I detest exaggerations,
what is the distance and route?

Even, Lagos - ibadan with the smooth road is still well over 1hr.
460km, it's a new road entirely. The old road is 700km in length.

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

Aside media noise, mention two making waves

Okay, I'll wait until 2037 to remind the Federal Government of this specific pledge on the construction of the Abuja-Lagos road.

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.
Audioly completed

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.
That's the energy now.

Let me be a realist, I don't want to get hope worn out and toss away.

Only an idiotic politician won't make plans to hype things before election. Wike was still commissioning at Rivers ...he turned out well for his successor. Blue line helped Sanwo Olu a little bit too haha. That is politics and it is practiced like that everywhere




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

If you know, please share the newly proposed route.

nope, he's constructing a new road. 460km in length, I have read the comments on this thread, people don't care to know the details of the project hence their disbelief and skepticism. The existing road to Abuja from Lagos is about 700km, if he pulls this project off, Lagos to Abuja will take about 4-5 hours

Abuja to Lagos, 4 hours? Lol
Exaggeration

Na Abuja to Lagos be 4 hours? You funny die😂😂😂

newdawnlive:
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

This is not possible.
Lagos to Abuja is is over 700km
To achieve this in 4 hours means to travel on average, 180km/hr non-stop.
Does the law permits driving on this speed? NO.
So it's safe to be modest with 6 to 7 hours

As the crow flies distance which is a straight line between two points, puts Abuja to Lagos at 512km without curves.
If you understand Geography, just take a map and do this calculation out and you will see it's not achievable. The best that can be achieved will still be above 600km as there must be some meanders on the route. Considering that the law permits a speed limit, there cannot be any possiblity of achieving that in 4 hours

Do you know more than umahi who's an experienced Engineer? He has done his calculation on the new route and he says it's 460km in length but an unknown person on the internet who's is probably not an engineer and is not privy to the road plan says it's impossible?

A straight path from Abuja to Lagos geographically is 512km. With the curves, it can be more than that. No amount of engineering in the world will reduce that to 460km unless you carry Lagos to around Ogbomosho.
Umahi is an Engineer, no doubt but he is also a politician and that tells a lot.
Either the journalist are misquoting him or he playing politics
