Sincere 9gerian: That Monorail to nowhere is a white elephant project. Amaechi should have learnt from Lagos and Abuja who are building a light rail. In sane societies, Amaechi should have been forced to resign on account of that very wasteful mis-adventure. Tens of billions of naira, gone down the drain just like that

ISpiksDaTroof: Ebubedike Akabuwa, you have returned.

hardywaltz:
Jixosss where this insincere 9gerian from come again? U still dey alive...
I'm sure if it's ur clueless master GEJ u would have found reasons to support him.

phantom: because he's not in your party.what are you all doing with those two or three fancy fly overs in uyo when you people prefer to still move to Lagos and PH to build batchers.

OmoLisabi: The same Lagos light rail you called a fraud is what you want somebody to learn from. Hypocrite

Sincere 9gerian:
Shameless supporter of APC liar. Why not show us the post where I called the Lagos light rail "fraud".

Light rail project in any part of Nigeria is laudable. My only criticism of the Lagos light is that it is taking too long a time to complete.

Itoroetti:

we are not like peeps like u dat doesnt visit ur village rather becoming a slave in someone's house.
have u been to akwa ibom or u are just been short sighted about ideas?
how will the monorail dicongest the heavy traffic situation in phc?
village man

hardywaltz: This morning the Rivers State Government/Ministry of Transport finally made good it's promise and has begone the installation of the trains in the much talk about monorail project.
Chibuike Amaechi the Lion of the Tribe of Ubima and the Ekwu-eme 1 of Rivers State continues to deliver even the face of intimidation.

phantom: mbok move over abeg. come to rumuokoro and see the large population if akwa ibomites who have fled your state looking for a better life. yes I ve been to uyo countless times. akpabio has done well BUT no where near amaechi. amaechi has made mistakes plenty even yet he remains one of the best governors to come out of this dispensation. ekere your former deputy governor is a family friend. go and ask him why he was frustrated out.

ogb5:

I have never felt bad like this for a long time.
The worst part is that Amaechi might actually get away with the fraud he is perpetuating in Rivers.

The third picture actually captures the fraud. They are placing the locomotive on rails not supported by any pillar. They used a crane to support the rail while loading the train on the rail.

This project is nothing but a fraud yet some useless people are praising Amaechi over it.

redsquare:


This shows that you know nothing about length and measurement. What is 5.5km long? So from Aggrey road to UTC bus stop is 5.5 km? Dude you're high on cow dung.

hardywaltz:
Thanks for publicly displaying ur ignorance, if u have eva seen a monorail (I doubt u have) u will know it does not have wheels like a regular train.
The train has to be put in place throu sliding it into the rails and then the end rail reconnected to the rest of the system.
I wish most of u guyz who are youths can let go of your hatred and be objective and if you don't know something keep shut or ask simple questions.

noblezone: The [b]mono-snail[/b]l has reached about 1 kilometre!
Amaechi can decieve only those who are not in Port HarCourt!

Soon they will commission the project, they will use the best tricky camera men to make the mono-snail look like 100Km instead of the 1km.

Those who doubt our position that the project is a white elephant project, should visit Port Harcourt and see for themselves.

talktimi: I have said it countless times, those applauding this scam of a project dont stay in ph and cant cant even point out port harcourt on a map of Rivers state. Even a cripple can confidently treck from utc to Lagos bus stop without breaking a sweat

Abagworo: I want to believe that you just wrote out of ignorance or probably your personal hatred of Amaechi for refusing to be a tribalist, sectionalist and standing by the right of the masses of Nigeria. Everyone must not belong to PDP or support Jonathan as we all have freedom of association. That said I'd like to educate the sincere laymen on how Amaechi has dared the 1st world by attempting and accomplishing a monorail. Ask yourselves about the longest monorail in the world and how many years it took to achieve it. http://www.japanese-greatest.com/civil-engineering-construction/longest-monorail.html The Osaka monorail was the longest monorail in the world with a length of 21.2 kilometres. As of April 2007, it is 28.0 kilometres long, which is still breaking the record.
The Osaka Monorail opened in June 1990. The first line ran 6.6 kilometres between Senri-Chuo and Minami-Ibaraki stations. The new railway opened in August 1997. It was 7.9 kilometres long and connected Minami-Ibaraki with Kadoma city. After the railway between Osaka International Airport and Kadoma opened, Osaka Monorail was the longest monorail when combined with the 13.3 kilometre way between Osaka International Airport and Minami-Ibaraki, surpassing Tokyo Monorail, the previous longest monorail (16.9 kilometres).
The Osaka Monorail is operated by Osaka Monorail Co., Ltd. and is 28.0 kilometres long as of April 2007(including the mail line, Saito Line). Osaka Monorail Line (Main line) from Osaka International Airport to Kadoma is 21.2 kilometres long, International Culture Park Line (Saito Line) from Expo Park to Saito-Nishi is 6.8 kilometres long.
There are two types of monorail systems, Alweg straddle-type and Safage suspension type. Osaka Monorail has the Alweg system.
The Guinness World Record of the longest monorail with the Safage system, incidentally, is the Chiba Urban Monorail.

talktimi: I dont know whether to say you're funny or to call you a deluded clown. I've noticed one thing with your ilk and that is, you guys dont like anyone criticizing your party lords but I dont play that way. My tongue lashing is for every politician who defaults no matter the divide he or she falls into. That said, I would like you to please find out the size of the economy of Osaka compared to Port Harcourt and say with ALL honesty if we really need an expensive as hell monorail or a more cost effective tramline system like I and other sane minds have advocated for. In the write up you quoted, it is said the Osaka line opened at an initial 6.6km compared to the roughly 1km Amaechi wants us to start with which some people in buses plying the route right now beg conductors to take 30 naira as fare from utc to Lagos bus stop. Now I ask you, of what economic importance is this 1km to us right now ? For crying out loud, if these politicians call us fools, dont you as an ordinary member of the populace dare call us fools too. This is a state finding it difficult to pay Timariv staff, this is a state finding it difficult to pay 13000 teachers it forcefully employed last yr against conventional wisdom from the ministry of education and you're telling me to be happy about this charade ? Thanks but no thanks bro. Only next time, dont you dare call me a tribalist for speaking the truth. Meanwhile ask your boss what he and Samson Parker did with the Clinotech funds that was released. We're still waiting for our "mega hospital"

truth4meal:
coming from someone whose principal is rehabilitating archaic transport system and celebrating same as achievement. What can one say about the billions GEJ your paymaster spend on those snails called train in this technological age. Am sure he should also resign - arrested and jailed

Abagworo: . I was also a critique of the monorail project until I realized its a daring project. The length is actually 2km and not 1km like you wrote earlier and it is a very patient and rare futuristic project.
