You should know the difference between what you are used to from the past.

It's not by the looks, it's by the engines. Go rest abeg

Well, even if it's not 100% , i am proud of what this government especially Minister of transport is achieving so far

This administration is probably not going to take the glory for this beauty , but it will forever be in the history books , the investment alone is making some engineers very rich , transport / shipping companies are getting richer , the ones who complain all the time are idiots who sit behind computer all day just to complain

Nigeria will be great again , but it will have to start somewhere and THIS IS SOMEWHERE !!!

The ones scammed by the enchanter OP with his paparazzi 3D models aren’t idiots

Biodun556:
We thank almighty God for this.

May God in His mercy help us solve the insecurity problems in Nigeria.

You thank God for the free Lagos-Abeokuta train rides since February last year or for what are you thanking God

Thanks.

They're building the railway lines to help the igbos transport their goods easier

Since Dangote is not Igbo, he continues to buy trucks for killing more southerners and blocking traffic in Lagos.
Is Dangote saying that Amaechi and his enchanter OP are bloody liars

Thanks for describing your anguish at being exposed for the propagandist that you are.
So sorry for your loss!!!

Well said! The president will not make Nigeria great but the Nigerian people who chose to live above tribal, religious and political differences.

I am a very proud Nigerian. Let make Nigeria great again!

Why not STFU If you have nothing reasonable to contribute to such a good and positive news like this!

When it’s complete you lemme know..

Next please!!

If they are grumbling, just show them some pictures.

You don carry ur own come

This is a welcome development,

Transport Infrastructure is very important to the transportation of trade and commerce within cities or towns.

Bearing in mind how precarious and dangeroud Lagos Ibadan expressway is.

Just jump on the train and in 1 hour you are in Ibadan

Im so excited for this.

Very smart entreprenouers would start looking for land now around the final stop of the station in Ibadan, things such as hotels, malls, shopping centres can easily pop up there.

Imagine leaving lagos the same day to go shopping in ibadan and return back the same day by train. This is how big cities were built

"Very smart entreprenouers would start looking for land now around the final stop of the station in Ibadan, things such as hotels, malls, shopping centres can easily pop up there."

In DJ Khaled's voice, you're smart. I swear, this has been on my mind since last year. So many investment opportunities will be created with this rail project. I can't wait till it is completed... interesting times ahead.

Amaechi should have provided modern trains with double deckers not old style Chinese trains.

Okpa042:
If you look closely you'd see chinese contractors


These guys would just take everything we have in nigeria slowly, one by one by one while we are debating amotekun, 2023 presidency and what not.

Throughout the ember months, Nairaland was flooded with news between nigeria and the chinese. Even jack ma came here sef.

The other day, one chinese man married an anambra woman.

Its no longer conspiracy. ITS HAPPENING ALREADY

Chinese invasion of africa...

Who let this one out of Yaba mental hospital.

Ya'll hailed Saraki's senate when they rejected the borrowing plan that was supposed to finance the rail projects in other parts of the country.

What's the fuss about now?

thundafire:
Then y don't dey government embark on such project in dey SS passing through the SE so dat dey regions wouldn't feel neglected Amaechi will be blind to make such project run in SS but will be quick to say same in DAURA

Its madness for a country of over 200million people not to have a good railway system.

You will never see this kind of projects in the north..... God forbid bad thing......

Ich liebe es.

lovemoi2:
Good
The key to success is realising that our big goals aren’t going to happen overnight, in the next week or maybe even the next year but this is okay

Lack of appreciation and gratefulness can lead us down

Thank you FG for making this happen and thanks to the Chinese people


NO MAN IS AN ISLAND

I love your comment. Keep it up.

No, they are not, I watched one of the test run on channel TV, a journey from Lagos to Ibadan took 4 hrs thats almost the same as using the road considering traffic, Lagos to Ibadan is 2 hrs without traffic. It will be more beneficial for transportation of goods and commuting of those that can afford to pay for road transportation.

Like people are blaming GEJ now that he did too much in the North and too little in the South.
Before May 2015 Amaechi denied that GEJ did any trainline in SE/SS. Even though the line passed almost the backyard of Amaechi.

Amaechi only admitted after he became Minister. Claiming he didn't know before. He was now commissioning train just month after becoming minister, the work of GEJ.

He will reap what he sewed.

Chinese invasion of africa...

Chinese invasion kor! The Brits, Americans, French are ripping us off till this day with little or nothing to show for it. Tell me how many infrastructures have the west built for us in this century. Do you even know why the crude oil found in Nigeria still cannot be refined in Nigeria? It is crystal clear the Chinese do have their agenda but at least they're building / wholly or partly funding infrastructural developments across Africa, South America, in the Pacific...Stop spewing the white man's narratives. If our leaders are smart, the Chinese would not outwit them in any negotiations regarding loans and terms of payments.

P.S: I'm not a fan of Buhari but in all honesty I commend the work he, Ameachi and their team are doing in the railway sector.

TheSociopath:
Are these speed trains? If they are, then this initiative will seriously decongest some parts of Lagos. Imagine living in Abeokuta and you can get to CMS under one hour, or Ibadan, Ore, Oyo and you can get to CMS/Obalende in 50 mins to an hour. Not only will it improve the distribution of wealth, traffic will lessen in Lagos and govt will earn revenue.

They shouldn't bring trains that will use 5 hours from Ibadan to Lagos, they'll be pretty useless

omg!! What? That would not happen naaa

Sorry, but credit does NOT belong to this government - alone....

The 25-Year Rail Development Masterplan was the brainchild of the Obasanjo administration...
While the initial financing (loans) were secured and contracts were awarded by the Jonathan administration.

This is an apt epitome of government being a CONTINUUM...
Even the Itakpe-Ajaokuta line was conceived and construction begun under the Shagari and IBB administrations.

Why are thanking "the Chinese people"? Is it free or charity?
Your children will be repaying the loans taken for these rail projects.

I am more ashamed fmof you after scrolling through your post. u never made the same observations during the length n breath of 16 years of pdp. People like you will be stoned to death if I was the president.

sulaak:
Seriously, do we need Chinese companies to build railways lines and rail stations? I can understand the importation of Chinese locomotives, but rail construction is basic civil engineering.

We should be ashamed that 60 years after independent, we can't operate refineries, steel plants or operate and maintain our roads and rail networks.

The Chinese government's Exim bank is giving you billions of dollars of low-interest loans at about 2-3% interest rate...
On the specific condition that you use Chinese contractors - after all, the money they are giving belongs to Chinese taxpayers!

They are just TEST-RUNNING those trains, but the trains will not be high-speed (that is, 200-250+ km/h)...
Nonetheless, the trains will have speed capacity of up to 150 km/h, but will likely run at 120km/h (like the Abuja-Kaduna line).

God bless the good citizens (optimists)
God bless president Muhammadu Buhari
God bless Nigeria
And may God change the heart of the wailers to wail no more but support this good initiative of PMB.
We'll get there soon
NO TO PDP AGAIN
