The proposed Abuja-Lagos highway will be completed in four years, the Federal Government has assured.

Minister of Works David Umahi gave the assurance at a briefing on Saturday.

He said travelling from Lagos to Abuja will take four hours on the new highway.

He said the road will be built entirely with concrete, which is cheaper than asphalt.

They should use the western frontier to build it. That is the Badagry to Sokoto frontier. That way u avoid all the big cities on the way.

Abuja to Lagos, 4 hours? Lol
Exaggeration

2027 where you people would now hype it for reelection since tinubu doesn't seem to have anything tangible to show

Ok.

What has happened with fixing the current roads leading to Abuja from Lagos. The money to be spent constructing the new road could be used to fix Lagos- Ibadan-Ife-Owo-Okene to Abuja. The other end Lagos-Benin-Ekpoma-Iyamho-Auchi-Okene axis. All those roads need is proper supervision and management.

Tinubu just wan answer president nothing really dey to deliver aside playing politics.

Nothing how he is still president yet playing politics like opposition

Operation loot and pretend you have project to complete in 2027 reelection

Confirm ọmọ igbó atata!

More power to your elbow!

God bless Jagaban!

When was the proposed coastal road of the Niger Delta highway (East/West Road) supposed to have been completed again?

That's been in the works since the beginning of the current democratic dispensation, I assume.

I wish to be hopeful and give Umahi the benefit of the doubt. However, with the current state of our economy and an almost lack of a proper policy direction (both local and foreign), it is becoming almost impossible to be truly hopeful.

I think he should focus on getting the existing roads in the best conditions they can be first...

Hahahhaha scammmmmmm u who voted apc again, plz note ur age, have u done so? Now look at ur age put ur hand for chest n say ur name

Say (input name here) his/she's foolish

Nothing to see here guys.

David Umahi is my President in the near future. I know his Igbo brothers might not want to him because he's Apc, but watch us get him there without their help yet again.

This is Igbo mentality at work here, if they make an open declaration about what they intend to achieve they won't rest till they fulfill it because their people will use it against him and his children.
If only we as Nigeria can copy the good side of each ethnic nationality the country will be a great place

Long life Lord,
2027 sounds like tomorrow but some of us won't see it. Lord if it is your will let me live beyond 2027..Amen

Ehen?

Lagos to Abuja 4hours from over 20hours? Na here I de dey watch una for 6D o

Even the US with super highways will never say such a long distance journey will take 4 hours.

I think this istration is taking exaggeration and propaganda too far.

Ah, too far, i thought that it won't be less than a month

Believe this stupidity at your own peril.

All legacy projects in. Nigeria (from 3MB, to refineries, schools, Nigeria Railway etc were constructed by military juntas). While I don't advocate millitary rule, these democratic thieves are practically doing nothing despite the fact that they are not under sanctions and financial constraints.

Is it a coincidence that all the ministers making waves are from the South?

Multiply by 5 years again. Another lie from the stable of APC, he wants to outdo Fash the 0007. 4 hours through which route and at what expected speed limit.

How much do we pay to make it faster

Yes it's possible .. travelling @ 240km/hr.

if travel by Air is around 1 hour, then travel by road can be around 4 hours with latest technology to Shadow the nearest edge to locate the highway, haters will not like this

Hmmmm, how possible is this
Road safety recommends 120km per hr on highway private cars which is the highest, if all vehicles are traveling at that speed, it means one will cover 480km in 4hrs. So what's the distance between Lagos and Abuja??
