Mr. Globe:
what a waste of funds. I Railway from Lagos to Ibadan cave. how economic viable is it? I see China has some funds to throw away here and there in Nigeria

hercules07:

Would it have been better if it was between Enugu and onitsha? Jealousy will not kill you guys.

Mr. Globe:

lol... jealousy at a project that will probably be completed in 2050. Bottom line is the project is not economically viable and thus a waste of funds

seunfly:

I don't think thare is any other route in west Africa that can be viable as Lagos route, if federal government can be thinking of expanding the route along agege-cms and state government is constructing about three light rail in ppp arangment, what will make the most busy road in Nigeria(Lagos/Ibadan road) not economical viable? I see pull them down syndrom in you

Kobojunkie: Lagos and Ibadan alone go cost this much? 1000 per trip? Sigh!!!

Fingers are crossed. . . . please no more 1970's locomotives . . . . for that mount, we ought to get high speed and nothing less especially since the distance from lagos to ibadan is about 200 miles. And the 2050 date is out of this world.

omiobo:

What technique did u use to appraise the project that makes you think it's not economically viable? I must say this is symptom of bad belle.

fstranger: Swag?


What a person!


Only a poster who is more obtuse that Ileke-idi would call a $1.4 billion white elephant project "swag."



### Re/tard!

ekt_bear: the pain and angst this project seems to be causing some people makes it all the more sweet

Mavor: it would have been economically viable to link lagos to the east via cargo and pedestrian rail. Lagos to Ibadan for $1.4B You chop I chop.

blink182: Mumu shut up your mouth. When you are ignorant abou t something, ask.

What this means is that the population of Lagos can now conveniently spill into Ibadan, figure the rest for yourself.

edoyad:

I'd say even Africa, imagine the amount of people that could leave in Ibd and work in Lag.
