I don't really know why Nigerian government can never look at the big picture. They will rather spend billions to resuscitate an outdated locomotives like GEJ have done than trying to add more money to those billions and deliver a world class facilities like what we see in South Africa. Who in their right mind uses locomotives when they can easily upgrade to something more standard!

Before you deliver world class facility you have yo have world class thinking

So do we have already stated that speed rails need electricity and this dude is trying to rectify electricity that obasanjo missed

tonychristopher:


Bro stop making a mince meat of Urself here ..development comes in phases

We have Abuja Kano rail also and we have the one that links Lagos and Ogun

What do you really want

What the hell is damn wrong with people

I think the poster that quoted me earlier does not agree with you. he thinks there's nothing the government can do about it since that's how the British left it.

robosky02:



haters will always have a way of seeing the negative

if GEJ put plastic chair you'll say its cushion they use abroad

now we have a cushion here were you can seat for more than a hour without pain to your ass
yet they are asking for pastic


na waooo


abeg God pass devil oh

Don't mind him

At least I have been abroad ..the plastic chairs are for inter city trains but inter state and inter country rails use cushion chairs like the ones you get in planes

They are negative thinkers ..I think the train is on point

Do you know that they burn a train here in Ogun state just that they increased a fair from Abeokuta to Lagos

They won't pay for the train but these people criticise

They will hang on the train instead of paying

I know them . They don't appreciate good things

kahanma:


My friend shut the f***k up and learn to appreciate your own thing. That same locomotive trains are what great Russians are still using for interstate transportation.
Criticise logically before I start looking for your a$$$..

You are a typical pdp and jeg fan we are not in the same class young man.

How

I know that developement comes in phases and before you site a train station you look at economic viability of the area

It is only a crazy government that will site a train station at ilesan neglating sagamu

Its just economics of the routes

These dudes don't just think

He's spent 6 years in office but he's yet to better Obj achievements in electricity despite all the noise about some useless privatisations. Nigerians are yet to feel the impact

Can you tell me your yardstick for measurement or comparison

Can you tell me your yardstick for measurement or comparison

If you live in Nigeria or have relations that live in Nigeria, you won't need any yardstick. Evidences will stare you in the face

So basic literacy is your problem?
Or you didn't read the part of my post where is mentioned that there is currently an ongoing standard gauge rail project which will link Lagos with the entire South East and Niger Delta? Of course how will you know any of this? People like you don't follow news, don't keep up with ccurrent affairs, don't know that the Chinese PM signed the $13.1bn rail construction deal with President Jonathan during the WEF in Abuja. You won't know what Owerri is one of the cities to be linked by that standard gauge line which is much faster than this newly refurbished narrow gauge line.

All you know how to do is come on Nairaland and yarn opaks all day long about "our leaders" as if you're any better than them

Clueless mofo. Abeg don't even quote me. Your IQ is too low.

Look at his post history and stop wasting your time.

You're exchanging precious kb with an internet troll.

What evidence ...I am on ground

Give me parameters for comparison

Afam4eva:
It's imperative to note that you have to be going from Port hacourt to Enugu or anywhere else to use that plane. If you live in Owerri, you have to take a bus back to PH to board the train. Sometimes, our leaders just reason in reverse. It's obvious this project is a perception one. One that we're supposed to see pictures such as this and say "WOW, this is pretty good". A project becomes a project when it touches at least 50% of the population not when a sprinkle of people make use of it. I want to see these trains constantly in every city in the country to applaud. Until, then i'll have to sit on my hand.

Thats not true bro.
There are train stations along the route.One of them is imo river station.

Lastly...the last time i entered a train was in 1988 from Kaduna to Enugu.
Just take your time to read about the 6 years and 25 years railway master plan for Nigeria and you will see that its on point.

Can't believe u of all people will make such comment above!
Development starts from somewhere first before it spreads.
Must everything be criticized even when it is laudable?

Awesome. God continue to bless President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. God bless Nigeria.

Even China uses the west as a standard... Stop commenting rubbish...

sorry bro u are messing up
look at the Asian market now the tech advancement..look at the engineering brilliance of China ..the creativity of the Japanese in making fuel efficient vehicles..the internet revolution in southkorea..a country that has one of the world fastest internet speed ....many more...in d areas of military hardware,Asian countries are making fighter jet that can compete and also cheaper to western ones...even the likes of apple are facing tough task of competing with Asian producers

Boss,
I think they use plastic chaira for journeys of about 10mins to 1hrs.
Anything more is 'cushined' for comfort.

cjrane:
I just feel uncomfortable with the cushion chairs in our train. Even though they are great now, i wonder how long they will last.

If you noticed, trains abroad have plastic seats, so that they can be easily cleaned out, even if someone vomits on it.

Anyhow, i thank our working President GEJ for providing Nigerians a functional train. Something the others simply failed to do.

GEJ doing well but his enemies are too blinded to see it

Tech is about trial and error... They copy Americans that's the reason for their tech boom.

They put their own ideas into what they copy.

That's when u get it wrong. I don't belong to any of them. If you wanna criticise, make it with some logical facts and not what you heard from someone alright. Be modernise with your argument.

Thank you @Collynzo9 I asked the question for d sake of been informed. While one @wheredemdey made some not to good comment to answer just a question. How did we get to this stage. smh
