Work on Lagos-Ibadan rail begins April 14 – NRC source: http://www.eyesoflagos.com/2017/04/work-on-lagos-ibadan-rail-begins-april.html The Nigeria Railway Corporation (NRC) says that the construction of the Lagos-Ibadan standard gauge rail would begin on April 14. The Managing Director of NRC, Mr Fidet Okhiria, disclosed this on Wednesday in Lagos. Okhiria advised those who had encroached on the NRC land to start packing their belongings, to avoid their property being destroyed by bulldozers. “Those that are due for compensation will be compensated because it is part of the contract. “But those who encroached on the land have to leave the premises as soon as possible because the constructions will begin on Friday. “We intentionally did not give permits to so many people because we know that one day, the land will be required. “So we have already mapped out those places we need to remove and they are aware. We have told them to remove their valuables before the bulldozers start work,’’ he said. The MD said the projects would bring lots of socio-economic development to communities and major town along the axis. According to him, the NRC will deliver consistent services that will attract lots of commercial and social activities that will serve as employment to the teeming youths of the various communities. The standard gauge is going to have two stations along the axis; we will have stations in Omin Adio and Moniya in Ibadan. “The project will bring a lot of developments to the communities and improve the standard of living of people in the area,’’ Okhiria said. The NRC boss also appealed to indigenes of the various communities to cooperate with the construction workers in the course of their duties. He advised the people to give adequate support to workers, whenever the work gets to their villages. Okhiria advised the people to have positive minds towards the projects, adding that government was determined to improve rail services in the country to international standard. 9 Likes 1 Share

I'm so excited about this project. Regional Integration looks set. Lagos, Ogun and Oyo will benefit the most from this and to a lesser extent Ekiti, Osun, and Ondo The next thing we need now is a seaport in Ondo. I'm looking forward to what Aketi has to offer We don't need to make noise, carry placards, play victim, or emotionally blackmail the govt to get what we want. The benefits from this project alone are immeasurable. For those who have land between that Lagos-Ibadan route, congrats!!! As for those from the land of the rising mark nsukabags, congrats too ooo . I heard Jona built hyperloop routes in your region Just last week, a friend was telling me the trains between Nkpor and Onitsha are the fastest in the world I take God beg una, we don't want y'all to develop Ibadan for us oo. We'll do that ourselves Before anyone catches hiccups cos of my post, remember I dinor kuku call anybody's name 62 Likes 5 Shares |

wow, this will bring awesome development to both states. I hope it will be all those super trains though. Nice development. It will ease a lot of traffic off the Lagos Ibdan express, It will create jobs, it will reduce cost of production and transport. And the economic benefits will be amazing.

How best can someone describe this inept government? A government characterized with much talk with little or no work. And are we talking of the same road which reconstruction started during GEJ but was abandoned for a long time for lame reasons only tenable to zombies? |
