4 Play: What date, as in month and year the project is scheduled to finish. There was an announcement about a year ago that work is begining and finishing in 2011. The work has still yet to begin, when exactly is the work begining(as one report claimed is still in a drawing board stage), BUT most importantly which month in 2011 is the Project to complete and use commence. We should applaud finishers and not starters that abadon mid position. We love and salute BRF govt nothwithsatnding ambiguity is the mother of confusion, take that away from the statement. |

To think that I supported Obanikoro during the elections makes me feel like Big fool now. Thanks to other Lagosians that voted in this guy. PDP will die a natural death. PDP should not die a natural death so that we can know and identify the FULLTIME BASTARDS among us. BRF fire on. This one na action governor. Action dey go on. |

I congratulate the Governor and his team. Imagine that metroline was supposed to cost 25Million in 1979, was cancelled by the military for reasons best known to them and now the good people of Lagos are to pay 3 billion because of reasons of 'national security'. The time to do this is now, whatever it will cost, the govt should not be deterred otherwise the next generation will be building it at 300 billion. Even if it takes 20 years to complete, the people of that time will enjoy the benefits |

edoyad:Don't make that mistake O! A Lagos that asks even fellow Yoruba people where their ancestral family house is located! That LAGOS dey your birth cert no mean nothing. Have you forgotten so easily the drama that trailed& traced Tinubu's ancestry to another part of Yoruba land? Or the ruckus Senator Mamora faced when he sought the State assembly's post and was reminded he was from Ogun State? Then wonder why 9ja needs to practice[size=18pt] real democracy and true federalism![/size] |

tunnytox:You guys in Oyo State decided to choose an illiterate, so you guys deserve the result of an administration headed by an illiterate, local executive. His aura and demeanor is indicative of his constituents. He was chosen by people from Oyo State, whether through a democratic election or by the legislature. |

wel done to fashola.but like someone rightfully said we are intrested in "finished projects". |
Re: Work Begins On $3bn Lagos Light Rail by ochukoccna: 4:57pm On Dec 29, 2009 |
MUNEER2:Really am! Y? Seeing buffons like him and his ilk north, west, south, east ruining the greatness that 9ja could show not only the black race but the world. Why I no go vex when all they think leadership to be is drinking green bottle brew, sipping pepper soup and having state house hoes by your beck and call because of the worthless title 'Governor' attached to the name plate on their doors? In other words, amala politics. |

Starting is not the problem but finishing. I hope this would not go down soon as a dream that was never achieved. |

Princek12:yEP JUST LIKE yARADUA was chosen by Nigerians like you as your post below indicates You guys in nIGERIA decided to choose a GRADUATE PRESIDENT, so you guys deserve the result of an administration headed by an SICKLY PROVINCIAL executive. His aura and demeanor is indicative of his constituents. He was chosen by people from NIGERIA, whether through a democratic election or by the legislature! [size=23pt]Can you give yourself a break and be real for once in your life?[/size] |
Re: Work Begins On $3bn Lagos Light Rail by Nobody: 5:15pm On Dec 29, 2009 |
Atleast we can Hear a Good News from Nigeria after all this while that news of Yaradua have 1 Kidney, yaradua collapsed, Maryam is faint, Jonathan spend 100 Billons on Accomodation etc have dominated the atmosphere. We can hear of a development that will affects life of a common man coming our ways Thumb up fashola |
Re: Work Begins On $3bn Lagos Light Rail by Princek12(m): 5:18pm On Dec 29, 2009 |
ochukoccna:You are comparing a local election to a national election. Local elections are more closely monitored by the people of the state and the legislature. National elections, on the other hand, are difficult to monitor in Nigeria and are subject to the population differences which vary from region to region. These differences are also based along religious lines. Also Nigerian citizens from the outset vehemently and unequivocally rejected the nomination and election of Yaradua. People of Oyo State, on the other hand, have revered Alao Akala as their favorite son, and there is no statewide, majority consensus condemning Alao Akala's administration. |

Tinubu and Fashola's achievements are examples of what naija can gain when we learn to understand the power of the ruled and not that the rulers. |
Re: Work Begins On $3bn Lagos Light Rail by Nobody: 5:49pm On Dec 29, 2009 |
XKZ:I am very much interested in how LAMATA arrived at that figure. Mind you the LU is used by all and sundry, . . .and I mean ALL. I'm sure you and I know those who'll hugely patronise this mode of transportation in Lagos. |
Re: Work Begins On $3bn Lagos Light Rail by edoyad(m): 5:56pm On Dec 29, 2009 |
On National Geographic they said Lagos could have a population of 15mil, would the transit system of 1mil suffice at all ? |
