The rails from Abuja to Kaduna are the best.

Picture of the north you are asking for, does it have to do with the Railways system ?

If not, you are derailing the thread..

GEJ is a joke if you don't know. This is what a country with so much oil money can come up with. Why do some set of nigerians love [size=18pt]MEDIOCRITY[/size]. compare that scrab to this in South Africa, nonsense

As much as GEJ has flaws, your reasoning is

1. Nigeria's oil wealth is split between the FG, 36 states and 730+ local governments. It's unfair to acclaim Nigeria's oil wealth to one unit - the FG - rather than ALL entities.

2. What Nigeria or the FG receives is what partially finances the budget (obviously excluding the excesses of NNPC). We can see the effect of falling oil prices right now, is it on this meager budget that you want Nigeria to build a system worth several billions of $$$?

3. Thus, it's not feasible for Nigeria to build HSR like you pointed out in the pic. Research shows that such systems are heavily expensive, in fact, most cities and municipalities are heavily indebted when such projects are undertaken. The folks in those cities are paying the high price of HSR, if implemented in Nigeria, will you pay the price? As long as a decent rail system is present and can move you from one city to the other, let's cut our coat according to our size.

4. Stop the comparison between Nigeria and SA because they are on different levels and I mean in terms of obstacles to development. I believe that the rail structure isn't the best BUT it's a notch up from the decayed old system we know about. Is there room for improvement? Yes, but let's be realistic in our demand and approach to our demand.

Bottom line: Nigeria made money from oil, but the money was split anyway making it nearly IMPOSSIBLE to build such railway infrastructures. Furthermore, the "Nigerian Railway Act pose a serious impediment to its success, and as a result, the burden of improvement largely depends on the FG. I am sure that if railway was privatized BUT price regulated, HSR will come at its time.

The thread is about Good things the present administration has done which is commendable but I also ask him to post the present situation of the north so we can compare and contrast if his statement is correct regarding our opinion about the present government...Cos from my view he only posted the good without the bad part as well

Great

Who wants to see how Jonathan AMAZINGLY Transformed Security in Nigeria especially in the North East??

One question I keep asking is: what would these minions have said if the gsm revolution had taken place under this mediocre leadership

Person for read road talk for nairaland so

It's very easy to criticise without cross checking the Facts, it's even easier to criticise blindly because in a blind state the individual is in a state of darkness and oblivious of what is happening in the surrounding !
Until we understand the past appreciating the future and the present might be difficult!

It was Nicholas Sparks who said
That "You're going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. It's actions, not words, that matter"

I leave you with sights and visuals of the how President Jonathan Met our Rail way system and it's current state as at this morning!

Happy viewing Happy weekend

God Bless Nigeria

That train there uses electricity! GEJ wanted to fix the electricity problem once and for all but apc sends their clouts to bomb the gas turbines which would be used to generate the electricity needed

Open another thread for that.

My opinion: the mayhem that has befallen the north is sad, in fact, words cannot express the tragic events including loss of lives the north have experienced. Nonetheless, the north brought upon itself the destruction that's engulfing it. Our people say "he who brings ant infested woods invites lizards into his home". I feel bad as to what's going on and I pray daily that God will intervene but security starts at home. I do not like SLS but I commend him for finally speaking out against BH, although I had initially thought he supported them. I may be wrong, but we need everyone to condemn this heinous act of terrorism committed by BH. Question: is the north is willing to join the train?

Aregbesola go soon announce free ride to Osun,if there are no good rail lines,will there be coaches....

even though GEJ has not performed, you must still give credit to him for the railway transformation!
It would be the bedrock of Modern railway transportation in Nigeria!

So wat? Naija deserve more than this,#Abeg jonathan out.

Thanks for this thread op,Goodluck has Done massively well,upon all the set backs from BH.

GEJ till Buhari start speaking ijaw....And accept Jesus Christ as his lord and saviour...

ogb5:


Yes we have people who can do better, Certainly Buhari is not one of them. You can not do better when you are promising to stabilize world oil price that is beyond your control. We have seen those who did worse and left the railway in the previous comatose state, we don't want to try another failure, Buhari.

Buhari shouldn't even call to mind of any when matters of moving Nigeria forward arises

Do ppl in east enjoy dat locomotive train dey showed us ? Hw many of dos locomotive is operational? Pls make I go beach go relax

ochejoseph:
Moving from a comatose rail system to what we presently have despite the huge expenditure expended in tackling insurgency coupled with the beheading, kidnap and killing of many rail construction workers is commendable!

in a few weeks time the president will also be commissioning sub saharan Africa's First speed rail

though some improvement but in d 21st century, is ds d rail in South-Africa? Or Namibia

So because he fixed the railway I should be dancing Azonto? How about the looming crises from the devaluation of Naira as a result of executive looting? Is this all we are getting from the missing $20bn unaccounted for? How many of those trains are available. Please take a trip to lagos and see how people hang on to the trains like ants. This is mediocrity!

25yrs! Are you so dùmb?

It does'nt still change my decision of not voting for him, if I have the opportunity to vote...
After almost 6yrs- "6 Years" in power, Na only railway transcript
im dey brag about, was a railway system not present before in Nigeria...
If he was even talking about an upgrade to bullet trains... is maintenance of infrastructure (esp important ones like transportation) not supposed to be part of a nations budget? mtchew...

The "only" thing G.E.J's done for Naija's history was to remove fuel subsidy and still maintain that D.A.M woman till now.

complete Nonsense... abeg Next chapter

All are morons, but lets give different morons a chance until proven otherwise... keeping one moroñ in control for so long makes us all morons.
