This is a wonderful development. It is long overdue considering the onerous transit from medina to mecca. Imagine this train will convey 5421 passengers per trip.

I wonder, while these politicians go on these hajj don't they see all these tech advancements, and what their greed has cost this country.

rather they cone back and propose useless and archaic practices such as RUGA and old fashioned nomadism.

Did they see cows on the streets, beaches , airports, schools there ?

but their greed and land grabbing agenda wouldn't let them see all that.

nonsense and ruga

Until when the northerners agree that infrastructure, is the key and only way to development as southerners see and wants it or,nothing will happen in the next 100 years to come.

Gentlewarrior1:
Northerners should learn to emulate the positive aspect if this people

They prefer their almajiri system.
What you clamour for is impossible as long as they support illiterates like barawo bubu who does not promote eductaion for everyone.
It can't happen.

Some of these people are still again western modernization. Why using this high speed facility for hajj?

Western education is sin...

Without that, will there be anything like this?...

Please tell the extremists...they should lay down their guns and embrace true Islam.

What happened to camel and horse or even legs? I though western education is 'Haram'

Boko haram is the ideology of Nigerian extremists, apart from Nigeria where have u ever heard schooling is haram?
Checkout Iran, Iraq, and other core muslim nations they are doing great in the field of technology,
the crisis they face is leadership oriented not anti education crisis.

Please nobody should advise the government of the day in Nigeria to embark on this kind of outlandish project it will trigger severe backlash nobody wants to get on the wrong side of the peaceful herdsmen by killing their cows crossing the rail tracks afteral the cows sustains our economy.

Infrastructure without education is a key to a rotten development.

If barawo bubu did not cancel the one for Lagos due to ethnic bigotry and jealousy, we would have had less congestion in Lagos.

Thankfully Jonathan did for Abuja in five years.

I was about to ask same thing. Too many hypocrites on earth. Western influence is Haram, and yet they are depending on it. African Muslims are different from White Muslims it seems.

If you watch Saudi is not been presided by a Cattle rearer it is been headed by a an educated and exposed young man.
The Law of nature states that you can not give what you don't have.
So anybody waiting for Buhari to do wonders is only mad.

Hello Auto Josh, Please how do you add an image inside posts now on Nairaland? I'm having issues doing it now.

Automotive1:


For the first time in history, High-speed rail services was available to millions of muslim pilgrims who made their journey between the two Holy cities of Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia.

The ₦2.8 trillion (£6 billion) Haramain High-Speed Rail (HHR) service, launched after the 2018 Hajj pilgrimage, runs between Mecca and Medina, and passes through three stations: Jeddah, King Abdul Aziz International Airport and King Abdullah Economic City in Rabigh.



The high-speed trains are designed to travel at 300 kilometers per hour (186 mph) on electrified rails. It can cover the distance between the two Holy cities in just two hours, a road trip between the cities can take 5 hours during the normal period and 10 hours during Hajj.



There are 35 trains, each with 13 cars and 417 seats in two classes -- business and economy. The Haramain High-Speed Rail (HHR) line can manage about 60 million passengers a year. 

The hajj, one of the five pillars of Islam, is one of the world’s largest religious gatherings. This year officially drew 2.49 million pilgrims to Islam’s holiest sites in Saudi Arabia.

Pellow kwantrimen. Western education is haram.
Nonsense and ingredients. Saudi using their oil to buy technology. Nigeria using their oil to marry 5 wives, sponsor extremists, land grabbing, bokoharam, Training Fulani militia in Sudan etc

What do I know. But western education is haram.

They use sunglasses so can't see.

crafteck:
If e dey naija, I go live close to railway and line to tap current, no more nepa bills, I will use ac all day

Why are you thinking like that?
How can you be tapping electricity when you already have electricity in your apartment!?

That's just the Nigeria mentality.

Restrict yourself to what you know.
Islamic extremists are against western education especially for girls everywhere and not just in our country.
Have you heard about Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani girl who was shot by Taliban because she was campaigning against their decision to lock girls out of schools?

After 3 Years Under ISIS, Mosul's Children Go Back To School

October 9, 2017

"None of us went to school when ISIS was here — we stayed at home," says Ali, who is in sixth grade. "It feels good to be back."

ISIS sent government teachers home and ran its own schools — focused on religion and weapons training. Even basic math had a militaristic twist, using the image of bullets to teach children to count.

I take it that you are allergic to knowledge and have a distaste for information and a phobia for wisdom. Is that correct
If you are stuck with lamentation, please keep it to yourself. I am not interested in sharing it with you. Thanks but no thanks.

Are you okay?
