The North is far bigger in land mass & population than the South.
It has the highest number of states & local governments.
The North has some of the most powerful governors, senators, federal appointees, politicians both serving & retired in Nigeria.
The North also has the richest men & biggest captains of industry in Nigeria.
It has the highest number of military Generals both serving & retired.
The North equally has its fair share of reknown & accomplished academics in Nigeria & abroad in foreign universities.

It was at this line I realised you were a comedian...

I have worked abroad in both the US, Europe and Asia in finance. Across financial modelling, software engineering and trading. I am yet to meet a Northerner working in any gainful employment in these sectors.. I have met many a Yoruba or Igbo, but not one person from the North.. Mtchew lies..

Could you Imagine no Single new rail in any of the Niger Deltan States where the country's major revenue is generated and nobody cares to ask.

Keep watching Aboki enjoying your Oil money while the Oil spillage continue to destroy your land and Aquatic life.

North is affecting the Country negatively but they benefit more infrastructure and employment more than any region.

It makes really no Sense from an economic point of view for a broke country with Nigeria

Spending billions for a rail that would contribute less than $100 million a year to our GDP

But investing $4 billion dollars to our transmission line that's controlled by the federal government would push our transmission capability to around 12,000MW and since we already have that installed capacity ...power generation n production would average around 10,000mw this would double our current state

Benefits millions far more than rail

Contribute over $50 billion to our GDP

Don’t you think security issues should be addressed as a priority before transmission energy? More railway means less vehicular movements and more accidents free highways, and it’ll repress roadside terrorism too.

This epistle by Garba shehu is hilarious

Lol tou are making fun of your lies and deceit useless bigot hate will kill you

You guys are only good at going abroad via illegal routes and also engaging in criminal acts.... nothing more!

Yahoo, fraud and drug pushing...thats where you excel in...

Unlike the north tjat have always been successful, truthful honest and sincere...

Today the dep UN sec gen is a Muslim, fulani northern woman....

Shame on you criminals

Well,not suprised. Fulani and Yoruba are one, so the overbloated railway is meant to tie the two together

Why are you foaming in the mouth? Did you think the North would continue ruling after Buhari?
All the riches you refer to were stolen from the South.
You must have been dreaming of somehow preventing the owners of the wealth from ruling the country next, believing you can continue cheating them with your fake population.
The South has laid down the gauntlet. Southern president or herd your cattle in peace in the North by yourselves.
We don't care about your population. Last last you will rule yourselves in a VERY MUCH POORER North with your population.
Yes, I know you murderous people are also thinking of murdering the 100million people in the South and taking over their lands if they don't give in. But be sure we will get guns from the Christian world. The US will never allow you murder that number of Christians without fighting back and giving our military guns and aircraft when the war starts. We have the sea and we will sell our oil ourselves in exchange for weapons.
So, bring it on, you uncircumcised son of a philistine. If not the foolish Azikiwe who partnered with the North instead of the West, would you have mouth to talk anyhow to your betters, you 10-over-300-scoring-quota-system dimwit?

It has reknown religious scholars & fiery clerics as well as its fair share of unrepentant religious fundamentalists, radicals, hoodlums, criminals & terrorists.
Inspite of all these, watch that whatever positions are zoned to them come 2023, they will choose, present & support their candidate seamlessly with less or no friction, rancour, dirty fight in public or the pages of newspapers & without assassinating each other. They understand politics & leadership. It's no coincidence therefore, that they have what they have. Islam is what regulates them and make them peaceful and never care to address the dirty lies, slander and insults from southerners online.
But you see this presidency of Nigeria Southerners are threatening everybody that they must have come 2023;
this 2023 presidency useless Southern governors & politicians are galivanting up & down insisting they must have -- governors & politicians whose only idea of governance is to issue press statements every month on Fulani herdsmen, cattle grazing & 2023 presidency to distract their gullible state citizens from the resources & allocations of their states they have stolen with nothing to show for it;
you will see how these Southern governors & greedy power drunk Southern politicians will kill & destroy each other just to pick & present one presidential candidate.
Watch how they will burn down the South with insecurity on the eve of 2023 as all these militias, unknown gunmen, Amotekun, Ebube Agu, ESN, OPC, Cult gangs, the various states police & vigilantes in the South will get new sponsors in these Southern governors & politicians as well as new sophisticated weapons from them as they jostle to eliminate each other & weaken the political base of their opponents to be able to pick the presidential ticket for themselves.
The sad shame however is that after destroying themselves, The Southern homeland, wasting the resources of Southern states & the lives of Southern misguided youths just to pick a presidential ticket, they will still turn back & blame the North for the destruction their unbridled greed for power for selfish ends brought on the South.
You see this Southern presidential agitations...
Well, enough said already!

Truth is people would still use roads because this high speed trains are very expensive and can't even repay themselves in 100 years time even

Don't u think more job creation would tackle the root cause of insecurities ?

Go and act!
The North fed so long because it was in the interest of the West (UK, Europe) to keep them in power while stealing from the South (Shell, Exxon) and despoiling the environment.
Well, even the West is having enough of your murderous nature and the benefits don't meet up with the cost of backing your murderous tribe.
This is the end:
Either South gets presidency and the country is restructured properly (meaning no foolish Northerner running the Navy and the ports when they have no ocean) or the North tries and the country breaks up , meaning no more free oil for the North.
Either way we have reached a juncture of no-return.
Enjoy the few more months of power and watch the South in action.

Nothing but creating bandits with more business and blood shed. how do someone in his senses ignored deadly insecurity across those rails and choose to think as if nothing is happening in north. whoever that travel through those tracks are doing so on his or her own risks.

What about Niger delta where the money is coming from?

A major problem the South has is how it underestimates the North. Their minders have led a majority of them to believe that the northerner is an unschooled slowpoke who only progresses through connections. Despite northerners that became billionaires by dint of hard work, intellectuals that have pushed the frontiers of scholarship, leaders that have provided impeccable administrations to great applause and politicians that rose like the colossus to dominate their environments, the average southerner still gets bamboozled – and envious – by the way the northerner dictates what goes where.
But a pertinent question to ask is, why do people kick against federal character yet want a position zoned, rotated or surrendered to them? If they are as intelligent and educated as they think they are, then they should know that politics is all about bridge-building, consensus and give and take.
However, in their confusion, despite their belief in the superiority of their intelligence, they take Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho as heroes. Some even believe they are comparable to Sheikh Gumi. A Methodist Bishop ridiculously said that he will stand by Kanu as long as “northerners stand by Pantami and Gumi”. A known southern columnist, too, wrote on how Kanu and Igboho were arrested while Gumi “had a slap on the wrist.”
What they refuse to accept is the fact that Kanu is a terrorist in the class of Shekau. A fugitive from justice having jumped bail while standing trial in a court of competent jurisdiction. He instigated people to kill through electronic messages the way Shekau did. He calls for the Balkanisation of the country. Perhaps being a second-class British citizen, he sees Nigeria as a “zoo” and Nigerians as animals. His gullible followers, Nigerians through and through, accept being animals in a country that is a zoo.
Maybe because most of his followers are those frustrated with their lives, they find solace in living in utopia. They claim they are Jews. Laughable as it was, with no historical or biological evidence to support the phantasmagoric claim, the real Jews did a DNA test to confirm their Jewishness that it is false.

What doesn’t make sense is when your governor builds airport as edifices spending billions of Naira without any commiserate air traffic. The Kano-Kaduna line will even generate more traffic than the Kaduna-Abuja line which currently is always full of riders thereby providing needed mode of transportation while generating revenue

The $ 16 billions of dollars that was invested by the government of PDP when Obj was in power has yielded minus $ 100 million dollars to our GDP. That's why we have - 6000 mw of electricity, wailing wailer. Too much knowledge will not kill you Issac newton of arochukwu village.
That god you guys have graduated from Gej the clueless one started it, to acknowledging the fact GMB took loans to start & complete it.

I put it to you that it is the North that underestimates the South.
You call Southerners criminals while you steal the oil and gas on their land that would have made them prosperous and entrepreneurs.
You force them into fraud and drug trading and mule-ship while filling NNPC with your dull graduates. Little wonder NNPC is a dull cesspool of zero accomplishments.
You now turn around and call them criminals. The real fools are the Southerners who are not calling for secession.

The people that want the zoning know that the system was corrupted by the British and they have to grab power first before making changes to the system. However they are shortsighted because they do not understand that the system has external backers who use it to keep the black race down. If the dullest and most brutal people (North) keep ruling, Nigeria will never grow.
Everyone has seen now that handing power to the conservative North means retrogression.
Power is coming down South. Or we disintegrate the fraudulent contraption.

They feel that alone will turn their corner of the country into Dubai and New York but as good as the initiative is, they are drowning the nation in debt just to achieve what really? infrastructure like these are built by nations whose economy is growing and have the resources to do so...........when you are broke you do not go on an endless spending spree of other people's money, you will only end up being 10 times more broke.................when you are broke you cut spending......and when you do borrow let it be an investment in yourself.....acquiring new sellable skills........why are we not borrowing to churn out the thousands of graduates in emerging tech like electronic vehicles, lithium battery manufacturing or solid sate battery manufacturing.....alternative energy production etc.....

Job creation would be a saving grace to the nation, but pointing to that angle, there are several developed countries with a level of unemployment rate that are very safe in sense of violence and crisis, don’t you think insecurity in the nation so far has been an interesting chess game? I mean look at Botswana, Ghana, Tanzania, and the rest of these not so poor economy African countries, what then are their unemployed youths doing since they aren’t up jeopardizing their economy with insecurity?

Above all the president of Nigeria today and tomorrow is Muhammadu Buhari....all the fetish list you paste must bow in respect and reverence to Buhari


And again we have a Hausa fulani...a lady for that matter that have attained the Pinnacle of success in life where none of your like will ever attain it.....never

Deputy secretary of the United nation....the second highest office on earth

To make mention of northers that have succed in the diaspora to me is too childish because the list is endless....ppl like Jelani Aliyu...u r a witness...

How i wish you can provide me with the list of drug pushers and yahoo boys that your region have produced and defame the image of Nigeria.....

Can you please? Lol

Useless dumb hellbound creature

No sense of fairness in Nigerians at all.
They think their fake population means they can dominate others.
Left to me, no need to be in the same country with these jihadist fools.
Southern Nigeria should break away and MB will follow (who wants to suffer). Leave the foolish core North and their almajiris and Boko Haram and bandits to live in their Arewa Islamic Caliphate.
Nonsense.

100% or this country will split and the North will collapse into poverty..

Hate him or love him! Amaechi is giving a good account of himself in that Transport Ministry.

It was at this line I realised you were a comedian...

I have worked abroad in both the US, Europe and Asia in finance. Across financial modelling, software engineering and trading. I am yet to meet a Northerner working in any gainful employment in these sectors.. I have met many a Yoruba or Igbo, but not one person from the North.. Mtchew lies..

Making impacts in Europe or Building wealth in Asia or rendering civil services to US does not affect the economy of Nigeria, Reread that.
