365 roads are under construction in Nigeria.
244 of them were awarded in 2001 yet had stopped being active by 2015, due to lack of funds in an era of oil boom.
In contrast, the remaining 121 roads were awarded in the last three years in a period of oil glut and global hardship.
The first translates to 16 roads per annum in the period of plenty and the latter category represents an average of 40 roads per annum in a tough period.
The difference is crystal clear.
