The Kajola Railway Plant

This magnificent asset of industrialisation has to be one of Nigeria's greatest achievements in recent times.

Buhari gets the praise for this.

This country now builds train coaches and wagons.

It is no mean feat, as this is an activity usually associated with industrialised nations, and it signals that Nigeria is slowly taking its rightful place among those nations.

Train Coach Example

Interior





Our railway plant in Kajola, Ogun state, has orders pouring in from across Africa for train coaches, as we speak.

The plant is abuzz with manufacturing activity, with thousands of Nigerians from all sections of the country employed there, and the plant has even built and supplied coaches already to the NRC, for the Lagos-Ibadan line and others.

Kudos to all concerned for this laudable project that has established Nigeria as the train building headquarters of the African continent.

The story is that when Buhari met Xi Jinping in Beijing, Buhari told him he needed CCECC, China's top rail manufacturer, to not just build railway lines and stations in Nigeria, but also a train manufacturing plant, to help in transfer of technology to Nigeria.

Xi Jinping then consulted with CCECC officials, and then later he promised Buhari over dinner that CCECC would build a train factory in Nigeria that had the capacity to produce 225 different variations of coaches and wagons out of the 315 in the CCECC main railway plant in China.

The result is the Kajola railway plant.

Top-notch deal by Buhari.

Commendable. Atleast we starting from somewhere

The power of continuity!

Initiated by President Mohammadu Buhari, and reached completion under His Excellency, President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (GCFR)

No doubt that, there was never a time in the political history of the world, where two super leaders handed the baton of leadership to each other.


It’s a blessing upon Nigeria.

This is another flash in the pan.

Let's pray its not another white elephant project that will be left decaying away in few years to come.

The story is that when Buhari met Xi Jinping in Beijing, Buhari told him he needed CRRC, China's top rail manufacturer, to not just build railway networks and stations in Nigeria, but also a train manufacturing plant, to help in transfer of technology to Nigeria.

Xi Jinping then consulted with CRRC officials, and then later he promised Buhari over dinner that CRRC would build a train factory in Nigeria that had the capacity to produce 225 different variations of coaches and wagons out of the 365 in the CRRC main railway plant in China.

The result is the Kajola railway plant.

Top-notch deal by Buhari.

Will we get there. Omo Ogun ise ya!

A welcome development, the locals are employed, it creates direct and indirect jobs, forex is saved, and to top it all, the importation of forex via the supply chain.

Not forgetting, the youths within the state, the environs and beyond are engaged or employed ---lest crime and nuisances within the locality and environs as well.

Absolutely.

Very well said.

Ok

Lol

It's not located in the terrorist region so it won't be a flash in the pan or a white elephant project.

All the enemy of Nigeria will live long in shame

The maker of this video actually lifted the writeup he was reading from somewhere.


To the topic, this is the model that should be adopted in arms production, too.


That steel complex in Ajaoukuta should be made to work.

If all states in Nigeria are like Lagos and Ogun, we won't be having issues with poverty

Ogun state has become a very fast industrialising place.

It appears the state has provided a very conducive environment for investors.

Everybody wants to site a factory there, it seems.

I'm impressed by their progress.

With Bad Road everywhere, the state governor is waiting for federal government to do road for them

With Bad Road everywhere, the state governor is waiting for federal government to do road for them

If the roads are so bad, why are so many factories setting up there?

This plant also serves the need of intending states looking to build a railway network, eg Anambra with Onitsha.

No more need for dollars to import expensive train coaches.

They can now source everything here in Nigeria, with Naira.

It is logical to set your factory in area close to large market (Lagos). And if you would be exporting also and want peace you would also consider ogun state.
The roads are seriously bad!

Indeed. They will become valuable experts somewhat with the transfer of specialist knowledge they will no doubt gain from foreign technical experts. Great initiative from Buhari. Kudos to him for this.

Amen baba.. I support your prayers..
Long live Nigeria.. Fatherland

Thanks the Igbos again, we owe these people a lot for the development they've brought to every part of Nigeria except South East.

federal government is deliberately not supporting development in SE/SS
so unfortunate.
Railway, seaport, airport, all critical infrastructure are not utilized

So good to hear this, kudos to 9ja.

Seconded!

Wow, information is key in anything we do.
I thank this individual for producing this great video,he is indeed a patriot
This are the projects that are necessary for the Industrialisation of any nation
If we can get our Power and Transportation Infrastructure right,nobody can hold this nation from becoming a world power
I also want to encourage the Federal Government concession to the Chinese government that white Elephant project called Ajaokuta
This is the only group I believe can make good use of that plant,at least they will have the raw materials needed to keep producing steel for the rail line

In as much as I love this news,I am saddened by the reality of the Road network in Ogun state
The Ogun state government needs to look at the possibility of concessioning some roads in the state to private individuals
Most border towns in Ogun state are a big mess and I believe it is time for those in government to start looking at the possibility of engaging private stakeholders to handle some projects

Wonderful.

I like the name kajola: it means let's prosper together.

This means railway projects will now be cheaper to construct in nigeria.

Get well soon.

YEP.

We can now design and build indigenous railway systems with no single foreigner in sight.

It’s fantastic.

Next is AIRCRAFT.

We must start to build our own jets, including fighter jets.

Beautiful name indeed.

When will Ondo attracts industries like this?

Ugly exterior, beautiful interior.
Where are they getting steel to fabricate this? Just imagine if our steel industry saw light of the day.
