SamNaijaboy: Agreed, I have come to the same conclusion as you. This country should be split in two. The South will lose nothing by getting rid of these regressive people. They have tilted an already biased political system left by the British in their favour. They engage in shameless ethnic nepotism across the civil service, government and armed forces. What has the North given us bar banditry, religious violence, poverty, ethnic nepotism and multiple despots like Abacha, Babangida and Buhari himself..? Let's go our separate ways, we all know who will struggle. The North will turn into Somalia in no time and we won't miss them.. 2 Likes |

First of all: The UN secretary general is not the highest office on earth. The highest civil service job, sure, but the US president is more powerful , by far. The UN Deputy Secretary general is a Hausa Fulani is a function of her nomination by Nigeria's president. If it was Obasanjo and the office was vacant, it would be a Yoruba man or Igbo man there now-whoever the Nigerian president nominated and backed by rallying African and Arab Muslim country support for. It is not by virtue of the fact that she is anything special. We have had 2 or 3 Africans as Secretary general before (Kofi Annan & Butrous Butrous-Ghali) , so what is deputy that we won't hear word. Abeg go sit down. Buhari got to be president as a mistake by the Yorubas and he has shown that the core North are incompetent and can not be trusted with power. It should be a shame to you how badly he has ruled. Ibkhaleel: 2 Likes |

mrvitalis: There's ongoing investment into expanding not just the transmission network but also distribution network to deliver 7000mw in the 1st phase by end of 2021, 11000mw by 2023 and 25,000mw by 2025. The rail link between Apapa port and Kano to Maradi Niger will also be ready by 2025. Electricity is more than just light in people's homes, it is industry and production which is dependent on cheap efficient logistics. Who says we can't have both ready, or we lack the economic capacity to finance both sectors? Rail transport will make movement of food from producing region cheaper and faster, reduce farm waste and make cheap food available in urban areas. Also raw materials for processing will be more readily available to industry which needs electricity to run. You can't get good results by neglecting one for the other. |

Imolastborn99: Yet your people are crying and going mad that Fulani excluded them from rail projects. Same projects their brother Jonathan feels they are too inferior to have. He was rather sharing money to pastors, emergency businessmen and fronts to buy private jets. GEJ even boasted that sign of his economic success story is the number of private jets parked at the airport. Imagine his biggest achievement is excessive empowerment of less than 500 people close to him. Most of them have since sold the jets off at giveaway prices within 3 years of been cut off from free money. But see this railway, it will serve a number of generations for the next 100 years. Which one is the smart investment? |

mrvitalis: Do you understand the building blocks of job creation? Is it just a wish or something you just conjure by word of mouth? It's surprising many of you don't understand improvement in logistics is a major ingredient of sustainable job creation. Is it a deficiency of logic in our educational system. I keep seeing people saying create jobs by stopping investment in infrastructure, and I'm really shocked at the lack of depth in thinking. 1 Like |

mrvitalis: [b]You're wrong and your stats are way off mark. The surest path to national prosperity is to reduce the cost of doing business. Mass rail transit is the universally acknowledged way to do this. It provides a far cheaper and more efficient means of transporting goods and people around the country. The national railway masterplan is a 20 year plan to connect EVERY Nigerian state capital by rail. It will be Africa's biggest and most comprehensive national rail network. It will also connect ultimately with other West African and African nations' networks. The railway expansion programme is an African thing, not just a Nigerian thing. Others are building impressive rail projects too. The ultimate aim is to connect ALL Africa by high-speed rail. The United States became the world's biggest economy after it was transformed by the building of thousands of kilometres of railroad across the country in the early 20th century. It greatly reduced the cost of doing business there. The rest is history. 1 Like |

If Nigeria had a well-developed power and a steel industry they wouldn't need to waste billions that importing steel from China to build railways at an exorbitant price. $8.3 billion for theThe Lagos–Kano Standard Gauge Railway is a 1,343 kilometres (835 miles). |

Asquare84: The bami Allahs in the region shall enable returns from the investment, abi? The most busy route in Nigeria - the east through Onitsha to Benin to Lagos- route has no railway lines. Remember NITEL? NITEL invested heavily in the north but scarcely invested in the booming business cities in the south. NITEL died. |
