What exactly are they bulldozing at the landmark facility? I just wanted to match what Dave Umahi, the Works Minister said on TVC. Chanel's and Arise TV Channels. He said exactly that no part of the Landmark's structures will be demolished.
My question is what happens if Tinubu later abandons this road project because of the resources to complete the project?
Some people are not understanding the pressing issues of the country, only to comment about arise TV which is the best station in Nigeria.
Don't mind them it's because they are used to lies and deceit so when ever anyone says the truth they will call him enemy of the state
@@obioraugwumba4725the road will be constructed whether you like it or not
One thing I know is, no matter how much you steal, we are all going back to the Lord empty-handed. Nothing will be taken along.
How can you call a project that has been planned before Jonathan regime a rush.
So what stopped Jonathan from going on with the construction, may money? Stop that nonsense. Nigeria government destroys but don't build.
Nigeria continues to do the same thing over and over. No generation learns from the past. Every generation wants to showcase their own mumuness. The major problem of the country is power /electricity and no one is going there. There are more bad roads than good ones and they don't want to tackle that one.
Really? And GEJ refused to embark on it in its own wisdom was for nothing?
Any way when it's completed it will lie there waiting to be put to economic use.
Let me just hint you, you will be vexed at the end of the day. But kwantinue with your support. This govt needs you now more than ever. Lol
No water, no electricity, no food, no housing, education on the verge of collapse, the masses need BASIC amenities, refinery not functioning, unemployment on the increase, hospitals in shambles, please i beg can you the needful, Nigerians are talented i beg again help them.
Give your advice to your governors in south east. The poverty and violence have been problematic for decades. Go and solve your problems instead of running to Lagos/south west. Fix your region, let the rest of the country come to you
@@user-fp5hq5kj2b We want out. Support us to leave... its as simple as that, so you can enjoy yourselves the way you want.
Pls stop rambling around, South East wants out for years now, support them and be sincere for once.
@@user-fp5hq5kj2byou guys are biggest part of the problems in this country, very very soon you will hear funny story about this project continue with your madness!
It’s Nigeria so I am not surprised they said the road will go one way then changed it to another way . Lack of consistency . And fuel scarcity it’s part of history of Nigeria . Yes it can happen on any country but Nigeria it’s been around. For decades and we all know the root cause . I laugh when always do comparative analysis
The president wants to build the road to connect Eko Atlantic to Lagos Free Trade Zone and stop there. The road will not get to Calabar as the will to do that is not there. There's no sincerity in government.
This is not the right time for the road. There are several federal roads that are in reck that during Rainy season it's a no no!!!
And use errand boy like Amechi building rai road to Niger, when other parts of Nigeria, even oil producing states have no oil?
Sad.how can Nigeria reach its potentials?
Coastal road, a step in the right direction. The government should be applauded for doing the right thing. Those that own businesses around should understand there's a greater good by government's resolve to commence the construction of the road. Take it as sacrifice. Emmanuel Atuchukwu
Rufai is human after all 😢
Where is the money. Thousands of uncompleted federal road projects in Nigeria, now another elephant type road project. This again will run into many decades.
Just curious, if this road will be completed in eight years, Why not give building owners 3 to 4 year notice period while work is going on in other segments.. Lagos badagry road comes to mind.
I have also seen roads/bridges built around existing structures for aesthetics and tourism
The real truth is that Eko Atlantic Company wants to expand its land area by acquiring the frontal coastline of that area of lagos to make a new and bigger Ako atlantaic City. But they want the Federal Government to pay expensively for it. The Contruction is done by a subsidiary company owned by the same owners of Eko Atlantic City called Hitech Construction. And this is a No bid Construction Contract. If this is not a conflict of interest tell the Nigerian people what it is. In a Country that has Checks and balances and rule of Law , the people that awarded this huge project to this Construction Company should be investigated and if found guilty should go to jail for defrauding the Nigerian people. It is important to note that Nigeria is a country with no adequate electicty, No good infrastructure, including bad and neglected road net work, no good drinking water supply, no heaith care, no adequate security and long lines at gas stations because of fuel scarcity. Nigerians are always told to sacrifice and suffer for the Country yet the government could borrow huge sum of money with high interest rate for a Luxury and uninhabited area of coastal highway Construction and demolitions.
The beach has been turned to private property and Nigerians are being asked to pay to enjoy what should ordinarily be free for the citizenry.
There are thousands of resorts all over the world whose beaches are private. Why don't the Yoruba come out and declare that they are killing Landmark Beach because the owners charged a fee for entrance.
Every indigene in Calabar is been compensated, from Oil exploitations to road demolition FG pays them for it. they're not like Delta State and PH with corrupt leaders.
You are mad. Simply mad!!!
@@olufisayoasimi6088Lol. Fisayo don press P. 😅
@@longinusukenta I live in the US and there is no beach here that is private. Businesses are not allowed around the beach and everyone is free to go and enjoy the breeze and even swim at the shores.
Remember, Umahi's 10% is built into the total cost of the contract. He is a beach.
Clearly this is what you get when you have a usurper in power - misplaced priorities, corrupt procurement process and of course maximum insensitivity.
Misplaced priority. That's the write statement
Landmark can't buy ROW Ruffai should know that for sure. Billions of taxes! What is the total taxes paid in LS
Rufai you go explain tire 😂😂😂
God bless oseni
We are very antagonistic of any move by the Government becos of political affiliations not because we are interested in the landmark business.The land by the law of the land is on R.O.W and a logical business should not have invested knowing fully well the implication of this.The road to Calabar will open up Nigeria to easy movement of goods and raw materials in the country increasing the aggregate output and greater export opportunity.Also note that we infrastructural deficit that even if we dedicate 50% of our budget consistently for 40years we cannot attain.This administration has taken a leap and we are complaining.The first plan is lagos to calabar and then calabar to borne.Lastly, Lagos to Sokoto.Almost all states will be accessible easily unlike what we have now.Rufai use every opportunity to discourage investors from coming becos of selfish interest.If you truth to yourself, will they be compensated.The conversation should be to engage the minister on the people that may lose their jobs but not on making anti Nigeria comment.If you tired you can go to your chosen country and keep your reality to your pocket cos all ur action here and your personal space are bias and very subjective.I have always believed Nigeria will be great.
Can’t government build bridges around that area, in other to save such investments.
Minimum wage in Edo State is now N70,000 thanks to Governor Godwin Obaseki, may God Almighty Bless him richly🎉🎉🎉🎉💃💃💃💃💃💃Why can’t other State do the Same???
My question is, is it only Landmark business will be affected ? If not why is it only Landmark making loudest noise. According to what we heard couple communities will be wiped with their kings palaces pulled down. Are saying government left projects that will benefits millions of nigerians because of Landmark?
Can you and your entire family afford 200m dollars. Just keep quiet if you have nothing else to say.
Where you for hear palaces will be brought down?
Because Landmark Beach was the main target. Other demolitions are just sideshows.
Eloquently and well articulated
Exactly my thoughts
Only arise tv can't be fully convince of anything, the minister work was with you and u asked all the questions concerning the coastal road, still u are still asking questions, arise tv and politics
Pls don’t mind these Arise people, I’m beginning to see them as enemies of progress and enemies of Nigeria in disguise. They are always happy and make noise when things are going bad in the country.
Rufai & co pls hear this, whether it pleases you or not that road and other infrastructures will be built and Nigeria will be great again. What a shame to you sadists!
@@apostlekofipaul3258 joblessness is not good 😂😂😂😂😂😂
They are anti tinubu. They are licking Obi and the igbo's asses
@@apostlekofipaul3258 you keep writing the same thing on different comments. that shows either you are paid APC agent or you are APC bot.
Nigeria Government never encourages business they are destroyers of business that is why no serious foreign investor will venture to come to Nigeria. I live here in U S A where government supports private investments so Ruf is right. Any person dropping any comment against Ruf. Is doing it out of bias and selfishness. Maybe the road will pass through your regional coastal line. They question is how can this project help reduce hunger, poor education system, free fall of naira value and other pressing problems that are pressing the necks of Nigerians.
How does logistics issue cause nationwide scarcity? Which kine issue?
Why rush? If government didn't do it u will complain they doing it u complain...the question is they are going to compensate them then why complain? Rufai and arise u are wrong.
Really?
I am nominating Rufai for Senate
God bless you Rufai
For what?
I don't even know what is u people problem in this country.
Now lekki free trad zone has come to life the dream was conceived about 20years
Ruffai is so bitter. That guy needs an urgent psychology solution. He is in pain and needs help.
Really?Are you ok?
Your mumu too much with all due respect.
Landmark properties are not even affected. The fact that someone has bought a beach propwrty doesn't mean they also bought the waters. 250m from the coast belongs to all Nigerians. Why not give us your own cost estimates since you know everything. Why the blibdness to the fact that the road is now a 10-lane express with a railway in between versus the old 4 lane without a railway and why didn't any of the previous govt start it? I blame govt officials attending your yeye talk shows. The project goes on whether you like it or not.
Nigerians have no electricity, why not use that money to tackle the electricity challenges first, before doing the coastal road that will be washed away in the future because of the salty content of the coastal waters. The same way that the east-west road that was built in a hurry immidiately after the civil war at the back of Porthacourt down to Bayelsa and Warri through the salty muddy track roads eventually became a disaster that was never achieved. That east-west road was built in order to loot the oil and gas resources of the eastern region through the back door from the prying eyes of the Igbos, instead of using the Porthacourt-Enugu super-highway. They have come again and they are going to be put to shame again because of their greed.
And what exactly is controversial about the ROW?
Everything need process.
Rufai you don't like tinubu and Nigeria
Rufai and his analysis 😅😅😅 The project will go on. If you're not satisfy you can approach court. The project is necessary at this point. The rush is important.
You need help go see your doctor sorry it's not about Rufai it's about the stealing of Nigeria wealth
Really?A family man not able to feed his children but same man priority is decorating his sitting room.
Rufai is always speak out of sense or his enemy of Nigeria?
He's mr know it all
Keep on supporting lies and corruption.
The Minister was in arise tv and clearly explained the decisions,steps taken and yet we still complain hmm
Pls don’t mind these Arise people, I’m beginning to see them as enemies of progress and enemies of Nigeria in disguise. They are always happy and make noise when things are going bad in the country.
Rufai & co pls hear this, whether it pleases you or not that road and other infrastructures will be built and Nigeria will be great again. What a shame to you sadists!
No light, no refinery, Education and health care has collapsed, no employment, no water, food inflation, bad road@@apostlekofipaul3258
The minister is a fraudster.
@@apostlekofipaul3258 how much they paying you to come and type this n0nsense?
like you really believe this your comment.
The rush is to be able to share the national cake in time before it will be too late for them.is that what Nigerians need right now?
There is alot of politics going on with this road.
A win-win situation would have been better
Why spend so much sand filling a beach when there is an already existing road. Alot of people use that beach front to help cool off and keep there mind from being depressed.
On approaching Landmark Beach, the road veered right and off course to pass in front of Landmark Beach, and once it passed Landmark Beach, it veered back to the original path. The entire exercise was designed to kill Landmark Beach.
Thank you for your observation. Nigerians have no electricity, why not use that money to tackle the electricity challenges first, before doing the coastal road that will be washed away in the future because of the salty content of the coastal waters. The same way that the east-west road that was built in a hurry immidiately after the civil war at the back of Porthacourt down to Bayelsa and Warri through the salty muddy track roads eventually became a disaster that was never achieved. The east-west road was built in order to loot the oil and gas resources of the eastern region through the back door away from the prying eyes of the Igbos instead of using the Porthacourt-Enugu super-highway. They have come again. We are watching them.
In Europe we do have queued everyday in the petrol station. So, that is normal. Sometime.
Please which Europe do you have queues to buy fuel?? It’s a queue of 10 cars because many people just turned up at a time or scarcity?? That’s how you stay abroad enjoy all the facilities that you did not work hard for and come here and deceive people.
Please which Europe country?
God bless and guide the president of
Anytime it ready, we acept it. Tinubu will notcrepair refinary with his teeth. He Tinubu doing the righting for the country.
Landmark owner na "wayo" man. He bought the beach from one baale "local chief" Why didn't he buy it from Lagos state or federal government? I let you figure out the answer
Hum, is it because of landmark they changing the route.
The Oniru family have confirmed with documents that they did not sell the beach front to Landmark. Minister Umahi also confirmed that he had seen Landmark land documents and that Landmark did not buy the beach front.
Besides, 99% of the homes and businesses affected by the demolition exercise belong to the Yoruba people. If the indigenous people are not complaining, what right has Landmark to complain , not even when it has been confirmed that Landmark did not buy the beach front.
@@rotimikayode1072You guys have come again. Anyway, I blame those Igbo people that are investing heavily in Lagos.They will soon see pepper with their eyes. Wise Igbo people are investing in the south east, Ivory Coast, Angola, Mozambique, Europe, Canada, and America. Nigerians have no electricity, why not use that money to tackle the electricity challenges first, before doing the coastal road that will be washed away in the future because of the salty content of the coastal waters. The same way that the east-west road that was built in a hurry immidiately after the civil war at the back of Porthacourt down to Bayelsa and Warri through the salty muddy track roads eventually became a disaster that was never achieved. That east-west road was built in order to loot the oil and gas resources of the eastern region through the back door away from the prying eyes of the Igbos instead of using the Porthacourt-Enugu super-highway. They have come again. We shall see where this project is going and how it will succeed giving the bad environmental condition along the coast.
Landmark owner making false claims about the property worth $200 million and employing 20,000 na lie, let him post payroll showing 20,000 employee and investment receipts total $200 million liars everywhere
Great analysis from Rufai ❤
Arise TV should tone down their political sensationalizing of development matters.
It is natural for massive infrastructural development to involve the making of sacrifices on the part of some stakeholders
Pushing for the project to be abandoned is like agitating for us to continue with the recklessness of business as usual
No matter the political narratives you are seeking to paint about the Lagos Calabar coastal project you can never underestimate the benefits multipliers.
We can only pray for its timely completion so that the country can reap the sustainable development impacts
What is the rush to start this Lagos - Calabar Coastal Highway which is going to cause pain without proper EIA? If Federal Government cannot improve the lot of Nigerians, why cause Nigerians more economic hardship by destroying investments in valuable assets.
Why are we spending so much on 47km of new road when the roads are currently servicing the people are in terrible states. This Lagos - Calabar Coastal Highway is ill timed except that it stands to benefit our current President BAT.
Tinubu can't wait to resume tolling on the Lekki-Ekpe expressway, having been kicked out of his Lekki Toll Plaza. Moreover he now sees a chance to extend it across the entire economic nexus of southern Nigeria. Now you know why the hurry. Anyways he's not sure of second term.
The demolition of properties is not good but the people shouldn't build properties without due approvals the minister said inspite of the illegalities of the structure they are going to compensate the people affected. The media is to bring awareness to the people instead of supporting illegalities and raising alarms over issues. Please stick to the broadcasting ethics to inform, educate and entertain instead of getting emotional with public issues.
Bar beach formerly belonging to all now privatised...Landmark beach formerly available to the public now removed for a coastal road being built by the same Chagoury organisation. Why are we killing our own people my God!? Unbelievable!
I have always said it that Tinubu has no plans for Nigeria he will continue to run around the world begging for investors that will never come. Nigerians are ready very hungry to develop their country but when there are useless and stupid policies in place nothing will ever happen.
You call that massive work controversial? You guys at Arise TV are going to fade away with time, quote me.
Rufai is paid to criticize government omo ale oloriburuku
IF PEOPLE FOLLOW MASTER PLAN NO GOVERNMENT WILL DO NONSENSE AND IF THEY WANT, THEY WILL PAY COMPENSATION.
This TV station is actually anti Nigeria... Under mine the importance of the road and only focus on the pains.
Have they fixed all the dead roads in Nigeria most of the so called federal roads are completely dead. Those roads need repairs why embarking on massive projects that we know that it will not be completed in another ten years. Tinubu and his friend, who is the owner of the company handling the road project are the ones that will benefit more and not Nigerians.
@@mikeuzama2516don't mind them
Rufai by your dispositions are you not an enemy of state?
Go and hug step down and step up transformer 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Bipolar being
See who is talking .You are the real enemy of humanity.
Any topic can be argued for good or bad. It is painful Arise News always tries to play politics with issues that serve the ultimate good of the country. Do we need this coastal highway? Absofuckinglutely! Will necessary compensations be paid to all affected. HELL YES!!!
"Nigerians are the cause of suffering on Nigerians. ".. yet all you talk about government... never the suffering by Nigerians on Nigerians. Go an investigate these filling station that have fuel but refuse to sell.
Incidentally, I watched the interview of arise with Minister Umahi and I think Rufai should go and watch the clip. Two things stood out on Rufai’s discourse; 1. He said the minister said the contract was awarded to Hightech because they were the only one that could do the road. This is not true. The minister said the contract was awarded to Hightech because they were the only company that has shown competence in concrete workss that can be seen and verified to have been successful.
2. Rufai also said that the minister did not have the cost of the total road project. This is also false because the Minister said they have the total cost of the road project and he stated it. What he said was that they didn’t have the cost of the rail project and were still working on it but it is only the road they are considering now. They are only creating a corridor for the rail project for a future date.
I also do not understand his opposition to this project. Our country lacks a lot of critical infrastructure and anyone being built is a plus for the country.
The people that complain about the demolition of the area that needs to be demolished are critics we don't needs these types of people in BOLA Ahmed Tinubu's government can't the sees the infrastructure workforce development going on all over the country you guys that's criticing the government what's your contribution than criticism,most expeciall you these guy in Arise tv you don't like the president...Omo ale your a nie, can't you see over years these types development has not happened to Nigeria,the are spending money and we can see what's going on in the country.... please shout up your mouth.
Unfortunately Rufai does not make a cogent argument for his position.I would have preferred the road to be rerouted but i can understand why it wasn`t. Landmark have provided proof of concept but we need real beachfront resorts to drive tourism.
Fools everywhere!! And who says there are no free beaches in Lagos? Go there and see the huge amount of filth around free beaches. Landmark spent his money in cleaning up the place and putting up infrastructures yet u want it free?! Is Oniru beach? Or is Kuramo beach free?
To hell with Rufia,he must have something to say as opposition mouthpiece,he will never see anything good with the Tinubu government.
Tinubu is not doing well ,this is wickedness.
"Controversial demolition," really. You guys must be stupid with such a statement.
Nonsense investment cashing out from Nigerian paying so much to access landmark now you are on your own,take your beach to imo River.
Na only citizen dey make sacrifice, the government no dey make any sacrifice.You people are receiving allowance and salary every month,the citizens are receiving nothing.Yet you guys still the destroy their properties.
God punish you people for there.
This is white elephant project, tinubu want to use it inorder destroy landmark business in Lagos because of tribal issue.tanizania built electric railways that runs from ododoma to dar esm no noise like this appdated coastal road , countries are going degitial
Mr Rufai let government work, u are unnecessarily poisoning the minds of Nigerian against this project, the minister was with you and he explain very thing and only figure he could not give is the railway, allow them to build this country, Rufai when u are the president do your own project
You are really blind. Rufai is on point man.
@nnamdivalentine5935 You are the worst blind. Rufai is a nonentity. He knows nothing than uttering out rubbish from his mouth. It's shameful to hear this so-called robotic pastor Ayo talking at times. I wonder which church called this quack a pastor. You just use your tv station to say rubbish and behave ignorantly

This station is so bad in reporting. They are Peter obi sympathizers.
So lazy analysis, arm chair journalism.
The minister mentioned that the are doing many projected many of them inherited yet this lazy ayo is saying why not focus on abandoned projects.
Wike is reviving abandoned projects in Abuja.
Arise tv is blind to these but continue peddling anti government narrative, borderline incitement
Rufai speaking 🔊 for his pay master, even though he knows that the road project benefit outweighs the personal interest of those he's paid to protect.
Rufai stop confusing people about the lagos calabar ciastal highway. Rufai i put it to you that you are omo ale yoruba. Your shorttmsnism is your problem. The minister was there in your station to explain in details to you abd nigerians so why are you huys confusibg people
This guy thinks he's intelligent.
You lie
It's a shame Arise is trying to draw sympathy on this. Totally shameful IMO. Even calling out Lagos state govt. for allowing it saying it's affecting tourism: you mean the business of private beach owners?
Yes private beach owners paying taxes to Lagos government. Also creating employment to Lagos ppl. what part of it you don't understand or is it something else you hate about the businesses?
@@jamesngene3218 when the govt calls for use of the land it is respected all over the world. The govt must also be responsible to make requisite compensations. Or are you saying that if your land is on a crude oil field or a mineral mine the govt should start smiling with you? Let's have some sense please !!!
@@jamesngene3218 the entire scope and business opportunities this road will be to Nigeria including the states and people it will impacts outstretches by far the few businesses, tax proceeds and current jobs, etc being touted currently. Also if you go back in history which you may not be privy to, this coastal road was planned over 50 years ago. Let's stop being emotional for no concrete reason
Foolish rufai with smelling analysis.

Rufai and Ayo, the project is on, and your big yeye grammar can't stop the project. If the project costs 100 billion dollars and not naira, the project will be completed. After the project is completed, the Sokoto - Badagry Coastal Highway will start. Please go and visit China, and Japan will see how the governments use highway roads to connect the urban and rural areas. Yeye short-sighted people. The majority of Nigerians supported the project, and no sore losers stakeholders need to be convinced.
Japan and China are still battling with epileptic electricity supply, food insecurity, banditry, fuel scarcity, millions of out of school children, dilapidated federal roads, etc? With all the problems facing Nigerians, why is this the number one priority of this government? The simple answer is the financial interest of Tinubu and his Lebanese business partner.
