What comes to my mind after hearing the sleeper is hooking and sex inside train? Is that possible as I have never boarded train before because paying 4000 without a Bleep is costly,

How would a person who failed to construct the Second Niger Bridge as promised become your Hero?

I hope you aware that this train will not pass through the SE?

Tell me, what did you people gain(I mean capital projects) from your Hero apart from few appointment?


You just cant quit thinking about the SE?

All you've written above (while true) doesn't change the fact that these trains were implemented during GEJ's era.

Buhari should focus on his deliverables and what we will point to after his tenure is over.

International Airport at Enugu, Federal University at Ebonyi state, Federal Nursing school at Ebonyi state. Enugu-Abakaliki express-way construction. Appointments, Many more.

At least I named ONE(many) project, tell me one capital project delivered by Buhari, or Obasanjo in the SE?

I take train every time, from IBadan to Abeokuta and most times Lagos.

That train coming from Minna is wack i must confess, only the First class is perfect with A.C in it. Second klass is another thing. The Hausas inside, especially that toilet, they'll defecate and leave it there. Odors! It leaves Minna Monday morning i guess and get to Ibadan on Tuesday evening, that's if it's fast o.

There's another one from Ilorin to Lagos too, that one has no first klass with A.C and limited Hausas in it so it's clean no crowd. That leaves on Wednesdays. (ALL DOWN TRAIN).

(UP TRAINS) mostly Fridays and Sundays.

Train is cool with adventure. 3 Wednesdays ago, the train stopped in the forest in the midnight. Dangerous day of my life grin
Train Ride is cool tho


Don't forget, it's cheap but no perfect timing, be ready to get to your destination in the dark time!

When will they start running trains from Lagos to the Se states? Because that is a very lucrative route, though I'm sure airlines and road transport companies will fight against it.

It was not done by this government o. GEJ did. I know GEJ also did one from somewhere in the East to PH. A Nairalander rode on it and showed it here about two years ago. Because North is so vast, GEJ thought connecting those long distances was crucial. Just like integrated education up North is critical to fight ignorance, poverty & extremism.

It was meant to be in phases: With Benin-Warri-Asaba-Onitsha also in the next phase. Eventually, it would be connected from Benin to Lagos. By the time GEJ was through, you could connect from the East & SS by train to most cities in the West & North.

It seems that will be ditched now.

Even if lies are flying in a supersonic jet, the truth will eventually overtake them. So are APC propaganda and efforts by GEJ government.
