Locomotives are very expensive, durable and one of the fastest trains ever built by man. berem: |

But why is this a big deal? Is this the first time that something is named after the wife of a President? Or don't you know that locomotive trains are still used to haul goods in some areas even in the developing world? So kini big deal? 1 Like |

ACHIEVERBA: They should hang a sign on that train saying "ENTER HER AT YOUR OWN RISK" . But seriously i dont think the life left in that train is more than 5yrs. Its Scrap even as it is. Look at the rust on those wheels. These people travel out to a countries worldwide and see the trains in those countries yet they went for trains other nations have sent to the junk yard and make noise about it in the name of transformation. Even Singapore which we were 10 times better than in times past cannot have this on their MRT. Even Indonesia has upgraded to Super express train and the funny thing is that this train Nigeria is celebrating now was once indonesias kind of train assembly but they upgraded in 2012 to Super express trains. I have attached the pictures for sake of comparison.

legendsilver: You are way too good, kind and intelligent for this comment you posted. I want to believe that you know some persons have been pulled out of the unemployment market and the thousands of indirect employment created just because of this act of the govt. Calling for a total trashing of this sector is just saying these sets of persons don't deserve a better life. |

As said by Doyin Okupe, "Nigeria cannot afford brand new trains, hence the reason why there are 2nd hand trains all over the place"... not surprise about the train name. |

feedthenation: I want you to pause for a second and consider how absolutely stupendously ludicrous and clueless this administration is. They want to discourage the average citizen from importing used (tokunbo) vehicles into Nigeria by raising the import duties right? Yet they went ahead and imported so called tokunbo trains from outside the country. A country as big and as rich as Nigeria cannot afford brand new trains? That is the joke of the century. How much does a train cost? A friend of mine in the USA who is well versed in that said about $15m for a modern 6 carriage train. So we cannot afford that? These trains Jonathan is making noise about are not tokunbo but refurbished (There is a difference). So doyin Okupe has suddenly become the accountant general of Nigeria? Shameful! 1 Like |

ayusco85:I'm not pained. Why should I be? I corrected your stupidity. You wanted to make a joke of the First Lady but ended up ridiculing yourself. You are the one foaming in the mouth that's why you couldn't help but resort to insults. By the way, post the PICTURE OF YOUR MOTHER let's compare her with PEJ. If you insult My President and/or the First Lady without uploading the pictures of your biological father and mother then I will be left to assume you are either not proud of them or they are truly not presentable in ALL sense. |

The president/head of state that constructed those locomotive tracks was married then and he didn't border to name it after his wife. Mama peace shld stop riding on another man's glory. |
