Nigerian Middle men are the major problem of this great country, they will look for a way to make money from any chance

It's a mentality. Every Nigerian is a middleman, it all depends on how much opportunity he gets to practice as one

Did anybody believe there would be free train ride even when the president said so? Audio free train ride.

mfm04622:


The ticket for Abuja to Kaduna Line is fully automated! Fully!
They buy up the ticket and then resell at a high markup!

A fully automated system can restrict racketeering. e.g When an IP address/ATM card buys more than 4 tickets it should be prevented from buying again.

There are other checks in place that can prevent racketeering.

Time to cashout snap the fed free notice stuff and get a good lawyer sue them boom!! Snap also ticket sell to you

Why is ticketing not automated and put online? So people can purchase through web app or the internet? Everything na racket for this country.

When the government declared free tickets I knew it was going to be a big issue to implement.


Yes Tickets are sold online,since its free it makes it very easy for ticket jackers to buy everything online then wait at the train stations to sell to desperate travellers at any price they want to

We are our own problem in this country.

Why will a sane person declare FREE rides on Xmas day...

It’s a business!

poiZon:

Because the system allows nigerians to be cheat.

No be you and I dey in charge of the system?? The system does not run itself, we run it the way we desire either to outsmart it or otherwise

You don't know these people! In Fact, the system limit the number of tickets you can buy.

But there are officials at those stations na... Even if they wanted to resell, the difference is just too much, from 2k to 8k... Kilode, even God is Good motors didn't increase their fare at that percentage

You must be speaking from the other side of your brain, what is here to be deceived about. You are seeing it happening right to your face, yet the country is in shambles and this one is typing gutter talk on a faceless forum.

You must be suffering from conglemeration of phycological malady.

This is another youth supporting this colossal administration after he was paid #1500 I don't have sympathy for pple like you, you are jus poor both mentally and physically I already know, I don't need any astrologer to say it to me.

Abeg please don't just support this government with fake promises

That's Nigerians for you. Buhari would not know. Passengers should not buy tickets and remain there to cause trouble.

That's the only way those boys would stop the nonsense.

Nigerians should help Buhari and themselves in enforcing the law / directive.

Who takes directives from lifeless goon.

When the President of a country is not in charge

Yes there are officials ,they are part of the perpetrators .Meanwhile train ticket from Abuja to Kaduna is 3,000 for regular coach,2,000 for minors and 6,000 for VIP.

That road route is a very dangerous one,they know people will pay anything not to be on that road .

Really

The minister of transport should contract tickets handling to a 3rd party company who must insist on NIN to purchase tickets let us see how they will racket that.

CCTV should be deployed all over the place.

Tinubuadvocate:
This showing that Buhari is not in control. This is really sad .

Of course
He is not in control of criminals

dapolaw:
I took Ibadan to Lagos yesterday, free of charge.

Thanks for this... At least some good news. I know this government has been messing up, but it seems some people are always happy when they read bad news about the country.

This is your ONE NIGERIA! Thieves and fraudsters everywhere!

otokx:
Until the process is fully automated, things like this should be expected.

I booked it for free today for someone.

Why is it free on the Lagos-Ibadan route and costly on the Kaduna Abuja route? Same directive, different implementation styles.

Alaye nothing was defiled.... I followed that train today... Idu (Abuja) - Kaduna ... And it was free ...
Maybe this that bought it actually bought from black market m

bobbiiee:
Am not of the opinion that this is not true. Can those that board trains during this period send the picture of tickets.

Exactly! How can people pay 12k for train rides that they normally pay 2k for. It just doesn't make sense to me.

EmekaBlue:
The useless government just gave a directive instruction without anything in place like say na so things dey work

walahi this Apc led government are so useless but not totally useless atleast They can be used as a bad example to others

if you don't no what to why not you stay quite. What is else do you want the government to do, why not you guys stand on right

EmekaBlue:

Abeg please don't just support this government with fake promises

Buhari government is full of fake promises...

Are you happy now? The first picture was me, and the second was with my kids at the train station while we were waiting to board.

True, there's no way such will be going on without the officials being involved. Even more annoying is the fact that its happening in the capital city where the ministry is headquartered

Your second paragraph though. They're reaping off the desperation of people to travel.

lol no be naija lawless country

I boarded a train from kogi state today free to warri before continuing to portharcourt.
