PDP had 16years with OBJ and did not remember to restart the project. What kind of humans are these, they might as well blame Lord Luguard...
What differentiate them and APC that keep Blaming the Past Govt?

So after the over 35 years cancellation of Lagos Metro Station no civilian administration came on board to restart it?..... Smh!

1999-2015 is enough years to construct Lagos Metro Station and build the 4th mainland bridge if not for the endemic primitive corruption of the party you support.

All i can see and say is that there's no free easy money for lazy people and that's enough frustration to rant incessantly.
At least you agree that the failure truncated our growth in Military rule and that is what matters

OK now buhari is the President, why can't he restart the metrol rail in Lagos as a form of repentance/Apology to Lagosians...it isn't to late or is it?

1. You have to go and learn some history about the Military coups in Nigeria, you will know who overthrew the first democratically elected government.

2. So when Buhari cancelled the rail project during his rule as military president, what did PDP do in their 16 years of leadership to bring back this project? Buhari ruled 20 months ( Dec. 1983 to August 1985). PDP ruled for 16 years ( May 1999 to May 2015).
When Buhari cancelled it, Lagos was still the Capital of Nigeria. when PDP Came to Power abuja was/still is the capital and the party built the Abuja light rail up to 95%
now buhari is in power and its been five years but the failure hasn't even apologized to lagosians or even tried to rebuild it has Compensation to Lagosians. and to think you are a Lagosian or Yoruba too but you support the Only Human that truncated the growth of Lagos on it infancy.

So you don't know that the disaster you defend is responsible for the traffic challenge in Lagos State.

Buhari over threw the first democratically elected president of this country thus sending the nation to sixteen years of military jaunta.

Buhari cancelled the Lagos metro line project.

Buhari cancelled the fourth mainland bridge project, so you can see the disaster you always defend is anti progressive.

Twice the nation entered recession, twice USA handed Nigeria visa ban, the interesting thing is that during those period, one person was the head of state, and that is Gen. Buhari.

So his backwardness did not start today. Buhari administration has always brought hardship to Nigerians.
But you sabi lie sha, bro... grin
When was the first time US handed Nigeria visa ban again? Abeg remind me...

It is curious that those who knew his antecedents nevertheless packaged him for the zonebees to call their messiah.
Such a gullible crowd of lazy youths who cannot find out their own history about a candidate.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says President Muhammadu Buhari may not do well in economy and foreign affairs, except in military matters.

“Buhari is not a very hot person on the economy and foreign affairs,” Obasanjo said.

The former President stated this on Monday at the third International Conference on African Development Issues — themed, “Driving inclusive and sustainable development in Africa: Models, methods and policies” — organised by Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State.

While reacting to a question posed to him by a member of the audience: “Is there any hope for Nigeria under the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari?”, Obasanjo replied, “Is there any hope for Nigeria under this administration? I came back from Geneva, Switzerland a few days ago to attend a conference titled, ‘Are elections giving democracy a bad name?’ We had an election, we elected a leader and the good thing about democracy is that the power you have to elect a leader is also the power you have to remove him. I am saying this because I said earlier that if you don’t see any leader that has done well in the 56 years of Nigeria’s independence, then let us forget about Nigeria.

“I will tell you what I know and I will tell you what I don’t know. I know Gen. Muhammadu Buhari. He served under me in the military. His characteristics that I know, his behaviour that I know, he has not deviated from them. He was never a perfect man, he is not a perfect man and no leader can ever be a perfect man because they are human beings. But if you read my book, what I said about him is correct. He is not a hot person when it comes to economy. He is not a very hot person when it comes to foreign affairs. But he will do well in matters of military and he will do well in fighting Boko Haram.”

Since democracy, what has the past administration done.? Instead they cant rebuild nigeria but crippled some sectors (our refineries) and privatise (NEPA) and sell the ones still working (NITEL). If you are have stayed in Apapa for the part 20 years, then you will see the diffferences between then and now. As this gov. has built all the federal roads which ever since the past gov. has been patching up consecutively with flood everyday by day and dead fishes(rotten) lying here and there. We are in democracy so why talking about military era if you not insane.

Truth be told, even if our economy is bad then where is the money that have been saved for the past 16 years, so we can use it to build back the infrastructures this gov. is lacking, or the metro rail that the past immediate gov. cant do when nigeria was blooming. Please my fellow youth be observate and know when nigeria start failing.

He started the nonesense blame game, then he is also being reminded that he is part of the problem in Nigeria.

Now he is in power so he should make a difference, and not continue with the blame game.

Just for your knowledge. whenever an economy gets bad like ours. It is of great interest that the government should draw funds or money from the national treasure, but since there is no treasure to draw funds from, then the masses we suffer with increase in taxes and commodities prizes, etc

The man is a failure, if he were my father, I'd beg him to quietly find someone who has vision, encourage and build the person then step down so the country can move forward


I would have insulted him but since he is older than my father, let me reserve the right to insult him later

So since Lagos is the richest state in the country what stops them from doing it in the last 35 years? And do you know that Lagos had the greatest proportion of PTF spending by Buhari between 1995 to 1999? Don’t be sentimental or bring in any hateful rumors , with Chief Rufus Giwa as the Lagos representative on PTF board and Buhari as Chairman billions of Naira had gone into lagos projects from Road networks at least a total of 100km network of excellent roads in all parts of lagos and all done by Julius Berger, Water Supply- Ikoyi VIctoria Island , Ikeja and Apapa. The Ijora Power Station where Lagos state government requested for the money instead of direct intervention as they have their own existing contractors and 1.5 billion Naira was given to them in 1997-98.
In healthcare many hospitals including LUTH and Lagos General Hospital had the most extensive interventions, the sickle cell center was completely rebuilt with library and everything by PTF. 85 % of all drug manufacturing factories in Nigeria are in Lagos and Ogun . PTF intervened in all these factories by spending billions of Naira to bring them up to date and licensed for production and then given contracts to produce and distribute drugs. I can go on and on and on....
I don’t want any silly and ignorant response to this. If your brain is not working please don’t respond. This is a matter of knowledge and not dirty bigotry , ethnicity and bitter politics. Respond only if you know what you are talking about.
As for the metro rail so called contract. It was only a plan not a contract and there wasn’t the money to pay for it and start at the time. Remember that Buhari spent only one year and 8 months as head of the military council.
