Coastal Road: Landmark's Properties Were Not Destroyed, Shoreline Was Illegally Subletted - Umahi

- President Tinubu instructed that two factors must take prominence in the Lagos-Calabar Coastal road, the fear of God and a human face, and that is what we have done, in some cases, we have followed the gazetted route and in some cases, we have had to make hard decisions by realigning to the coastal line. Unlike Peter Obi while he was governor in Anambra, the Tinubu administration is showing mercy by paying compensation for structures illegally erected on the right of way for the coastal road

This is how a minister of works should sound .
Minister Umahi knows his job, kudos ❤❤❤
My former governor will always deliver. Very intelligent man.
This man has become the face of this administration
Some obidient dont like him because he is making the goverment to shine. They wish they are the one doing this project.
Mr. Dave is one of the best ministers so far
You are one of the best minister in Nigeria. Thanks for your efforts.
Engr Umahi what you did in this speech is to cut across all challenges with calmness and logic. "Fear of God and Human face" bravo bravo and bravo I say, that is an awesome statement. Continue to do your best and as you said continue with Fear of God and Human face. Bless you.
Umahi is far better than Peter OBI.
So, can he win Tinubu in Lagos?
Ok oooo we don hear you oooo
Minister of works, Engineer Dave Umahi, please continue your work. IGNORE politicians playing ethnic games.
Simply fix power and refineries first. These are the most obvious and significant problems plaguing Nigeria at the moment.
You can imagine all the roads he's mentioning. When he hasn't fixed simple refineries , imagine relating this project to fixing the naira
you know how to do it ? run for the office in 2027.
@@dareishola You're not making sense!
Power is in the hands of private sector now, not only a gov issue anymore.
Different issue with different people handling it
Landmark owner "wayo" man bought beach a public space for everybody from baale or "local chief" why didnt he go to Lagos state federal government? I will let you figure out why?
Gbam!! Obidients over to you.
Sometimes, I feel that Dave Umahi sings praises of the president more than any subject matter he is addressing. The president is a servant of Nigeria and not a king. He's using the commonwealth of the citizens to do Nigeria's work.
He is doing it childishly
Lol, it's really really biting and paining u, but e dey sweet us
He knows he has the best chance as president of eastern extra. He will fight dirty if Obi choose not to leave 😅😅😅
It's a good one thumbs for the Minister one who knows what's he's doing you know by their words
What exactly did Nigeria need? I don't understand anymore, the minister is doing his job as minister of work. he wants to bring a standard road network and people are complaining, what did we want in this country?
I don’t understand too ooo. I don’t even know why people are fighting for a private company. Landmark can take the government to court if there’s a case. Nigerians should not be the ones defending private companies. Landmark charge people to enter beach that’s own by Government
We want stable electricity supply, the money for this God forsaken coastal highway will go a long way to fix our power sector, if build a coastal highway and have epileptic electricity supply no investor will come, ode! Many federal roads are dilapidated but their special interest is on this road, your security is severely bad no investor will put his $1 in an unsecured environment, ewu 🐐 your educational system is as bad as anything you can think on yet your president is focusing on building a coastal highway, today fuel scarcity dey no single refinery is working yet building a coastal highway is more important, ignorant people shouldn't be at helm of the affairs.
@@EbukaMark-cu1bkIgbo unknown gunman your mind no go touch ground, go back to your country Israel 🇮🇱 you immigrant werey
The government critics have become mouth piece for Landmark as if that's the only private enterprise affected. The minister has said it repeatedly that Landmark property is not affected because government is not paying for shanties yet the tribal bigots refuse to stop their noise pollution.
Do u know how many roads that are not completed why are u talking as if u are blind
When Nigerians in diaspora or foreigners come for holidays in Nigeria /Lagos( they call it dirty December), one of the very important things these set of people enjoy is our beachfronts 🏝️ 🏖️ especially Landmark and it’s gives us pride as Nigerians that we have some tourists attraction sites like Mavis Beach and the likes in different countries. The resort landmark created is a pride for us as Nigerians just as dangote refinery is a pride. This is not politics though they have turned it into politics. We want to come with our foreign friends to Lagos and show them the beauty. I tell you this landmark has attracted much attention to Lagos (dirty December) in the past few years in Europe and America.
I vote this minister for future President if possible. Brave and strict
That's how you Nigerians use Igbos like Umahi only to dump them when it's election time.
Supported,the face of the East,not fake,slow poisons, sponsoring misrepresentations, and falsehood,is that how a credible opposition should operate?They don't have useful suggestions and sound ideas,but lies,and misrepresentations.The East nationalistic leaders does not need the vote of the east that can get them to Aso Rock!! The opposition are bad belle, they know that with the developments going on they will not have anything to campaign with in 2027,lies will not help them!
I support you
We are on the same page
Where's Mr. Rufai Oseni? Am proud of my senior in the profession of Civil Engineering. He can run figures, engineers are trained to work with facts not with politically motivated views.
How was the bidding done? Did the they follow the normal procedure in awarding contracts? They keep doing things the usual ways and expect change

UMAHI, DON'T GIVE ATTENTION TO THE ENEMY OF PROGRESS. CARRY ON WITH THE GOOD JOB. YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS AS GOVERNOR SHALL REMAINED A THREAT TO THEIR PRESIDENTIAL AMBITION BECAUSE YOURS ARE VISSIBLE WHILE THERE'S HAVE DISAPPEARED DUE TO CORRUPTION & FAKE LEGACY.
Hahahah AriseTV na one of them oooo and you are still saying that on AriseTV page lol
Ewu 🐐 are aware that Dave Umahi built an international airport that nobody is using today, online presidential spokesman, these guys are are busy wasting our scarce resources on a project that would never be completed in the next 30 years, but fish brain like you will come to social media and continue to song their praises, una go soon tire.
If I may ask u ,how about the uncompleted Federal road this road that will take 8yrs to finish. Why can't they finish the uncompleted once use ur brain.
Nigeria govt use that to eat money
Which achievements? I am from Ebonyi, achievements no be flyovers sir.
U sound like a clown
Well-done, Honourable minister Sir.
After your brother sent him to destroy the property belonging to the Igboman.
@longinusukenta Which property belonging to an Igboman did he destroy? You guys should stop this hate campaign against this administration. You know the truth but you still chose to come online to share lies.
With practically every sector in Nigeria falling below indices, why the necessity of this wasteful project? Stable electricity? No. Meaningful living wage? No. Oil/Food production? Little to none. So basically the country has nothing in the immediate works to provide economic boost that will offset (even if partially) the cost of major projects such as this. This coastal highway that will supposedly open up commercialization will cost upwards of N15t and at take least 8 years to complete, so expect a minimum of 10 years (optimistically) before the realization of any benefits (assuming all other factors hold). It is simply inconducive to embark on a project this massive when we're plagued by so many other factors that have left the economy in the doldrums.
Moreso, a coastal highway does not mean it must be built literally on the coast. I'm not a civil engineer, but I do know any structure you build on a coastal area will require the use of much more material and will be more labor intensive just to combat the effects of the ocean and rising sea levels furthermore adding to the overall cost.
Igbo man, you go explain tire ooo. The road must go on
@@dennisemmanuel3131
That you've boiled down what you read to tribe says more about you than me. But continue.
@@dennisemmanuel3131 Igbo man will benefit most. Most of them live in Lagos and the coastal road will take them to the village for Christmas 😀😃😄
You and who ever you are working for knows that this government will gain more popularity when they manage to do the road to calaba before the next election. That is why Peter Obi is screaming that the government should not do it. Someone is determined to give you a brand new car with more features, but you said he should repair your old car. Is that not madness ?
@@dareishola
Keep talking out the side of your mouth. If you can't manage to do the small projects all around you, what makes you think that you can fulfill a mega one? Talk less from a company that doesn't even have one to boast of on their resume?
Did you see the video of the trailer that toppled over crossing deep water on what is supposed to be the Benin-Auchi express way? Now tell me if it's nothing short of insanity to abandon our currently dilapidated roads/federal highways to go and look for a new coastal road which mind you will be a toll road once completed? You know the economics does not balance no matter which way you cut it, but we're always looking for that golden goose.
Any way Umahi is the only minister that is working in the country that’s the fact other ones are there routing
God bless and guide the president of Nigeria
Amen
Amen
Congratulations Mr President and your team in making Nigeria go forward. Happy workers day to Nigerian workers. Bye Osuji josephat nwabueze Belgium 🇧🇪
Did you say go forward,Nigeria is not moving forward, there’s killings everyday, fuel scarcity, free fall of the naira and high inflation.your stupidity won’t let you see that.that’s why you left your fathers land and run to Belgium in search of what to eat.how many Dutch people left their homes to come to Nigeria for jobs.
How could President Tinubu have inherited a bad economy? When Governor Umahi had this to say about President Buhari in 2022, “In terms of naming all the indices that are needed now to improve on what Mr President has done because whether you like it or not, this President has done very well. If it is in infrastructure, security, economy, uniting Nigerians, I think God has helped him to do very well in each and every one of them,” he said during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.” How can we believe what anything he says?
He is praise singer no 1 na
Hypocrite !!!
Reference to Peter Obi shows this is clearly a vengeful mission for Tinubu. Perhaps the owner of landmark supported the Obidient move one way or another. It is a real shame that the federal government is prioritising "payback"/"vengeance" rather than being concerned for its citizens and improving their lives in the immediate.
I’m not here to play any politics or like anybody. You guys are doing well with this road network you are doing 👏👏👏
This government is doing a lot without complaining about lack of funds so far.
The hatred they have for the current President will always blind them to see how important this project is for overall interest Nigeria economy and southern part.Umahi is not talking about Indonesia and Singapore theory 101😂if you know u know.
HONOURABLE MINISTER DAVID UMAHI, is an intelligent entrepreneur ( engineer ), likely to be the next FIRST IGBO PRESIDENT IN NIGERIA.
You need to follow his process and documentary, he is very spiritual and deeply rooted in the political process.
For him to have secured the appointment, fixed the third mainland bridge, and about to install CCTV 's, around the bridge, with a response centre.
The LAGOS to CALABAR HIGHWAY is already gone 🇳🇬 😁
Has the East/ west road been completed? Are all the other FG roads in good order? Do we have any world class hospitals or schools?
The online vuvuzelas are here in force screaming support but mark it down this project will not be completed and if it is completed it will be a total white elephant project.
Go to fm of work to list the roads under bad condition, they will welcome you and listen to your report
Peter Obi MUST respond to this. We won't accept silence.
He is a fooooooooool! who is a snake and a con artist and has nothing to offer.
Obi is a noise maker
He should go and continue buying and selling.
Oga stand down He has responded so what is right people are suffering you are spending trillions in a road that will not be completed .. who is fooling who
@@DFADA21your father is the real noise maker, this project will be like Dave Umahi international airport in Ebonyi state that nobody is using, na so we warned you guys in 2015 about Buhari una no gree carry noise full everywhere, thank God today tinubu and some of his ministers are criticizing Buhari, this project is gonna be a CAPITAL FAILURE.
@@EbukaMark-cu1bk 😁😁 nwa bingo
Senseless set of people
OBI is a failure and can't never in this life get to the level of Umahi,
That's a painful truth!
Mack today's date he can't never be president of the federal republic of Nigeria. Ewu like you!!
If ur not stupid u wouldn't have talked about airport that's an investment for the future use.
APC desperately looking for their conduit to Syphon fund against 2011.....it's a great shame to David Umahi an astute engineer of great repute should condescend to this level ..go to ekpoma -Benin road ,sapele -Agbor road ..sapele -Benin road..... Enugu -benue road
Peter Obi see your life😂😂😂
The man is just a noisemaker
Obi is a bitter man and ungrateful loser.
Peter Obi was mentioned more than 20 times in the briefing😂😂😂
So? He is a politician and an opposition he must receive jab everytime he badmouth the government...if one day he becomes president( very unlikely) he will receive same treament from opposition except u are expecting him to be a dictator (also very unlikely cos he will not be president of Nigeria.)
May you not live to enjoy the new Nigeria
I like Mr. Dave
For the future president I agree, he has demonstrated the capacity
This does not make much sense. Where is the train line that is supposed to follow the coastal road? The realigned section where the road was split does not appear to have space designated for trains...smh
The only thing you are good at is to complain. Are you civil engineer ? are you the minister of works ? Do you know more than the contarctor ?
What a good spich by the Honorable Minister of Works, i personaly give glory to Almighty God that the take up of this costal road come to been in my life time after many years of promise and fail in the past goverments PBAT we thanks you for your corrage
Corrupt thieves like Emilokan will go for useless projects that boast trillions of Naira, so that they will steal more and more. Unfinished federal roads are scattered all over Nigeria that need attention but they are left laying waste. Useless Umahi will be used and dumped like the way Buhari used Amaechi to construct useless rail way to Niger.
Your video was incredible! Your passion shines through brilliantly. Keep up the fantastic work!"
Projects is where u make ur money as politicians. The people is the reason why u r in govt
Oh, great, so it seems like the entire press conference was just a thrilling episode of "Responding to Peter Obi"! Who needs substance or coherence when you can just react to someone else's opinions? And wow, the timing of this Lagos to Calabar coastal road project is just impeccable - I mean, who wouldn't want to embark on a massive infrastructure project during a period of economic downturn? It's not like there are more pressing issues to address or anything. Logic and reason are so overrated, let's just wing it and hope for the best!
Well done, Honourable Minister

@@Pastordanci it's wrong to want everyone to think the same way ... Landmark and Government should work together for the benefit of all. I know very well that Landmark has several highly successful estates in Lagos... you can't have that level of success without partnering with government... the same level of collaboration should be applied here... in any event, the Eko Atlantic City Phase 2, would have still sandfilled that place... please note that by the Land Use Act ownership of Land belongs to government...no single entity owns the beachfront...
@@tundeakinbobola101 You do realise this project like many others in Nigeria will never probably be completed. 1.6miles per month @700miles means this will take approximately 37years to complete.

Leave Peter Obi alone and do your work Hon Minister. I don’t know why people don’t like constructive criticism. You are not from Anambra State and cannot validly say that Peter Obi’s roads were washed off by flood. It is not true. Those were Prof Soludo’s roads. Peter Obi was Governor of Anambra State more than 9 years ago. You are presumably rehabilitating deplorable roads done by past federal governments and most of those dilapidated roads happen to be in the neglected South East. Majority of those bad federal roads are still there and begging for rehabilitation. I must commend you for being the best performing Minister under President Tinubu. We are very proud of you. Don’t crucify Peter Obi. We are very proud of those of you who are performing in office. You are showing the world the true stock of the Igbo man. Bravo Hon. Minister Dave Umahi.
roads tinubu did are still in good in lagos
The same Umahi said that buhari was the best president 2022 when he invited buhari in Ebonyi state, now buhari is a bad man and tinibu is the hardworking Man, hahahaha 🤣😂🤣, the truth is he Umahi is doing well as a an Engineer and i must say he's a good Man..but praising tinibu now is wrong.. because we all know that he's a bad man
Mr Man Listen with your mind and understand what Minister is saying...dont just open mouth and talk cho
Don't believe these people until we see the outcome
Can Nigeria maintain a coastal road close to Atlantic Ocean, when Nigeria can not maintain road on dry land.
Due to Ocean Beach shore wash that will affect land reclamation, the maintenance cost will be more than construction cost .
Secondly what Nigeria urgently need now is energy (power supply) so that manufacturers can start constructing industries /invest in Nigeria. Steady Power Supply (energy) will attract foreign investors, which will inject dollars into Nigeria economy.
APC and PDP can not make a simple statement without mentioning Peter Obi. There is something great about this man Peter. How can everyone attack only one man. Governance is more than propaganda, reset the economy, stop praise singing a non performing President.
That is why it isconcrete
This is how he praised Buhari and everything Buhari did . Now he is saying he inherited a bad economy.
Umahi is never Consistent.
Him attacking Peter Obi is further Burying himself in Igbo land.
In your empty head, Buhari is still the President. Learn to love your country over and above politics.

I tell you, mark my word,, David Umahi is the next igbo Nigeria president not Peter obi.
I think it is high time Ebonyi people should warn Umahi to stop playing dirty and selfish politics it is affecting the relationship between Ebonyi state and other states in the southeast . He used Buhari to fight Obi and other southeast governors and ndi lgbo as whole as a governor now he is using Tinubu to fight Obi and to extension southeast. Recently he went to the extent of saying that Ebonyi people doesn’t belong to Ohaneze ndi lgbo just to please his political slave master Buhari because Ohaneze didn’t support Buhari and Tinubu. Peter Obi didn’t call his name or anyone’s name in his tweet over coastal road but he is here calling his name. Why l said Ebonyi people should warn him is because his utterances are one of the reasons investors from southeast are not investing in his state.
@johnsonokono8, this is not Igbo matter or I Igbo issue, this is Nigeria. It’s all about building a one Nigeria. Projecting Idigbo over Nigerians as a people will take you no where.
POLITICIANS! GUYMEN! I KNOW THAT NIGERIANS WITH THEIR DOCILITY WILL BELIEVE THESE CRIMINALS. OH! NIGERIANS KEEP PRAYING...PRAYERFUL PEOPLE!
Dont kill the beaches....they are good for tourism. Did the Senate approve the new design?
Which senate Pls, beach has already gone but the landmark business not touched 😊
Umahi brilliant man , everything should not be in Lagos i our prayers should let them finish the good work thier start , that's if is going to benefit people of Nigeria we need change and is now not tomorrow because you don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. Another thing is buhari the formal president should come out tell Nigerian how spend our money.
Why not commence the construction of the coastal road from an alternative starting point, thereby affording Landmark the opportunity to gradually relocate its business? This coastal road project, rather than bringing joy, is causing distress. We have numerous other thoroughfares requiring repair and attention.
I like the way umahi has handled peter obi.😂😂😂😂
How did he handled PO. He just made a mockery of himself. He should have focused on his work. He was a former governor and PO was a former governor, go and compare both on the indices of governance and know who is better. No be to talk na to work oooo

Rufai is all over X misinforming people about this, including his principal, Peter obi. God bless you our minister for always coming out to inform Nigerians on this project.
Observing the calamitous destruction of a monumental investment such as Landmark Beach is profoundly disheartening. A staggering $200 million venture, coupled with annual tax contributions amounting to N2 billion to the coffers of the Lagos State government, now lies decimated, evoking a profound sense of pathos. My heart bleeds for Nigeria, particularly amidst a backdrop of pervasive unemployment, widespread hunger, and the exodus of potential investors from our shores. Reflecting upon my erstwhile support of the JAGABAN administration, I am engulfed by profound sorrow, singularly encapsulated by this lamentable event.
Nigeria should focus on projects that will attract foreign investors so that unemployment and inflation rate will drop. We need.uninterrupted power and water supply, human capital, and security to attract investors. Wasting trillions of naira for projects the minister admitted will take more than 8 years to complete reminds me of the Ajaokuta steel project. Nigerians are wise enough to ask hard questions that doesn't sit well with the minister. We are not buying your snake oil anymore.
While I have reservations on the destruction of property in furtherance of building the coastal road, I nonetheless commend the Federal Government for extending financial compensation to settle the victims. It's time to move on. Live and learn.
Umahi, Start Calabar side of the road. Everything cannot be in Lagos. Hope this does not become a white elephant project where the South South side is abandoned
He explained this in his last meeting with Arise.
There is a reason it was named Lagos - Calabar. At every project there is a point 0-either 100. Which implies Lagos is the point 0. You cannot go to point 100 to kick start.
And moreover the project was not named by this present government...
@@topebalogun5091 A project of this magnitude ought to be awarded in multiple sections across the different areas. His sole focus on the Lagos side of the road leaves a lot to be asked.
How do you make back the money to continue the project? What’s the population of Calabar Vs Lagos? Lagos will generate more money from the toll gates to continue and make the project sustainable!
its caslled (Lagos/calabar coastal road) not calabar /Lagos road
@@tayolaborn7866 Think for a minute. Why destroy properties worth billions of naira in Lagos, when you can actually start the work from Calabar with less things to destroy whilst giving the assets in Lagos more time to keep generating money for the government through tax, etc. and creating employment until the road finally gets to end Lagos before destroying those asset?

As we need infrastructural development in Nigeria, we also need human development too and the importance of recreational facilities cannot be over emphasized in that area.
The destruction of Landmark Beach Front is a personal blow to me, but I wish that the Tinubu government will encourage Landmark to stay in business and also encourage other entrepreneurs to take advantage of our coastal natures and create more recreational pleasures along our coastal beaches.
Tinubu people should remember that whatever belongs to the Federal Government of Nigeria belongs to the Nigerian people. We hope that they are not blocking access to our beaches with the so called coastal road.
Governor Umahi, we hope that the Tinubu government is not drifting towards Buhari regime. A situation whereby anyone who criticized him become an enemy of Nigeria.
We all witnessed what you did in Ebonyi state. Building flyovers when you could not pay minimum salaries to workers and no traffic congestions. Building Airport when you have Owerri and Enugu Airport closer and anyone who criticized you may not see the future.

Something is not adding up here. Those narcissistic criminals called Nigerian politicians should stop blaming what they found on the ground. You told Nigerians that you are up to the task, please do the job that you campaigned for and stop complaining or making life unbearable for the citizens. Nigerians are not fools
If this man come out to be president and you vote him , you will suffer times two. Because Peter Obi said fix other roads rather starting a new one that's why you have to label him an ethnically. The road he is speaking is the ten lane onitsha Anambra entrance road. People built structures on the road and he gave them half a year to evacuate, he didn't say that but had to spew rubbish from what he doesn't know, just to score cheap points. Why are you building roads where the old and existing ones aren't even functional. No bidding no due process, you just gave out the contract to chaoguri. You guys are crazy
Tell us any road in your state that abandoned?
Why was the job not bidded for by other construction companies.
You're just doing a road to Tinubus Lekki deep seaport and that road will never get Calabar. The compensation will be paid to.Lagos people and this shameless man will not even have the opportunity to pay compensation to.any south east or south south person during his term...watch out.

It happens all the times including my my country, Ghana. I am not an etnic jingoist: l am not drumming for an ethnic war, my friend. Just stating facts.
@@Frank-Bediko62 they only lost the beach which they didn’t own . They still have all their land and properties. The whole thing has been blown beyond proportion . You mean a country of 200 million people should abandon a 700 km road because of one man ?
@@uri-uf5hdand this is the best project to prioritise now in the midst of the hardship of Nigerians? That aside, with the strong message they are sending to investors (not just one way) through this unreasonable act, who would come to invest in Nigeria after their coastal road is complete (if ever). Only God can deliver Nigeria from leaders that have all lost the plot!!
@Frank-Bediko62 do you really believes he invested 200$million ?😅😅😅😅. If so I can sell sand to you inside desert 😂
Dr umahi thank God for Internet that we are able to know the truth of what is happening in Nigeria. Tell Mr president that I said big congratulations to him and his team. Osuji josephat nwabueze Belgium 🇧🇪 Belgium 🇧🇪
Obviously it’s a different government and same party, don’t get it twisted.
Did Yaradua/Goodluck government continues the Obasanjo government projects? Even though they are from the same Almighty PDP.
Same party deferent government. See how some people are defending the indefensible. David Umahi was a governor in the Buhari government and he never condemned the government of Buhari from which he is now claiming the president government inherited bad economy rather than he praised Buhari government as the best. So did Tinubu who was the national father of APC . He never saw anything wrong in Buhari administration because of selfish interest. Umahi we know you as a selfish politician so because little portion of the road is passing through your state you think that priority should be given to 2 trillion costal road than solving the problem of the hunger, poor economy, poor salaries, lack of fund for education and other urgent national problems like insecurity. You are praising Tinubu government now not minding the reality on the ground, tomorrow you will tell us you inherited poor economy from Tinubu.
@@johnsonokono886 in your rigth sense, u expect umahi to leave his governor post and be telling you PMB administration is a failure"? is that how u were trained? so bcs he didnt leave his office work and b telling u pmb has failed, then 2day hes not eligible to talk!! see ur thinking level.
@@kamaldeenaolatunji7282upon all these happenings in this government una still never learn any lesson because of tribal affiliation, this administration has virtually failed in all areas but still you refuse to see clearly, nawa for una, very soon this project go enter story, mark my word.
@@johnsonokono886When they say he inherited a bad government you must include all previous ones including the PDPs’ who were there for 16 years! I don’t know how old you are but did you think we were living in heaven during the PDP term?
Well said Hon. Minister keep up the good work.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Always doing the hatchet job!
Can someone please educate me on the importance of this road to our development? There are vital important roads that impact on our economic development that are currently dilapidated and have become death traps to humans and vehicular traffic eg the Ibadan/Akure Road, a vital link road to the FCT and the northern axis.
Coastal road is needed for bigger investment to come
U can praise urselves as much as u want i mean leadership but de real workers u h e left to die in suffering how much wage increase hve they been given i am hearing 25percent but national assembly salaries was reviewed upwards by 110percent
I am suspecting or I might be wrong,Tinubu might be propping Umahi for President in 2031.This guy called Umahi is the face of this administration.He is brilliant.
You are draming. there is nobody in Yoruba land that he will support than an Igbo man.
@@uchejoseph2344 You will be surprised,Umahi need only SE SW SS and some few state in middle belt and Umahi will be President.Umahi is handling most sensitive ministry and project in this government.
@@adewaleadekanmi9670 We will never support him, he can become president with SW and North votes, we wouldn't support him,
@@uchejoseph2344 Umahi is more popular than Peter Obi.Umahi is a nationalist while Obi is ethnic warlords and champion.We in SW will support Umahi 100%.With Tinubu influence SS and NE will back him and I can assure you that when the chips are down and SE realize that their son might be President they will back him to succeed.
@@adewaleadekanmi9670 Really he is more popular to you the Yorubas and the Hausas, we will never support him even if he come out, he never supported Obi. Obi is more popular to Umahi in East and in the South, if both of them come out for election in South and East, no body will vote for Umahi.
You remember the hypocritical statement he made sometime ago that Ebonyi state is Biafra, we would remind him when the time comes.
Why dont they use that money to build a nmodern train from lagos to the East. That makes more econimical sense. And if I may ask how many people live along that axis that will be plying that road everday, how many traffic will it generate. I dont know how many lagosians who work in those coastal cities and vice versa. As far as am concerned this is a misplaced priority, why dont they use that money to develop a robust river transport using modern ferries along these coastal cities instead.
That is where you are getting it wrong. Companies and businesses will start springing up along the coastal road because of access to their destinations quickly instead of looking for land in Lagos and Ogun state to establish.That is how to open economy. Also Badagry to Sokoto coastal road will open up the other side of the country...
One of the goals of the project is to discongest Lagos through the expansion and improvements on other modes of transportation such as road and rails systems.
@@Tolue42companies will start springing up abi? Companies wey dey comot leave Naija😅😅😅 fish brain, una never get stable electricity to power the industries, they carry money dey suppose invest in the power sector dem dey use am build coastal road wey dem no go finish in the next 30 years, una mumu never do?
@@EbukaMark-cu1bkLet them leave.Most of them are leaving because they are loosing their market share of the Nigerian economy and cannot cope with local competition. Believe me they won't be missed. Indigenous companies are giving them a run for their money.Alot of Nigerians are going into serious manufacturing now.
So does this mean thst the landmark beach will still exists?
The landmark structures were never going to be destroyed. It's the beach that has been taken from them and without the beach, they know their business will be affected, that's why they are crying out.
Beach isn’t belong to landmark
@@tayetiamiyu6627 who owns the beach?
Asiwaju is waaaay more intelligent person than peter oji anyday anytime. The envy of peter obi wouldnt even stop the construction of the coastal project neither will it stop asiwaju from from taking nigeria to the promised land. Anybody when wan die make e die.
You want to go to promise land with tinubu?de play😂😂😂😂
I no say you no get sense at all, fuel subsidy gone! All of una enter social media come dey defend am😅😅😅 today everyone is suffering it, if Mr Peter Obi has hundreds of SUVs he can fill up their tanks no shaking, people wey no get business and economic sense dey teach people wey be experts, we all go see how it will end, but for sure this coastal road is dead on arrival, if you bet am I go chop your money😅😅😅 it will end in story like Buhari government, which tinubu who brought him regretted.😅😅😅😅😅
to show sympathy for our people who voted for mr president we will do anything possible to pay a human face compassionate , what about those who didn't vote for the present administration 😢😢
You can go to hell. Go to ipob and collect your reward.
For those of you that know much about this road, what’s the essence? There has to be one, right?
Power and refinery first is more important than anything
SPV?
Every single project lagos is doing today was birthed by asiwaju. Eko atlantic, the metro, deep seaport, the new lekki internarional airport, coastal road etc. name it. And these things have been successfully executed because he plants his boys as governors and they follow the master plan he has drawn for lagos and that is the man you want to compare to peter obingo and atiku. People keep wonderong why lagos state is developing much faster than other states, incase you don't know, asiwaju is the man behind it. May God continue to bless you Asiwaju, strengthen you and keep you in good health, protect you and continue to give you the wisdom to drive this country forward.
Costal road was birthed by GEJ Government Not Tinubu. The first design was back of Landmark. Even your minister of works said it on Tv that it was GEJ that birth it.
You be real mumu
Coastal road was there many years before Tinubu.
Yet Lagos State minimum wage was less than Edo state back den, Lagos State still unable to pay pensioners and retirees, so what's the essence of all the achievement when it does have impact on the masses
Eko Atlantic Lol😂😂
Let’s take note the people that are saving the face of this Govt. Where they come from.
This is best Minister we have in Nigeria. If he comes out for Presidency I would vote for him.
I will also support him but Ndigbo won't want him because they never wanted him to be a Minister because he is not from Imo, Anambra or Ábíá. Umahi is from Eboyin state, the marginalized Igbo...
Minister Umahi , how much multi billions of Naira and dollars; has APC’s rail projects under Buhari, brought to Nigeria Economy ? Remember, he did the rails into Niger Republic !
You have started same under APC /Tinubu.
Which money are people, able to save , to benefit from this road ? Which security have you people provided in Nigeria; to make travelling along this road safe , for the tourists/ tourism, you are touting ?
Umahi is a deceiver and a bad politician !
WE COMMEND THESE GREAT PROJECTS.
BUT HOPE YOU ARE NOT GOING TO TOTALLY EMPTY NIGERIA TREASURY AND DRAG THE COUNTRY INTO DEPT THAT NEXT THREE DECADES WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SETTLE
