We're thankful that he didn't get in the way and stall the project. However, the idea, the rights-of-way, the contracts, the stations, the tracks sef... all were in motion way before PMB got into office. But still, at least, he saw it to completion... we just want the facts to be known so he and his party of liars won't make it a campaign point, because the previous 3 administrations did 90% of the work.

Kennydoc:


Which project has Buhari initiated for subsequent governments to complete? Which major project has he initiated and carried up to half way?

ayodeji1:
we don't care to know all these. All we care about is that the light rail was commissioned and it's good for the masses. These are ploys by these politicians to further divide us an pull us backward. can common sense senator please focus on what he was elected to do please? what if it was abandoned ?Rubbish

uprightman:
let the truth be said.
Let give honour to whom it due.
Please,answer this simple question. If your parents struggled to send you to secondary school. Because of situation beyond their power prevent them to train you further and your uncle help to university. When you succeed in life will you only praise only your uncle? Knowing that your parents lay the foundation.

Awoo88:

The project was virtually completed. The only remaining work was putting finishing touches to the stations. Besides, how many times will bubu recommissioned this thing.? Or maybe he is looking for pictures to circulate to bmc guys for propaganda

deomelo:




OBJ awarded the contract and paid for the same contract back in 2008, yaradua continued and useless and incompetent Jona rewarded and paid for the same project and couldn't even finish the same project that was started by OBJ in 2008



This is the reason why the crooked, corrupt and incompetent PDP left us zero infrastructures, this is why they saddled us with thousands of abandoned projects all over the country and this is the reason why PMB is finishing up projects left and right. but these Igbos and their PDP masters want us to applaud them for not finishing anything after 16 yers in office while PMB is finishing everything in less than 3 years.


Instead of saying we started and finished, the losers are screaming we started and we started, but never can say we finished we finished.

What a bunch of losers

OgogoroFreak:
You no get sense?

Why enter school if you know you can't graduate? Why start at all, if you know you can't finish it?

I AM NOT A BUHARI OR A JONATHAN SUPPORTER BUT I BELIEVE WHO FINSHED THE JOB SHOULD GET MORE CREDIT.

Wallade:


Brother, don't misunderstand Ben Bruce: GEJ commissioned that project based on Ben Bruce information and from the pictures attached. He only accused the PBM government of commissioning the project again and I agree that it was not necessary to recommission again.

Yes, PMB govt completed the project and we must appreciate PMB administration for that achievement but there was no need to commission it again given that more funds has been wasted on the commissioning yet again.

Kennydoc:


Oga, abeg close your mouth. Which project did Obj pay for? In 2008? Are you for real? Was Obj the president in 2008? Before Jonathan's government, had any ground work commenced on both the Abuja - Kaduna rail and Abuja light rail?
Jonathan paid up for the project. Even Buhari can't do anything about it. It's just like Goodluck Jonathan expressway that cut across Abuja City. Jonathan paid up for the contract and that's why the work is still ongoing now. The only way Buhari can stop it is to revoke the contract.

Talking about projects completed, we remember how many power plants GEJ started and completed. We know how many universities he started and completed. We know how other past administrations set up systems to check curruption including IPPIS and TSA started by Jonathan. Tell us what Buhari has initiated.

Obasanjo’s $8.3b Rail deal unsettles Yar’Adua

The chief co-coordinator of CCECC, Mr. Karl Leo, complained of lack of funds to prosecute the project. Leo said apart from the $250 million mobilization fee paid by government to the Chinese firm in March, last year, it has not received additional funds for the project – the first phase of which was scheduled for completion in 2010.

We know!

We also know that Buhari actually has nothing to offer other than what he's offered- lies and propaganda!

Ovamboland:


Ignorance reloaded.
The Abuja metro is not the same with Abuja-Kaduna rail.
This is how you fail and carry over your school course and claim lecturer is victimizing you

Nogodye:
What if the present government abandone the project? its not howfar but how well.

amaco13:
If Buhari completes second Niger bridge, you guys will still praise Gej abi? shame on you PDP.

deomelo:

OBJ awarded the contract, Yaradua canceled it and $250 million mobilization fee was paid in 2009, so who paid that mobilization fee? Jona traveled back in time to pay that money in 2009?


Everything Jona commissioned was awarded and paid for by OBJ and Nigerians didn't cry and wail, but not these tantrum throwing and petty ipob villagers, they think we should praise and celebrate their abandoned projects other people are finishing.

Newpride:
I said it, they are the real enemies of this nation.

U claimed every achievement on the past administration but fail to also put the blame on them.

Every problem we are facing today in Nigeria were bn caused by the past administration..

Ovamboland:


Ignorance, what alternative infrastructure will serve better

Kennydoc:


You're not smart. Go back and read the article in the link you posted. It was talking about modernization of Lagos to Kano narrow gauge. Does that sound anything like Abuja light rail or Kaduna to Abuja standard gauge?

Also, from what you posted, did Obj pay for the project? Wasn't that what you said initially? Why are you yarning dust?
Okay, Yar' Adua paid $250mn for the project, wasn't Jonathan part of the administration? Wasn't Jonathan the one who held sway from 2009 till he fully took over in 2010 when Yar' Adua died? Can you now see it was Jonathan who paid for it?

Abeg comot, you no know anything.

Awoo88:

You no get sense. The light rail was 90% completed. Some put it at 92% . Pray tell, if a work is about 90% completed, what did buhari do. You bmc guys are looking for campaign material

Nogodye:
What if the present government abandone the project? its not howfar but how well.

lordtosan:
Much as I hate Buhari's administration and the man himself, I think this statement by Ben Bruce is "nationally wrong' and not good for our development. Ben Bruce must be seen as an enemy of the state.

Yes, the past government started it but the project would have been a deserted ruin if this present government had turned it's face away. The man who completes a task deserves the better share of the accolades. And that's what Buhari has done. This statement by Bruce has the potential of discouraging continuity in governance which in turn will stifle development. Lets not allow our party affiliation and political loyalty stagnate our progress.


Goalscorers covert chances created by other players to goals and take much of the glory even though they might not have been involved in the build up play. Yet their names get put in the scorer sheet and they get praised for the goals without which those created chances would have been a total waste.


Thata being said and this notwithstanding,

BUHARI MUST GO!!

Ovamboland:


You are getting the statistics from your forest cave in Isi alangwa. Why not 200% completed, 90 is too small.

deomelo:

The question is, why is PMB commissioning projects that. 16 years of PDP and obj, yaradua, Jona and the largest earnings and wealth in the history of Nigeria couldn't complete?

Funny when lazy, crooked, corrupt and incompetent people litter the country with thousands of abandoned projects and still want to claim credit when they are completed by competent, dedicated and patriotic Nigerians.


You people are just too shameless for your own good.
