well, i chose this subject cos in 21st century Nigeria, we don't do carts and horses, we do trailers, thanks to the "killed" rail service section of out transport industry. the BRT has come, stalled and gearing up for a comeback! anyone who drives down ikorodu road wouldn't but notice the death barriers that are being used to line the roads. The BRT scheme though laudable is yet another confirmation of the useless nature of our leaders. every one of them wants to immortalize themselves by force. for example, i really don't see any reason for the commissioning of the MMA2 in lagos by obasanjo when the so called airport wouldn't be ready for use in anutha 7-8 months.A road map should have been drawn up to diversify our overdependence on the roads by expanding and creating new alternative linkage routes, revamping the rail system not to service the whole Lagos state like the underground in London but to cater for specific realistically profitable routes and the development of waterways. after all these have been put in place, BRT should be able to achieve its objectives better than what we have now. , I'm waiting to see how the ikorodu road plan unfolds and earnestly waiting for the project to be dubbed IKORODU 2007 by the outgoing/incoming government, cos really they are the same ain't it?
