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
so in the picture, what happens to the other rail line?

oga, some or most of these rails were just completed. you don't expect them to start running immediately. but let me even take an objective stand to things, everybody is talking about obasanjo and praising him for what he did and didn't do. understand that obasanjo is a smart man and understands the laws of power that is why he managed to stay this relevant. ask yourself, do you in all honesty think OBJ paid for the contract in full before leaving office, or its what you heard in the media. if you tell me you were there when the transaction took place, I won't bother arguing. Now talking about roads in comparison to rails. rails are safer than roads and to be honest in a country like Nigeria, I would prefer we had more rails to ease the burden on the roads and mind you GEJ is still working on the roads
Try harder cos iam nt convienced,meanwhile,tell me the contract he initiate and excuted?

Bros or sis, this is not a party thing, be it apc,pdp, ac, anpp.... it's about individual charisma, and personality. If u call APC, is it about the name APC or the persons, or is it all the persons in the party that is good? Never, not even in pdp, or ac or whichever party... so beat it.

That's why we wanted the change we have been yearning for.

America's democracy is strong because power alternate between democrats and the republicans.

My guy please wise up and support this change PDP has failed woefully hence the need for change.

Abi o.

In fact Buhari cancelled Lagos underground train system planned by Jakande.

600,000 Naira (big money at that time) advance/mobilisation had been paid by Lagos state to contractors already.

If any of the so-called leaders started such decades ago, GEJ would be building on that.

The one they call clueless is starting from zero. All their "wise men" did nothing for over 30 years but loot.

But these people are not about truth or logic. They are blinded by tribalism and vested interests.

Nigerians and mediocrity. The govt gives u substandard projects at mind boggling cost and some morons would come online and be singing praises. I'm always moved to tears each time I see a 'train' passing through Yaba. Nigeria would not get better if we continue praising govt for delivering substandard products. Some morons on the forum are even thanking GEJ as if he did it with his money. Nigerians need a change of mentality!

Railway Transport Sytem is a Direct competitor of the Aboki Introduced Destructive Trailer Transport System so it has to bé killed.
That was the conclusion of the Caliphate Meeting held in Kano or so back In the years.
You can get all these secret News in Tell and many other ones that were functioning during it Era but which where not own by any Nigerian.
Truth is Bittern I tell you fellow Southerners, this thing call Nigeria is a wast of time and Energy and Precious Resource.
I wonder if clay can ever combine with Iron.

am routing for GEJ not because he used our common funds to award contracts for this commendable railway projects, but because there is not yet issue driven candidacy available yet not even the hypocritical APC, APC CLAIMED THAT CONTROLLING THE SOUTHWEST WILL MAKE CREATE RAILS ACROSS THE SOUTH WESTERN BLOCK, FOUR YEARS AFTER NOTHING HA BEEN SEEN AND THEY ARE HERE SHOUTING CHANGE AND CARRYING BROOM

If you are old enough to witness Buhari reign, you realise that he real meant well for the country (thou) he not perfect.

You mean a naira now $194, thats fixing in your damaged brain? Blind mediocre!

What does naira being N194 to a dollar got to do with the transformation of the railway?...To your kinds N1 should be $1 without any idea of the advantage in the devaluation of the nation currency. How much is the Chinese currency to the US dollar? Has that stopped the progress in the Chinese economy? high time for you guys to wake up and know this silly argument of the naira being devalued makes no political point in the lead to the presidential election because a slightly devalued currency will encourage exports and tourism. I wont be surprise to hear your Voodoo economist general come to tell us he will make the Naira at par with the dollar by sending a bill to the National assembly since he can no longer decree it without any Macro economic support

I never said its a child's play, what I ask for is the picture of the north presently...If it has the support of the north like u said, don't u think the presidency wud have fished those involve out.. When the chibok Girls were kidnap, they all accused the state Governor in all conspiracy talk and now he has been cleared....Let's leave the north agenda or born to rule talk, let's just face the question I asked
Were you also aware that security directives/advise was given, not to go ahead with the exams b4 the chibok girls were kidnap and the governor of the state waved away the advise saying security were in place? Are you also aware that the principal daughter was not among those kidnapped girls and she ought to be among....with those facts you should deduce that it was an insider plan jez to discredit the president because how on earth will over 200girls be kidnapped in a state without the people in power of the state knowing, 200+ come on they are girls not mosquitoes. Its high tome we desist from ds destructive type of opposition and embrace true democracy where each one of us contribute our quota for the betterment of Nigeria

yes it is open knowledge that he sanctioned d attacks, federal government prosecuting him? Hahaha. U and I know the answer to that. We re living witnesses to thieves walking freely in Nigeria today, some are even pardoned and given national honours.

Shame on you if you call this progress. In reality this is retrogression. These contracts are handled by government cronies, they cut the funds and give you sub standard trains and rails, but you wont see that because your lifestyle is mediocre in its best.

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.

it either u r a tan ambassador or benefiting somehw from this govt on personal ground. GEJ has been given 7yrs nothing concrete to shw. I can bet the op doesnt even enter the train he is publicising.. Hw come they keep showing us pictures of the train.? I dont hv knw anyone who has entered dis so called trains cos dey r over crowded and to not cross d city. It is foolishness to keep doing the same thing and expect a different result. Gej has been tested and he has failed. The truth is am not sure APC may deliver as promised but I will atleast give them a chance. Since I hv given jona for 7yrs. If you hv a battery dat wont start your car, u try it for 7yrs it doesnt start the engine and u then hv anoda battery in your store u hvnt tried it in a long time. Wont you aleast try dat out to see if it wld start the ride. The truth is dis we are tired of corruption. Do u knw d level of corruption in this system. Even if buhari doesnt bring abt a radical change atleast I knw corruption will reduce. And pls dont get me wrong oh I knw gej is a nice man and means well for nigerians the problem is he lack the capacity to bring abt the change.
