State Of Railway During Buhari's Time - by eleven(m): 8:28pm On Jan 19, 2015 |
Daily Independence of January 20th 1985 headline report of conditions of our railway lines during under Buhari's leadership. For those downplaying Jonathan's efforts in reviving our railway transport see what your progressive principal did to it in 1985. A problem Jonathan is solving now. This is aside the cancellation of Lagos metro line which would have added so much value to our transport sector by now. Photo credit: @ikhide 61 Likes 12 Shares

with all these some right thinking Nigerians will vote Buhari. Ok o. since the north is sabotaging GEJ'S govt with Bokoharam and claiming he is weak, when they take power even in 2019 it's their buckets that they will take to Rivers state if they must see crude. God go punish North papa. Since this has made front Page let me modify. I know every right thinking Nigerian that has followed Nigeria's Politics and development will not vote Buhari. Buhari claims he is Mr. Integrity but he does it at convinience only. If he is Mr Integrity he should come clean about the fact that he did not finish Secondary school and entered the military through quota sytem (wallahi dan uwa. wannan Kworruftion ne pa). He should come clean about the fact that he did not buy a single rifle for the Army as President. Buhari claims he is Mr Integrity but he served under Sani Abacha and said openly that Abacha is not corrupt (& we want him to fight corruption) etc I don't blame the Millions of Northerners that he and his likes has kept illiterate and poor supporting him but it hurts me when I see enlightened Nigerians like you and I shouting change. Its Pathetic. At this point we are already facing the right direction as a Nation what we need is Improvement not change. 229 Likes 28 Shares |

KwoiZabo:giving excuses for his failure.It is very unfair for you to compare a govt of 1&1/2 years with six years. but you forgot to tell the world that buhari built two refineries, that GEJ,is struggling to the revive in 6years.we should stop celebrating mediocrity. 64 Likes 3 Shares |

Jorussia:Built whaaaaaaat. The only refinery connected to Buhari is Warri Refinery started by Muritala and commissioned under OBJ when Buhari was petroleum minister. that's all. Kaduna was commissioned in 1983 by shagari and that same year Buhari toppled him, PH is 1989 by IBB and Eleme 1965. How did that uneducated crap called Buhari come into the picture? stop bowing to propaganda. The PIB currently at the National Assembly prepared by GEJ's govt. will finally kill corruption in the NNPC, so why has our legislators not pass it. well for your info. The North has missed it by frustrating GEJ'S govt with Bokoharam. 127 Likes 15 Shares |

Nigerians started criticising GEJ when he was less than 3 months in Office. One thing is that GEJ has done his part, there is no man that will ever please Nigerians while in office. The Abacha that people celebrated his death, is today one of the "saints" that ruled this country. Even if this same Buhari wins today, Nigerian will still complain in less than 1 year in office. 88 Likes 3 Shares |

Obiagelli: Any business admin/economics/accounting student understands the TIME LAG between investments and performance as well as the reverse i.e. LACK of continuous investments and SUBSEQUENT deterioration. In 1984 the peaked number of passengers benefitted from PREVIOUS regimes' investments in railways that was yet to ROT away completely. No wonder you gave us a very small excerpt of the businessdayonline story for a complete DISTORTION of what the news was all about. You were trying to be CUNNING hoping that most of our fellow citizens are LAZY mofos who won't bother to check out the source and read the whole news. Thankfully not everyone is like that. Let us see a much larger excerpt of the same story from your provided link => Operational performance of the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) reveal that the highest number of passengers carried was 15,555,200 in 1984 and the highest volume of freight was 2,375, 000 metric tonnes in 1977. Just as the daft pensioner did not buy any gun throughout his two year regime of terror as military DICTATOR he also did not buy any locomotive or coach hence passenger & cargo numbers continued to decline since 1977 until the Jonathan/Sambo decided to give REAL support to this vital sector and we have been seeing the results of steady PROGRESS everywhere The article was published almost two years ago in April 2013. Most of the planned rehabilitation & expansion by the federal administration highlighted above have been completed and citizens who had been deprived of this alternative means of transport are benefitting. munas: The story for Lagos state light rail of ONLY 27kms is very pathetic. This was a project that Jakande already started CONSTRUCTION before the sadist DESTROYER of the good works of others in the form of a military DICTATOR Buhari cancelled it and made the state pay hefty fines for breach of contract in 1983. 32 years later, we have no rail! Four years after Toronto aloku scrap train propaganda show and two years after Fashola boasted in January 2013 that five months later in June 2013 we will be tweeting from inside his aloku trains. We can only hope that the Association of Pretending Crooks, APC that has been ruining Lagos state for 16 years will not tell us it was bad business like the N8 billion Sunborn yacht floating hotel Amaechi's case is not different from SCAMMER Fashola's deception Since Amaechi joined APC he has abandoned whatever little governance he was doing for Rivers state and recently came out to boldly say without shame that he cannot complete the Port Harcourt light rail. Why would any right thinking Nigerian want to swap a PROGRESSively performing federal administration of Jonathan/Sambo for the FRAUDULENT people assembled in APC? What type of citizen would do that except those afflicted by the Cow Cloned Brain Syndrome, CCBS P.S.: Feel free to share this as widely as possible to all those you are following on NL and even outside NL.

I wasnt yet born in 1983 bt i travel on train many a time in 1992 and i can still remember how gud 1st class coaches look like. why dont you show us those rotten coaches dumped by the rail-side along Jebba-Kotangora to birnu-gwari. Atleast I still saw them in the last few month I traveled north. If you think Op is a failed Tanoid click like...................... If you think I am wrong Oya Oga boss click unlike!

There is virtually no leader in Nigeria who didn't experience security challenges ,it was how they handled them that made the difference. 2 Likes |
