Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway Will Take Development Closer To The People – Tinubu

The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu has come out to say that the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway will give 30 million people improved access to production and marketing centres.

He recently revealed this during the flag-off of the 700km Lagos-Calabar highway project and several others to commemorate his first year in office.

According to him, the road will provide direct employment for thousands of people, and indirect employment for tens of thousands of politicians and many more.

Tinubu added that it will also fast-track the community’s development and take growth closer to the people.

His words, “On the next 10 benefits of the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway; during the period of construction, the road will provide direct employment for thousands of people, and indirect employment for tens of thousands of politicians and more. Economic opportunity for millions is being opened.

It will fast-track the community’s development, It will bring development closer to the people, and give 30 million people improved access to production and marketing centres. You can easily predict a journey, vertically and go along the horizontal line and do the definition of free movement of people.

I further crave the understanding of the general public, especially those whose properties and sources of livelihood will be impacted by this iconic project. We all make some sacrifices to enable our country to grow.

However, be rest assured that this government is a compassionate government that cares for you and will do the utmost to offer succour, by way of compensation.”

WOW.
