What happens when a bullet train is showered with kidnappers' bullets as the railway line traverses those vast stretches of desolate desert scrubland that are home to terrorists, kidnappers, and virgin-hunting bandits?

Northern Nigeria is among the most perilous areas of the world to travel by road or rail. Therefore, any project that proposes transporting passengers by rail across those badlands is doomed to failure due to low traveler patronage. A trainload of passengers would be a kidnapping gang's bonanza, and those hundreds of miles of railway line can't be patrolled by police helicopter or drone due to cost.

You want to give project to a company that has no history undertaking such monumental project. This is how these ministers will railroad us into another law suite that will stagnate the whole project. They did it to the Lag-Ibadan Expressway initially awarded to Bi-cortney. Same with the Mambilla hydro project awarded to Suns limited. This same problem in the power sectors; highly incompetent companies are managing the discos. What happens to just giving the project to CRCC who has already done a wonderful job on the Lag-Ibadan section? Another money laundering scam loading!

This train from Lagos to Abuja would be if immense benefit for me and my girlfriend

-Kiss the truth!

I read and understood what I read.
The company has not completed the processes before going public.
I wrote that to 'beg'them to lessen the protocol and allow the company to help Nigeria in its transportation challenges.

CoronaVirusPro:
Nigeria does not need a speed train for now!

Even the USA does not have one and citizens only see it in movies.

You may be right. But US’s transportation system is horrible, from inception. That’s why they can’t have it. US nothing having it doesn’t mean another country can’t have it.

They are trying to share part of huge revenues our airlines generate on Abuja-Lagos, Lagos-Abuja routes.

You can imagine train services charging N50k one-way compared to over 200k being charged by airlines.
Most travelers even even ditch buses, just to go by train.

It doesn’t need to be bullet train. High speed train that can get to Abuja in 4hrs is enough.

Loool. You better kiss the truth...its fake news

TimeManager:
Not a bad idea, the company just need to fulfill the requirements and the project will be approved.
