When you go to a city like Dubai with zero oil you will be wondering what a state and country like Nigeria with abundant of resources are doing with their own money... What do u expect when tinubu is landlord or Lagos state

shut up
stop being a tribalist
grow up dude

He can't grow beyond where he is now.

Not his fault

Couple of things:

1. Lagos State doesn't have the money to complete it.

2. I heard (not confirmed) that there was a particular problem with the technical planning which needs to be corrected, but the correction will come at a high cost.

3. Best bet is for the state govt to shift to a PPP arrangement, and seek a private partner that can finance all or most of the cost. This is going to be difficult because not many companies will be interested in taking that risk, particularly as the project is unlikely to be sufficiently profitable, if at all.

I would not be surprised if this project remained unfinished until well beyond 2025. Infact, I believe there is a small, but serious risk that this project will never be completed.

See another ZOMBIE
Oga, are you aware that Lagos is the second worst city to live in the world.
It is second only behind the ISIS-ravaged Damascus, capital of Syria.

See, you need to travel.
Your post exposes you as a village champion who has never travel

and Aba, umuahia and onistha are the most dirtiest city in the world..

johnmartus:
Shut up did you read the write up. Point to where the
Op is praising government. The guy was trying to ridicule government for their inability to deliver the project at exact dateline.

D fact that d govt couldn't deliver d project at d exact date, is already a ridicule on its own. D op autoreportng didn't ridicule d govt. He only reported d ridicule that d govt ridiculed itself

johnmartus:
Seun must regulate your activity on nairaland.

Y should Seun do that?

johnmartus:
The question is this who send you this? And who are you working for? However what do you want to gain from this.

What exactly is wrong with d report? Is it not d truth? If it isn't, do justice by countering anything he has said with facts

AutoReportNG:

...

It will be recalled that the idea of developing rapid transit in Lagos dates from 1983 with the Lagos Metroline network conceived by the Alhaji Lateef Jakande during the Second Nigerian Republic. The initial Metroline project was scrapped in 1985 by Pres. Muhammadu Buhari at a loss of over $78 million to the Lagos taxpayers. The idea of developing a light rail network for Lagos was revived by Lagos former Governor, Bola Tinubu in the early 2000s with a formal announcement of its construction in December 2003.

Everything he touches turn to gold

lol.. forget you be lagosian, far more lagosian than any far off SWter can be, enjoy oga mi sir ..

Omo iya!...


Owo mi wa la atmosphere...tuale!

The attitude of our government towards developmental projects is not encouraging at all! I can't imagine why up till now the Lagos blue and red line rail system have not been completed. So many factors could be responsible for this. One of such factors is lack of purpose for every project initiated. So many abandoned projects are lying idle all over the nation. The most painful is that the masses are the ones suffering this their inemptitudeness. May God help us.

We need to understand that for some people to remain wealthy lagos has to be in chaos, I do not know if it’s directly affecting them now. This rail project was supposed to make so much sense considering the number of buildings that has gone down. Ambode built that gigantic nonsense at Oshodi ignoring a bigger project he even bought new buses to further congest the roads. The bedrock of this backwardness is wrong choice of governors after Fashola. The man at Bourdillon still rules. Lagos is congested no doubts but where are the infrastructures put in place to make sure things move?

Advocate500:
guy hw do u sleep at night? So much hate in ur blood, dis people no send ur lazy ass.

them no send but them dey open thread day by day to spill hate..
Nonsense and ingredients

with the slow rate of development in Lagos, I think an end to dictate of the Lagos landlord who resides in bourdillon is the only through which the state can achieve maximum development and harness its full potentials and anything contrary to this would be an effort in futility. The state is continuously becoming its decrepit, thus to maximize its potentials Lagosians must [b]RESCUE [/b]the state from his grasp.

Dubai with zero oil?

Very rich of zombies to accuse PDP of not completing any rail project in sixteen years (conveniently ignoring kad-Abj and Abj light rails) but jump to the defence of tinubu and co over the failure of this particular project.
Alatenuje ni gbogbo yin.
They even call themselves patriots!!
What an insult to patriots everywhere on the earth

I'm sure all it will say is pdp trained 'activist' troll. Ccecc are executing that contract at next to zero profit.anytime there is a variation, it is a looking looking story between them and lasg. You must think this is like your enugu assembly building projects, not so?

Keep on wailing . that is all you will ever be good for. Some of the delays you are making noise over were due to your precious gej administration.

You are even more senseless than I thought. We are talking transport, you are talking pdp. Are you okay? Like seriously. It's like your brain is haemorrhaging and you don't even know it.

What's your take?

Please do not compare Nigeria with Ethiopia's SGR. There's a big difference. Areas where the pillars for the rails are being built are disputed. There are complex relocation logistics where they encounter areas with pipeline.

And since you are interested in Ethiopia's SGR.

Real asinwin x2. People like him are the reason Africa as a continent can't move forward cos they will stupidly be applying sentiments to very serious issues. All of them giving excuses for this project failure are the biggest problems of our society.

Would you also give GEj due credit for building Abj-Kaduna rail and Abj metro rail?
Since you've found a way to blame him for a project conceived since 2008 and still uncompleted 4yrs after he left office.

And label you PDP when you point out there stupidity and hypocrisy to them. Just look how he robbed GEj, PDP and Enugu into a project that is being handled by a state that has never been controlled by PDP!!

Infact, I was wondering if I was on the right thread.

Idiotic fellows. They have become so used to living in failure and making excuses for the failure. Turning every topic to politics in a very senseless manner.

oya madam project manager, answer this question

if i award a project to you at 200million, and due to forex fluctuations, project cost increases to 400million , and there is no contingency, and project is financed by a loan, how do you go forward once you have exhausted available project funding without reaching your tranche milestones?

please tell us. since you are an experienced project manager and not just an empty headed wailer

I just hope they're gaining something tangible from this their unholy activities. It will be a double tragedy if they just happen to be urchins who feed off crumbs and scraps from their paymasters

Whatever they are gaining even if millions is a case of mortgaging their entire futures. Nigeria has one of the lowest life expectancy rates (53) in the world, the pollution from vehicles is a key factor and one dense fellow is justifying a TEN YEAR DELAY. Asking foolish questions upandan. Geez!

Tell him to forward it to tinubu for answers

In addition to my earlier post, in order for Lagos to achieve mega-city status, it needs to have a great public transportation option. Not only should these lines be completed, they should have park and ride/bus transfer centers along the major stations. Also, tickets should be available for morning, afternoon, day and month and should be purchased online/mobile app/at the terminal to reduce the chances of hoarding and corruption.
