Nope nothings ruined Nigeria has been gradually building all her wealth, infrastructure for awhile now. Even more like mega projects are being built like Eko(African Dubai), Centenary City, Imperial international Business City, Ayimba Economic City, Orange Island, and Greater Port Harcourt City. Other projects such as homes, buildings, hospitals, roads, dams, powerplants, and rails are being completed every year. Nigeria will be in the top 10 largest economies come 2050-60. Nigeria has one of the fastest growing middle classes in the developing world. GOD BLESS NIGERIA home to the richest and most influential African Man Aliko Dagote, and the most Independent, Wealthy, Progressive, Industrious, and cultured African People in the world. Nigeria's Rich are 99% native unlike the other African countries who's wealthy are primarily of foriegn origin. All Nigerian businesses are native owned and expansive all over Africa.

Lagos State government is not doing enough. Don't you know that Lagos is Richer than anambra, enugu and IMO combined? Lagos State is the 6th or 5th largest economy in the whole of Africa, that means Lagos State is Richer than over 48 countries in Africa.

[@prospektarty1513]

Lagos is the wealthiest state in Nigeria and accounts for one-third of Nigeria’s GDP when times are good and nearly 50% when things are bad for the country. It is Nigeria’s and West Africa’s economic and cultural power house with a huge domestic market and an economy the size of Ghana and Kenya combined or the 5th largest economy in Africa if it were a country. So Lagos can afford public-private sector infrastructural projects like this and the money will be recouped through toll payments. Sadly most other states either do not have the resource base for projects like or do not need such infrastructure because of their dispersed population. However the majority of Nigeria’s states are run by kangaroo governments with large pockets for their personal share of the national cake. No private sector consortium will invest in this type of project, in a state where the government cannot guarantee school teachers their monthly salaries let alone commit to building major infrastructural projects to benefit the people. People do not want to pay the right amount of taxes in Nigeria but what they don’t realise is that money for such infrastructure comes from the tax payers. Our oil money alone cannot pay for everything. In a country where only 10% of the working population pay taxes and 90% are daily wage earners there’s no hope for many states as they have to rely for handouts from the federal government allocation pot to fund their day to day administration and are unable to generate additional resources from other sources

Another Thiefnubu bridge that would levy all passers, and suddenly turn third mainland bridge into a death trap.

Do you think you are making any sense with this comment?

[@moteague]

80% of Nigerians live in poverty but they have money to build useless bridges. How about getting electricity, sewage, Internet, telecommunications and water to the people of Nigeria? Nigerians are going a good job taking care of the rich. Nigeria will implode within 20 years.

Very annoying way of talking, sorry, reading. Quite obvious he is reading from a prepared speech. It's a turn-off.

[@solutionsplug6624]

Nigerians na wao ooo, you go complain no shaaaa. Every speaker, actor, news caster name it, most have his/her script prepared. Enh, so it's wrong to prepare a script/speech or read from a prepared script. Even, Obama has scripts of his speeches prepared before delivery.

2.2 billion dollars for bridge?? How do we celebrate corruption so much. How much did they build the burj Khalifa? World class international airports around the world. Smh

$2.2b for a 38km bridge with many Interchanges is not expensive. China built the 55km Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau bridge with $20b.

[@racestreamer9062]

@@NedMedia So, we are in China? Do you know where Hong Kong and Macau is? Imagine the comparison? First of all, Hongkong and Macau are like 2 different independent nations linked together by the bridge. Secondly, the construction is not only the longest sea crossing bridge in the world, but it included FOUR artificial islands and an undersea tunnel. Not to talk of the technical difficulties faced that drove the cost up. So, don’t ever compare. Besides, I’m in the construction Industry, so, you’re not talking to a novice.

[@johnnyksar3228]

Cost does not include just construction alone - it also includes insurance cover and future maintenance adjusted to inflation over a period time the loan would be paid back. The actual construction of the bridge might probably just cost $500m max.

[@johnnyksar3228]

@@NedMedia China is like a continent so you are right $20b is not expensive, imagine if this bridge was to link all parts of Nigeria and then West Africa, it would probably cost at least $10b. People don't seem to understand that the same infracture you will see in Europe will cost more in Africa because of interest payment, maintenance cost, insurance cost, cost of expertise etc.

[@racestreamer9062]

@@johnnyksar3228 Then, you know nothing about how things work in Nigeria. We will see over the years. Things cost more in Nigeria because of selfish interest and corruption, and lack of accountability, not cos of those things you listed
