Malus are now important than Humans.

I don't agree with Amaechi, because the herdsmen should be sensitized to recognize railway tracks and avoid them. But politics aside bro, the normal Fulani herdsmen(not the terrorists) are humans too. Their Cattle are the only means of livelihood they have, so killing cattle, to them, is like destroying our shops or retrenching staff, we also react emotionally to these things. What if Amaechi had said, we don't want people to lose jobs, or we don't want to destroy shops, would you have responded the same way?

Nigeria's minister for Transport, Rotimi Amaechi has revealed that the Abuja-Kaduna rail line cannot run faster than 90Km/hr because the ministry does not want locomotives to kill cows.

PoliticsNGR learned that Amaechi made this comment while speaking on the complications the Nigerian government faces while making concessions.

He broke down the various problems being faced by the Country's rail system adding that Nigeria has more than enough to transport via rail.

In his words;

"The reason why we want to go back to narrow gauge is because between Lagos and Kano, we have 30 million tonnes of cargo. Even if you do three rail lines, it cannot be enough.

It took us 14 days to move coaches from Lagos to Abuja; everyday we go and ask, how far, they say we are near Ogun state… 14 days.

But if it were rail, the same day, it will get to Abuja. The kind of construction we are doing is 120 kilometers per hour (Km/h), it is a speed train.

We are doing 90km/h with Abuja to Kaduna, the reason we are doing 90km/h is because there are cows everywhere, and we don’t want to kill cows. The other day they tried 100 and they killed how many cows, and they said ‘you people should replace the cows you killed.

From that day, I have said let us maintain the 90km/h; at 120km/h you get to Kaduna in one hour. You can work in Kaduna and live in Abuja. It was initially one, but now, we have done four locomotives with 14 coaches."

AMAECHI THE NORTHERN ASS LICKER!

You failed to complete the Port Harcourt Monorail project and you are busy spending Niger delta crude oil money building treasures for ungrateful fulani jihadist.

U want the train to move at 200kmph and kill as many cows as possible, lets say the train is in south east, moving at 200kmph and killing pigs, you'll say buhari is a dullard and inhumane president who is killing innocent animals.

No point arguing with you
VULCAN:
It's a shame that people like you exist, but God allows all types.

Did Amaechi say the reason for reduction of speed was to prevent human deaths?

No he did not.

He actually told the truth. It's about cows.

Now just because you are a Buharideen and APC worshipper you are telling someone to shut up because they responded to the implication of the man's statement.

And your basis for that is something which you conjured from the thin air.

I wonder how all of you creatures will survive when Buhari's time in power comes to an end next year?

Mr. Brain, the fact remains that Buhari value cows more than human life, it’s cow first, his family second, his party members third, Nigerian last on the list, by the way I am not from the south east and I am from Ofin in Sagamu

Why can't we afford barriers?
Rails could actually be designed with barriers at major flash points in the construction stage.

If you killed many cows at 100km/hr, you will still kill at 90. I believe you have to move much slower to avoid killing any animal. Which is not OK for commuting

shut up already Mr man, reducing the speed doesn't only apply to prevent killings of cows, it will also prevent accidents, if a train hit a lot of cows don't you know the train might run of track and cause a very bad accident to the passengers?

Bloggers will also come with headline for gullies like you lot to feed it, start using your head instead of anus and free your mind from hate

Must they graze on railway tracks
This is 2018 for goodness sake.
At a time when hovertrains are trending, u are still talking about reducing speed.

Excuse me sir, if the train is moving at 90km/hr, won't they be able to kill cows?

I also know that in the other parts of the country, if the government wants to construct roads, bridges and the rest, they care less about whether a market or shop or even house is on the path. They might settle them after bulldozing it, that is if there is necessary documents.
Are the economic means of these people of less importance than than that of the cattle rearers or are the cattle more legitimate to be found on rail tracks?

It is better to educate the rearers to manage their cattle off the tracks. It sounds somehow saying, we can't do this because of cows; we can't do that because of cows.
