Firefire: Lord Deliver Us From Tinubu Group Of Companies. I think we need to float another political party in Southwest. I'd prefer a new political party. I'm sick of this CHANGE. We shouldn't be contented with the performance of our governors, we should keep asking for more because SW should have developed past this stage we are. Oodua Development Political Party (ODPP) would be nice. Yoruba Interest Comes First, To Hell With The Saboteurs (Both PDP and APC). God Bless Yorubaland. 1 Like |

Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by Firefire(m): 6:34pm On Nov 06, 2015 |
IyaIode: You are right... the rail terminate in Okokomaiko, while the 10 lanes continue to Badagry. There is the Blue Line from Okokomaiko to Marina; the Red Line from Agbado to Marina via Iddo and Muritala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA); the Green Line from Marina to Lekki (Airport) ; the Yellow Line from Otta to Iddo and the Purple Line from Redeem to Ojo. There are also the Orange Line from Redeem to Marina and the Brown Line from Mile 12 to Marina. In this layout, there are the North-South corridor between Agbado and Iddo along the Nigerian Railway corridor; the Eastern corridor to serve the Lekki to Epe axis; and the western corridor to serve the Mile2 – Okokomaiko axis. The Blue Line, a 27 km rail road with thirteen stations from Okokomaiko to Marina is currently undergoing construction right in the middle of Lagos-Badagry Expressway which government is currently expanding and redeveloping into a ten-lane international gateway. Apart from rail, the infrastructure design also includes provision for BRT and multimode integration with Non-Motorized Transport such as pedestrian walkways and overhead bridges for safe access by passengers to rail and bus stations. Work commenced in August 2009 for construction of the Blue Line rail infrastructure, awarded to China Civil Engineering Construction Company (CCECC) as a design and build contract. CCECC prepared the detailed plan, design and construction works for the rail infrastructure. These works includes stations, roadbed, bridges, permanent way (P-way) tracks works, pedestrian ways and other associated fixed infrastructure. “The first phase is between National theatre and Mile 2; that was actually awarded in 2010 and we are hoping that by 2014 that phase will be finished and then move on from Mile 12 to Okokomaiko and then come back to National Theatre to construct the infrastructure to Marina.” 2 Likes

Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by Nobody: 6:43pm On Nov 06, 2015 |
IyaIode: Then how come that lane is the most developed if they don't have any plans to include rail |
Re: Yoruba Commonwealth and Politics by Firefire(m): 6:44pm On Nov 06, 2015 |
Aareonakakanfo: Nope! But 10 lanes is fine to us. But unfortunately, no hope of even completing that project in the next 24 Months or Yrs. See Ambode comments few days ago... According to him, “What we have come here to do is to specifically ensure that the contractor of the project is mobilised. It’s also important to us that the contractor takes it as a major priority. The Mile 2 Badagry expressway is very important to all of us and like we said, it’s a project that we must finish. “It is a project that I would like to complete within the shortest possible time. So, I will like to see greater work done on the road project itself. On the rail project, like we have said before, we are going to mobilise immediately to see that what has been done from Mile 2 to National Theatre is continued to Marina within the next 12 months. “We should be able to put to use whatever has been done from Mile 2 to Marina. Immediately they commence work on the road project from Mile 2 towards Badagry, once we pass the Okokomaiko area, we should be able to do the Blue Rail from Mile 2 to Okokomaiko.” Mile 2 to National Theatre - 12 Months (This part is almost completed by Fashola before leaving) http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/ambode-lagos-light-rail-to-be-completed-in-12-months/214843/ After polishing Fashola's work after 12 Months, we can now start immediately for the Mile 2 towards Badagry. Can you see the wisdom of the governor ? Ogbon ti o to eyokan, to nda si meji. No hope nor respite for Lagosians in that axis of Lagos in the next months to come, at least after 12 colander month. 1 Like |

IyaIode: The first two lines being developed are the Red Line and the Blue Line. The project which was awarded for $1.5 billion to China Civil Engineering Construction Company (CCECC) in 2009, began with the simultaneous construction of the Red and Blue Lines. http://www.cometonigeria.com/travel-news-and-events/under-construction/under-construction-lagos-badagry-expressway-and-eko-rail/ That cost was in 2009, it has be adjusted severally by Fashola before leaving...

Aareonakakanfo: See the rationale behind the project, unfortunately our leaders failed to deliver to promise. Economic development So it will become 42-43 minutes and that is a huge improvement for the people that are living on that axis. “Those going to work on the Island, schools, hospitals, and to other various places will benefit enormously from it. Beyond that, it is also going to generate economic development along that corridor. It’s going to open up access to all those areas that will generate employment, that will create housing , that will create industrial development, hospitals, schools everything that is needed along that corridor. “The rail project situated in the middle of the Lagos-Badagry corridor, which leads to neighboring Benin Republic and other countries in the ECOWAS, would make it easy for people from those countries doing business in Lagos to have easy access to the commercial nerve centre of Nigeria. It will lead to making a vibrant city, making Lagos an accessible place and making goods affordable within and outside Lagos. So again, we are increasing the economic aspect of Lagos and indeed Nigeria.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/08/lagos-building-new-nigeria-rail-projects-lamata-boss/ 1 Like |

Firefire: You are in opposition simply for your advantage , it is not to further the Yoruba[ cause... I live in a city where IT HAPPENS, & that happens is "share the money" & making their associates & cronies stupendously rich in quick time.... Bala Mohd's years in FCT was only to deliver dividends of democracy to mama piss' coffers... any development you see is solely restricted to the city centre.. Take a tour around the mega million estates & suburbs before getting on a soap box to denigrate anyone... The bolded is insincere & we both know it... Kindly let us restrict all PARTISAN views to the numerous partisan boards Here, let's keep it purely as an avenue to advance the yoruba tribe's culture, values & progress.. Thx. @ nduchuks , I'm 150% convinced there is not a drop of yoruba blood coursing through your veins.. |
