[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.] Now someone responsible with a good sense of knowledge and enlightenment is talking, but others wont pay attention and wont stop being sentimental

Please say it louder

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.

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.

You are the one being sentimental here..Buhari Goff just agree please and no road Project by Buhari except a super highway with Co nnecting Bridges can substitute for that metro Rail..
Bros you know how Lagos would have been now if that has stand?

There was no money and yet Buhari paid out the contractors to leave?
it wasn't the federal Government that was gonna pay for the rail or was it?

Buhari did this and that for Lagos doesn't mean we shouldn't hold him liable for the other.

it is like saying since a Governor build infrastructures in his states and all that, he shouldn't be Persecuted for embezzling Public funds

I can see ur fingers is faster than ur brain. For yr information I campaigned and voted for Jonathan in 2011, but wen we saw his failure, we booted him out in 2015, we dont wail, we speak through the ballot. So, stop wailing and do something useful with ur life.

And for your own information I campaigned and voted for Buhari in 2015 but not 2019 cause he is a failure and I don't reinforce failure like the north and south west do.
and before you call Abia or Ipob here you should know am an Akwa ibomite

That is a lie... Buhari never cancelled the 4th mainland bridge, if u live in Lagos u will know that the light rail is under construction..
The economic failures of this country isn't his fault.. No body give a Bleep with buhari if the economy was good... Global oil prices fell..that was what brought us to recession when oil prices where good and Nigeria had money.. Why didn't those PDP president invest in order sectors of the economy (agriculture).. Why didn't they build more rail lines.. Why were dey still borrowing..everyone is just against buhari cuz he from the north.. But he is truly trying his best for the economy.. Do u think Nigeria has money unlike before...
If OBJ, Jonathan, yar adua.. Diversified our economy.. Immediately oil lost value.. We would have immediately switch..
The hardship isn't his fault.. His only fault is his failures in security and how he has encouraged tribalism..
But still he his the same person constructing second Niger bride, Lagos Ibadan rail line, Lagos Ibadan express road, Abuja Kano expressway, enough portharcourt expressway,itakpe warri rail line and the man is repairing all our refineries ..he also has plans to construct a new seaport in warri.. U can go and google that.. Contract has been awarded ..name one good project PDP did apart from Abuja kaduna railway that took years to build ...
What killed our economy is the fact that we sell oil abroad and still import refined products.. Isn't that madness.. Why didn't PDP fix this when oil was flourishing.. But today go and visit all the nations refineries and see the massive rehabilitation on going... There are some things we are not meant to import.. How can Nigeria be importing rice, petroleum and even steel..
When we have enough oil and refineries that were abandoned, enough land to farm... You need to visit the largest steel plant in West Africa.. (ajaokuta) it is rottening..but buhari is still working to bring it back to life.. He has plans to completely ban fuel and steel Import which will so much help our economy..
Look at our international airport.. Why did Jonathan abandon some of the new terminal he was building ..
Name one plan PDP had for us..
even if Jonathan won the 2015 election.. Are u guys telling me that we would not have been in this mess..
in politics APC and PDP r d same but...u can't compare what buhari is doing.. With what PDP did with 16 years.
If PDP did well the country mess will not be this huge..
Am not An APC member nor a fan.. But am being honest

Please how old are you? We are talking about 1983 when Buhari was the head of state. Were you born then?

Please go and ask your parents, they will tell you.

Even true Lagosians did not utter a word in this because they know it's true.

Please i dont really know what you are getting at here!. Was the metro rail line going to save the country from hash condition or is it going to stop people from treking now in lagos or was the rail routed to all roads in lagos. Please we are in democracy now, so i dont really understand why the thing of past is relevant today. Perhaps you might as well say it was GEN. SANI ABACHA fault

Are PDP sure he is d same Buhari

anonimi:


Are you also an illiterate like barawo bubu such that you do not know the Lagos metro/light rail is a state project?
Or is it still the FCT

Do you know how to perform brain surgery? Do you know how to construct a multi rise building? If your answer is No to one or both questions...does that make you illiterate? I responded in line with a comment made by someone else...
