When the government wants to work, it will work
A government that can build this in 24 months can also build a 1004 complex of one and two-room apartments in Abuja, and destroy the high cost of rent and win elections
The same way the government used solar to power itself out of darkness, but left you in band A
Notice how corruption did not affect these projects
You, who are writing a draft to attack this post, tell me what the government has done for you personally

Portugal players are so lucky, they will all play rubbish and we will blame Ronaldo. Ronaldo is not Portugal’s problem, here’s Portugal’s real problem.
The FG’s luxury estate for Appeal Court judges is a reminder that elections are won at the polls, not in court.
Expecting those same judges to overturn the system that rewards them with this 👇🏽 is wishful thinking. 🤣😂
Gabriel Ogbechie, founder of Rainoil Ltd, explains the traffic gridlock along Apapa and Tin Can Island Ports in Lagos.
He says that people started investing in tank farms at Apapa due to the vandalization of underground pipelines.
And the traffic is not caused by the tank farms but seaport.
Because the entire country is relying on Tin Can and Apapa to import goods.
Nigerians sold their hard earned belongings, paid ransom, only for Nigerian army to come online and be claiming they rescued the victims. A security architecture running on billions have to resort to propaganda and lies to show their workings. This is a shameless national embarrassment.
"Tinubu said: '...why should I make laws that favour free and fair election, if you don't want to vote don't vote. Who say you must vote. You can sleep in your house that day. If only three people that vote for me, I win."
If you take a letter to INEC, they would call Villa. If they say don't collect they won't collect and if they ask them to collect they would collect because INEC is controlled from Aso Rock" - Prince Adeboyo
**If you are kidnapped in Nigeria, you are completely on your own. No security agency will save you.
"My nephew was kidnapped while I was SA to Vice President Shettima. I knocked on every door, entered every office, and gave them the exact coordinates of the location. They promised to help but couldn't. We spent ₦175 Million, including ransom, before he was released after 36 days in captivity. The security agencies couldn't help." - Dr. Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, brother to Datti Baba-Ahmed
Accountable Borrowing: The South Africa Example.
I have consistently maintained that borrowing, in itself, is not a bad thing. Every nation borrows. The critical issue is not the act of borrowing, but what the borrowed funds are used for and whether citizens can clearly see and measure the impact of such borrowing in their daily lives.
There is a lot to learn in the open and transparent manner in which South Africa handled its recently secured a $1 billion loan from the New Development Bank, with a clearly defined purpose. Publicly announcing the targeted purpose of the loan for all to know and monitor, upgrading water supply systems, modernising sanitation infrastructure, improving electricity distribution, and strengthening waste management services across eight major metropolitan cities, including Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban.
This is indeed what accountable borrowing should look like; the purpose is clear, the projects are identifiable, and the expected benefits to citizens are measurable. Such investments directly improve living conditions, enhance productivity, and stimulate economic growth.
In Nigeria, however, the opposite is the case: public debt has risen dramatically under the current administration, and its deployment is shrouded in secrecy from the people who will indeed pay back the loan. Today, our total public debt has increased from about ₦87 trillion in 2023 to nearly ₦200 trillion.
Yet, despite this unprecedented accumulation of debt, Nigerians are often left without a clear and detailed account of how these borrowings are being deployed to improve critical sectors such as education, healthcare, power, security, and infrastructure.
Borrowing must never become an end in itself. Every loan obtained in the name of the Nigerian people must be tied to specific, productive investments capable of generating economic value, creating jobs, reducing poverty, and improving the welfare of citizens.
Good governance demands transparency and accountability. The government must be able to clearly explain what was borrowed, where it was invested, and what measurable outcomes have been achieved. The ordinary Nigerian should be able to see and feel the benefits of every debt incurred on their behalf.
At a time when millions of Nigerians are struggling with rising costs of living, unemployment, insecurity, and declining purchasing power, fiscal discipline and prudent management of public resources are no longer optional; they are imperative.
Every borrowing decision should answer one simple question: How does this improve the life of the ordinary Nigerian? If that question cannot be convincingly answered, then we risk merely transferring today's burdens to future generations.

"Why should I give you any free and fair elections when I'm also a contestant? I was in the opposition and I suffered and bore it like that. Now, it's your turn - why should I help you when I have the majority (in the House)?"
