I think dat op is high on expired tramadol soaked in regal dry gin for giving credit to fashola on lagos-ibadan expressway. I passed that road twice a week infact I just returned from Lagos less than 2hrs today. GEJ awarded the contract & the work was going smoothly until bubu destabilized everything which makes work stop. Though RCC is back to work for the construction but they now use equipment & man power lesser than what we see during GEJ days
A careful look at you comment reveals hate, bigotry and a speech inspired by election loss.

That road was awarded by obasanjo, handed over to yaradua and started by GEJ who abandoned it cos he probably looked the funds. I wonder why a comic character like you would heap blames on buhari who resurrected the projected. We all remember how Fashola was begging the contractors to resume work since GEJ made them to abandoned it.

Your last sentence reeks of insane attempt at laying blames. How can you say they now use "equipment and lesser man power" than what they used under GEJ? If so, how come they could achieve this much?

Let me educate you boy, OBJ awarded the contract to Bi-Courtney(owned by Wale Babalakin) but it turned to be scam. GEJ award the contract to RCC(Lagos - Ogun state) & Julius Berger(Ogun - Oyo) & nt through any fuccking inheritance. if you have evidence to prove me wrong, make una add d link.

Gej awarded the contract and used it as a campaign tool, so he didn't pay them fully. That's why the contractors left the site when he lost cos he saw no need to pay them anymore cos the project couldn't help him win SW.

Fashola had to beg them to return that this administration will pay whatever debt the last administration owed them.


While appreciating the challenges confronting the contractors, the minister said that with the budget approval, the ministry will not hesitate to offset the existing payments owed contractors as soon as disbursements and releases are made to enable them re-engage their staff and return fully to site.

Meanwhile, the contractors who were owed over N600 billion also promised to improve standard of roads, as well as provide road furniture including signage, kilometre milestones among others.

How much did gej pay the contractors for the so called project which you are terming 'GEJ project'?... did he pay up to 5% of the total project cost and what amount of the project was executed before he left?

You claimed that buhari came in and stalled the project, what sort of mind boggling ignorance is this. Can you kindly tell us how much GEJ budgeted for that road in 2015?... less than N18bn was budgeted by gej for the entire Works ministry for the entire nation in 2015, yet you jump in here to say it is buhari who stopped the project? just the same way some ignoramuses were jumping around deceiving gullible ones that buhari was the one that stopped 2nd Niger bridge project in 2015. Were the contractors going to work without pay, especially when they knew a dime wasn't budgeted for them for the 2015 fiscal year?

Bro, no offence but I think you are the one high on that substance which you mentioned above.

The Lagos-Ibadan Expressway has been caught up in two court cases in which an order has been made cancelling a financing agreement to fund contracts for Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) of the road awarded to Julius Berger Plc and Reynolds Construction Company (RCC) in 2013 at the cost of N167billion with a completion date of 2017.

All these "It is GEJ's project" children, your mentalities can be quite amusing. grin

So you knew all along that nobody pays for a contract once and you were making unnecessary pointless arguments that "It is GEJ's project"?.... irrespective of the fraction of the entire project sum provided by a regime, to you lads, it just has to be GEJ's personal property; even projects completed in 10 years after GEJ will still be termed GEJ's project. grin

Total project sum was estimated to be N167bn, GEJ provided N25bn in 2014 and promised to provide another N25bn in 2015 to continue the job. In 2015, the 25bn promised was never paid, it wasnt even budgeted at all as the entire Works ministry budget was less than N18bn. All funds in 2015 were transfered to the failed re-election bid. Without receiving pay, RCC and JB abandoned the site, construction workers lost their jobs and our ignoramuses jumped into conclusion claiming PMB has stalled the project.

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/02/lagos-ibadan-expresswayll-concenssioned-fg/

2016, Fashola begs the contractors to return to site and promised they would receive their pay once budget is passed. Need I remind you that N50bn was set aside for that project in 2016 budget and as soon as the budget was approved, the funds were instantly released with the contractors scrambling back to site.

But according to GEJ children, it is GEJ's project. If saying everything is GEJ's is what gives your heart peace, irrespective of whether he provided a dime or not, then who am I to take away your peace?... I would also join you in saying it is GEJ's project.
