Their earning is so meagre it was not stated. This is why govt was wrong to take huge loans to build those railways. In this economy where Dangote,BUA and co make billions, govt is telling us NNPCL and co can only make losses. 42 Likes 4 Shares |

What is the returns on investment of the projects, how come it could not sevice a good part of the loan. Abuja light rail us just there as tourist attraction, no business trip on it. I wish the NASS checked the budget well before signing. All these agencies coming out with facts and figures did not tell the last regime the truth suddenly they woke up. 11 Likes |

Nawa o ! The railway project is a complete waste of funds. Who will board the train when security is not guaranteed? Up till today, no single person has been arrested or prosecuted on the attack that happened to Abuja-kaduna passengers last year. Why will the revenue not decline? Nigeria is a failed country 26 Likes 2 Shares |

By the time APC is done with Nigeria, I'll see what's left of those supporting them for ethnic and religious reasons. After all what we went through under Buhari, does any Nigerian ever need glasses before they can see that APC must never be allowed anywhere near this country's management ever again 30 Likes 3 Shares |

A very funny thieving news! You'd think a new railway was built! The aforementioned billion billions mentioned are primarily allocated to the restoration of the antiquated railways constructed during the colonial era! No bi new one dem build o! Na just to add finishing touching to already existing ones and very few substandard ones built! But how come these billion billions don't stop insecurities on the way? Come to think of it...so Nigeria with a very bad maintenance culture is claiming huge sums for servicing? Ha! Which govt stuff is really serviced with the cost they quote! Truly, the money is a national cake: you only need a big knife to cut. 7 Likes 1 Share |

When they built rail in area that's not lucrative what do you expect It will soon collapse, just like airport outside Lagos and Abuja Southeast and Southsouth are more lucrative than any other region in Nigeria same with commercial transportation by road, how may of them are ready to spend money on good commercial buses and planes, that is why Nigeria can't move forward doing the same thing from decades expecting different results, they don't even make enough money to service the debt used in constructing the railway lines not to talk of profit 19 Likes 2 Shares |

I said it Weeks back. I didn't economic analysis of those trains and most of Buhari projects... I called them failed projects that are just feel good projects I went on to show why it's makes no economic sense to use borrowed money to build things like this... I even compared them to cocoa house Ibadan... Beautiful projects to show wealth but have zero economic sustainability Again I would warn if tinubu should borrow to build infrastructure Nigeria is finished "Borrow only to provide access to credit for import substitution and export oriented businesses " That's the only way.... That's the only solution 19 Likes 1 Share |

The earlier we realize that Nigeria government cannot manage elephant projects the better for us. Nigeria government should focus on building roads and providing security while they go into partnership with private investors who can manage this investment. Railway with the huge amount of money used in building it will collapse. Talk about privatization, those politicians will still hijack it and will never work on it 1 Like |
