The Cross River State Governor has finally listened to protests and possibly council of his own aides and reversed part of the insane land mass he revoked for his superhhighway to nowhere. ie the infamous 10km on either side.
It is nowhere near enough.
It is nowhere near enough.
1. He should also commit to compensation for the destruction already done so the fight continues.
2. We do not understand how compensation will be given along a 70m width when 400m width remains revoked. Has the 400m width in the first publication been reversed? Will people outside of the 70m width not receive compensation? Clarification is urgently needed.

3. I will not speak on the route until the Fed Min of Env opinion on the EIA the state commissioned comes out. Needless to say an EIA which references animals found in India and China as suddenly being in Cross River Forests and has large copy and paste section referring to mines instead of a road inspires zero confidence that a review actually took place and communities were involved.
For those who wonder what this is about the Cross River Govt has always submitted that a road with of roughly 70m wide would be impacted in its EIA(environmental impact assessment submissions) while revoking the mysterious 400m plus 20km in public.
Now the 10km on either side is gone reverse the entire revocation until an EIA comes out.

In Morocco last year at COP16 Governor Ben Ayade said those who claim he revoked a 20.4km width for his superhighway were peddling "ungodly lies" from the pit of hell... Well now it seems they were not . Aluta continua. It ain't over 'til its over. :D
