It was the first Monorail transit in Africa! It was the first demonstration of intracity rail system in Nigeria.

Even though the Calabar mono rail does not run through the main city itself and is only 2.5 kilometers between the Calabar International Convention center and Tinapa Resort, it offers a glimpse into what Nigeria's intracity public transit can be.

It shows that Nigerian cities are capable of building efficient public transportation systems and urban city planning .

OK.

jjhnja44es:
That's because Nigerian cities are unplanned. The current Calabar mono rail was built to run between Tinapa Resort and the Convention center.
To have a viable public transit system,you have a good city plan and zoning laws . The transit system must be built to move people between very busy routes that thousands of people move to and from everyday.
For example ,a major avenue which runs for miles and has major attractions like museum,stadium,university ,Malls ,embassy, Cinema ,Hotels, Casinos ,restaurants ,banks , company headquarters , etc Thousands of people can not do without moving to and from that route everyday.

It's impossible to have efficient transit system with Nigeria's unplanned cities where everything is just scattered everywhere.

very true. just like India, we need to build new cities and let the old ones die. but money is the problem.

Nigeria gat no plan, must cities has no road. Everything na jst scatter scatter everywhere.

Subway is more like it.
