‘Is That The Right Priority?’ APC’s Lukman Questions Coastal Road Project

of the ruling All Progressives Congress Salihu Lukman has questioned the Lagos-Calabar coastal road project expected to gulp N15 trillion.Lukman believes the government should have channeled the money into more pressing issues like education among others and maintains that the APC has poorly managed some of its social investment programmes.

“Now we poorly manage it: the problem of corruption now under Asiwaju .

“Imagine you invest N15 trillion in equipping our armed forces and trying to recover all the ungoverned spaces in the country. Imagine you invest that in terms of providing classroom blocks and recruiting teachers.”According to him, with the number of out-of-school children in Nigeria increasing, the authorities should go beyond talking and start taking action.

“You know, now we talk about this statistic of 10 million out-of-school children but we do nothing,” the APC chieftain said on the current affairs show. “If, for instance, we are now going to mop up the state of some of these classes, you check online, you see certainly there is anything but class classroom.Advertisement
