need beaches not just all concrete roads. This should have been taken through the back. It's also so funny he mentioned that the is a flyover over the dagonte roads but why wasn't this done with the same with our beaches.

Who is this woman always by David Umahi's side?

What will be the faith of that project as the country's break up might be this year?

Dave Umahi should go and mentor Pit OBI. Obi will soon start waging war against the better, more sound, more analytical Umahi.

If this project is not finished within the next 7 years of a southern presidency, believe me it will another abandoned project when a northern president comes in.

Tinubus mandate is now a problem for people standing on it.... one member was sported on wheelchair in foreign land.....

We go to Morocco, Spain, Portugal and the Caribbean because of their beaches. To call beaches chantees is absurd. Maybe it could have been better explain. After all English is not our mother tongue

Tinubu used igbo man to destroy Yoruba properties. 😊

This is a fail project you guys. Always remember thi my comment one day

Umahi, is a slave to tinubu, how many roads are ongoing in south east

Bolaji, not all people are APC members, who are rubbed with grease, to say all sorts of nonsense.

This is only Minister Nigeria got right since 1960.I stand to be corrected

Keep on working for yoruba and think that you will be given the post of President , vice or senate president.....you be mugu....this is the same mistake Nnamdi Azikiwe made. ......mugu....all these politics will fail you and you will 😢cry like a child

Rubbish. You have delapidated and unmotorable federal roads to be fixed and nothing done you are rather engaging on a project that will last 20yrs that might not be completed.
