It is well.igbo KWENU

This is amazingly good. Eko O'ni Baje.

It is not for Lagos State Government ooo

It was built by our philanthropists (The Developers)

Esejojo:
I must say this is a beautiful project. I hope the can maintain it.

Now, to answer your question. Well, as for me, and looking at the photos, all I see are the building and interlocking tiles.

So, the main cost will be on the building and the interiors. If I was to quote to build this bus terminal, I will quote N100million.

However, any government contractor that wish to win such a contract should also include in his quotes monies for kickbacks and bribes.

So, at the end of the day, such a project might turn out to cost tax payers about N5billion.

This is the very sad reality in Naija.

You can build this place with N100m in Lagos, my friend which other project have you built on such a low budget? N100m will not even complete the main building alone.

World class=No.They are trying. Good job,But not a world class.

Land prospectors will be mad at the waste of valuable land.

It looks nice but which kind bus go dey come here? If na Danfo they build this edifice for, na him be say them don fail.

Do you know what I am bothered about? The ability of the state govt and its agencies, to sustain and maintain this terminal over a long period of time, to the high standards of cleanliness and functionality, shown here.

Such an edifice would soon be launched with fanfare, and even fancier speeches. In 9 months, it would take the grace of God to meet this same terminal, in this pristine state. It is likely to have been defaced, distorted and riddled with all kinds of nauseating activities, that are capable to ruining the purpose it was originally set out to achieve. We need to put more effort into sustaining such projects or terminals, for good optimum performance.

Exactly. The African man mentality of purchasing without maintenance. I never marvel at building projects in this country, the question I also ask is will they be maintained?

Naija politicians no get shame. To launch this capital project now, den go spend nothing less than another 200 milli (it might not cost more than 70 but you already know how things are run) ...Them don already cripple economic activities because den wan use scissors cut ribbon and now some fellow Nigerians who dunno better are jubilant ... If this were how the whole President they carry himself with tumultous crowd, shut down the whole city every time a capital project is to be commissioned in better climes, you think the citizens won't change it for him? Oya, how many times have you heard say one ordinary Mayor carry himself to go and be commissioning road projects or any infrastructural what have you...
Irresponsible loots they call leaders in Nigeria wey dey use ppl's destiny sell akara

Agreed. But that is not just on the state govt to do. The regular people need to imbibe a culture of pride in our commonly shared infrastructure. Everybody must be involved to maintain this project to see that it remains up to standard for a very long time to come.

If this is what "world class" looks like then i must need glasses

Okay,

Can anyone please direct me to the Tender Advert by the Lagos State Public Procurement Agency in respect of this project as required (advertisement in daily newspapers) by the procurement law?

Can anyone direct me to the evaluation of the tender documents?

Does anyone know HOW MUCH this facility cost Lagos State Tax Payers?

But Buhari is coming to commission it and legitimise the fraud ba?

Why is that not surprising! Maybe he has seen the procurement documents....

Fraud = fraud

Can't you people just appreciate something good for once,even if it's done by a man from the Party or tribe you hate
I am sure the only thing of value is that stupid lame phone in your hand,with Airtel free basic mode or something
Why then will you appreciate good things,idiot stop transferring your aggression,hunger and frustration to Ambode,he is not your father. He is not responsible for your dejectable pathetic useless life.

julioralph:
Is that all

Na Governor/Minister suppose commission this thing na... I hope all those NURTW touts wouldn't damage it soon

Bill Gates came here and told the truth, instead of them to listen to good advice, they were grumbling up and down.

Oga Presido stay in Abuja, we no wan see you for Lagos!

I think you should keep your opinion to when he decides to come to Aba or Enugu. For now shut the Bleep up and let the sons of the soil say if they want him in Lagos or not. Which is definitely in the Affirmative.

lol...yet to be fully constructed but everything is fully ready here, naija I dey hail o

who say Lagos is not working? I wish every other governors will follow the footstep of Lagos especially my state abia which happens to be the worst state in Nigeria to me o yet my brothers are shouting biafra when Lagos is working.

If you don't want to pay TAX, OR LAND USE CHARGE


Please LEAVE LAGOS for us

Eko oni Baje!!!!

Still wondering why our constructions always having the black and white painting by the curb

Good structure, but what about maintenance??

I think the government should get innovative with their public structures, they need to build something that will cost less to maintain considering the nature of the citizens.

Lexusgs430:


I wonder where we get our politicians from....... A new law should be enacted, nobody above 52 must contest for any political post.......

We have tried to geriatrics, they have totally failed us...... The youths cannot do no worse.......

I swear down . We need new breeds of politicians with grassroot idealogy . .the other day . I was trying to explain what to be contempt meant.we got nowhere ahaha they could not understand some people are just so happy with so little.thereby eliminating greed

To build world class infrastructure like this is not the problem but to maintain it...

The new Ikeja Bus Terminal, unarguably, is the most ultra-modern bus terminal in Nigeria.

This new transport infrastructure demonstrates yet another brilliance of the Ambode administration.

The Lagos State government developed the Ikeja Bus Terminal as part of the infrastructures for the Lagos Bus Reforms Project.



Upon commissioning, the bus terminus will serve as the hub of all transport activities within the Ikeja Zone.

The Ikeja Bus Terminal was designed to serve over 50,000 passengers daily and providing access to many destinations including Ojota, Oshodi, Maryland, Obalende, Agege, Ogba, CMS, Iyana-Ipaja, etc.



The Ikeja Bus Terminal features facilities befitting of a modern bus terminus. These facilities include Waiting Areas, Ticketing Booth, Loading Bays, Information Centre, Food Court, Taxi Rank, Passenger Convenience, Operations Control Centre and an ATM Gallery amongst many others.

Nigeria’s president, Mohammadu Buhari, is expected to do the official commissioning of the Ikeja bus terminal tomorrow.

So, considering that the land that this bus terminal belongs to the state government, if you were to quote as a contractor to build this imposing and impressive infrastructure, how much would you quote to build it?

So now anyone that opposes Buhari is from the East How foolish of you

Mr son of the soil e kpele o, e ma binu sir

Damming to know that this man will come to commission a bus terminal a president of a federation something a local govt chairman should do. Fun fact... there is public holiday for this thing. How am I Nigerian with these people

That's mesmerising! Now let's get the rail done. It's very important.
I'm worry about Lagos overpopulation in few years. It's going to be extremely exhausting city for the poors even some rich folks wont be left behind.
Get that Lag-Ib rail project done. It's extremely important as well.
The influx of people from rural to urban is crazy these days i can't stand it..
The government need to start working(rural as well) otherwise the urban will be densely congested and Lagos is heading towards that even worse..
Nigeria must progress!

Ttipsy:
soon ll turn to Agbero park.

Nigeria lack maintainance culture

that one is better u will see how they will litter the place and it will be smelling like cleaner Lagos drum..

FabioPeter:
A few metres from this bus terminal is MM2, a terminal for aircrafts. Its by far bigger and trickier to manage but guess what, the moment it was built and commissioned it was concessioned to a private company and its a success story till date. Not only has it been properly maintained, it has also been improved to meet with best practice and standards, it attracts good patronage and in consequence good financial returns to government.

Same should happen with this bus terminal.

MMA2 was built from scratch by Bi-Courtney Aviation Services Limited (BASL), which carried out that project as the country’s first successful Build, Operate and Transfer (BOT) concession, in the aviation sector, after the domestic terminal of the old Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos, went up in flames in 2000. The concession was awarded to BASL which funded the entire project, without govt funding in 2003. That airport opened for operations in 2007.

The story is different from that of the new bus terminal, which was conceived and built with govt funds, using govt agencies and contractors.

Most govt owned buildings and projects are hardly ever well-maintained, due to inadequate funding, poor monitoring skills and poor adherence to maintenance programmes.

So it is really too early to compare the management and operations of MMA2, which was built through a BOT arrangement, (and is currently being managed by a private firm), with the management of this new bus terminal, that is still solely under govt control .

Anyway, I hope they eventually take your advice and concession the bus terminal to an experienced private management firm, to run and maintain for a fixed number of years. I also hope they will not repeat the Visionscape fiasco, when they eventually decide to engage a private company to manage it.
