CFCfan:Please, explain it to them. They think it's just about setting it up and using at once. Correct me if I'm wrong but I do not think our budget can handle those kinda trains. |

It is the mandate of the govt to provide these amenities. All the tiers of govt have theirs but Nigeria's always look up to the fed govt to execute all that's why any social amenities in dearth supply, the fed govt need to answer questions. To some extent they are right because the large tax base is in the net of the FG like PPT, CIT, CGT, VAT, WHT(BODY CORPORATE). etc. Though the FG have her lapses, we should commend the FG for the good things they are doing. Even the opposition party knows that fg is working but because of their ambition they will never ever commend the fg. A dictum says that if a man does well, give him a pat on the back he will do more. Oppostion and their fans are even benefitting more but yet they find nothing good from Gej Administration. Please one good turn deserves another. We should bring Gej back to consolidate on his transformation agenda. Buhari can't just come and reap the good works of GEJ. #Iwillvote4GEJ God bless Nigeria! 5 Likes |

Feraz: HSR would have to be a PPP-funded project. I think a viable HSR line could be Kano-Abuja-Ibadan-Lagos-Warri-Port Harcourt-Aba-Owerri-Enugu-Onitsha-Nnewi. |

Some people are myopic! They have eyes but can not see beyond their nose. I am not an antagonist neither am I a protagonist of the current government but I need to ask a question or two. How many of those that are commenting have seen the new trains working because I live in a big city, a state capital to be precise with rail lines and I have never cut across any of these newly bought trains. We need to be careful when we are celebrating the success of a government, we need to be sure that we are not being deceived. I could recall that during subsidy removal, government purchased some big luxurious buses to serve as palliative measure but unfortunately the buses did not work for up to three months here. I can tell you confidently that none of the buses is in operation here, the worst thing is that we are not seeing their relic anywhere. Jonathan will win my commendation when the train stand the test of time because they could be borrowed like the subsidy buses. 3 Likes |

MuhdG: There is also: - increased agricultural production despite removal of fertiliser SUBSIDY scam & cabal. What a miracle. Ask your relations who are in agricultural producing areas if there INCOME has increased to understand what is going on! - return and revival of automobile plants! - regular, scheduled INTERNATIONAL flights to renovated & upgraded Kano & Enugu airports apart from increased local flights to other renovated airports! - reform of the electricity sector that is beginning to deliver on its promise of BETTER provision of power! - improved foreign direct investment in various sectors. Just to give a little insight of what you may have missed in your destructive criticism. 2 Likes 1 Share |

1.The THSR 700T - Taiwan High Speed Rail (Cost $3.4 billion US) This operates on the high-speed line between Taipei and Kaohsiung in Taiwan. The train entered into service with Taiwan High Speed Rail in January 2007. It operates at a speed of 300kmph reducing the journey time between the two cities from four hours to just 90 minutes. It was constructed by Kawasaki, Hitachi and Nippon Sharyo. Based on Kawasaki's 700 series Shinkansen trains, the 700T was the first Taiwanese rolling stock to import Japanese high speed rail technology. The total investment for manufacturing the initial 30 trains in the series reached about NT$100bn ($3.4bn).courtesy of Oduastates More at https://www.nairaland.com/2067016/photos-10-billion-us-dollars But look at what you guys are rejoicing about here:

LRNZH: Yes, and we have electricity to run those electric trains abi? What if there is a power failure halfway? $3.4 billion for 450km is an investment we should be considering abi. Also who will pay for maintenances. Are you ready to pay N15,000 to travel 450km. Even if some would, would the train benefit the poor majority that live on less than $5/day? 4 Likes |

Most of those who try to belittle what this destiny child is doing are risking HBP. When we consider how far we came in 50 years and then compare what this man has done in less than 5 years, the fear of God should keep us from talking trash. Consider the spread of his interventions in all sectors in all zones. A big kudos to a rare achiever. 2 Likes |

move your neck away. hisblud: meanwhile, I hope these info sought for can be found on their site if they have one yet. For all those of you who are jobless even with your skill in site development, why not do a proposal to create a website for the railway where intending passengers can get booking info. 1 Like |
