People rode trains initially to finally get the feeling. Who would want to spend almost the whole day riding a train? Like the PH to Enugu-PH that takes more than 8hours to get to your destination 2 Likes |

At least the revenue is up for both cargo and passenger rail. I dont see why cargo rail is dropping by 20% considering how bad roads are. That should be explained and remedied. Its weird passager traffic generates more revenue than cargo. I heard its the opposite in most countries. The government also subsidizes passengers rail tickets. What does other income consist off and why is crashing 70%? 3 Likes 1 Share |

Paperwhite: What do you mean? They're making more revenue despite the dips. The high point in cargo traffic was in 2011 but they're not far off. Passenger traffic still 1 million below it peak in 2014. The government is making more revenue than those periods. My only issues are ticket subsidies and double digit drop in cargo traffic. 1 Like 1 Share |

Paperwhite: This one is in pains. The rail lines are not film tricks. Anyone and everyone can see them. It is your prerogative how you wish to travel. In any case, I thought it was always being published that the entire Kaduna are avoiding the roads and hopping on the train to Abuja. How come the volume is lower today? 1 Like |

I think the ticket sales guys found a way to cheat the system, the government should pay some attention to them especially the cargo part because the roads are still very bad and I believe the rail is a better option so why the drop in "recorded" sales? 1 Like |

I can say for a fact that this data is a lie and clear reflection of the corruption going on in the rail way sector. You need to see people traveling from Abuja to kd daily by train especially after the issue of kidnapping started on that road. More coaches have been added, more trips per day etc. |
