By EgbemaVoice, The Minister of Works, David Umahi, clarified that the Lagos-Calabar coastal highway will be constructed by the government for N4bn per kilometer, not the N8bn per km as claimed by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar. This means that the entire project will be finished with a cost of N2.8 trillion. He said, “People are just building castles without knowledge and they don’t know figures, I will run the figures for you. We are going to compare the cross-section of the one the former vice president mentioned that was renegotiated for $11.1bn for 700 km. So you have to now ask what was there to be constructed. And what was there to be constructed is the only available design from NDDC. They had designed the entire 700 km but we are not following exactly that pattern or right of way. We have a different modification. The original design had two carriageways on each side of the road with four lanes. “And in the middle, they did not provide for the train track. It’s just goin

STOP RUNNING WITHOUT REASON In 1994, an 87 year old man passed on in a village close to Amai, Kwale, Delta State. The late man's grand son, Ubaka (26 years old and fairly educated), was given some money and asked to travel to Agbor to buy a fine casket for his grand pa's burial.  Ubaka left base early and arrived Agbor in good time to purchase the casket and make the return journey same day. He was fortunate to get an open back white coloured Peugeot 404 pickup heading for Amai.  He, however, had to ride in the back of the pickup with the casket because two market women travelling to Amai were already seated in front with the driver. On their journey, they ran into a heavy rain storm close to Uronigbe and Ubaka quickly opened the casket, "laid himself nicely in the well padded interior," covered the lid and used the folded newspaper he had with him to leave a small opening between the lid and the main body of the white casket to ensure adequate ventilation.
