I have been looking for answers to this question. What is the real motive behind the rail to niger republic.how is it going to benefit Nigeria and Nigerians.?
if only we had ask this question when Jonathan initiated the idea to build a railway to Niger back in 2013, perhaps it wouldn't have been an issue today.

imagine if a southern president built a rail line to Ghana or southern Cameroon and how it will impact west African trade. Next time tell your southern presidents to invest in infrastructure and not chop all the money
Help me tell him that it is a Southern president of GEJ that initiated this Nigeria to Niger rail way but it never made him blink an eye then. These people are quick to say GEJ initiated BVN, started warri to Itakpe rail but don't want to admit that Jonathan initiated Kano to Niger rail.

So you mean $36 billion to link all 36 States of the federation (an average of $1 billion per state) is too much?
Oya tell us how much is okay to you? $2 million?

In your dream if they tell you that FG will link the whole states together with railway you will believe. Thesame fg that can't construct major federal roads will construct railway track that will link the whole states. We all know what their intention will be once the money gets to them.

Jona did not initiate Warri Itakpe, it was 30 years abandoned project before Jona.

The narrow guage they are making noise about was started by GEJ, he awarded the PH- Makurdi line in 2011 to his looting and stealing friends in 2011 and nothing was done but Jona paid them tons of billions.

When the narrow gauge looting and stealing orgy was going on, these tribal hypocrites did not say a word, they were happy shouting ebele son of the soil.

In fact Jona gave the narrow gauge contract to an ibo man zero rail construction knowledge or previous rail work, he took the billions and did nothing.

Their problem was created by the de useless and corrupt PDP they keep voting for

Don't mind the ignorant tribal elements making noise, they care less about Nigeria, they don't know anything beyond their Buhari hatred.

This is Makurdi Railway Rehabilitation done under Past Democratic Party. The motion to probe 463km PH - railway line at a cost of N19.2bn
The firm involved was Eser Contractin, owned by ibo man.


The tribal hypocrites are ignorant and clannish people, they assign other people's good work to useless, crooked and corrupt Jona, but won't assign Jona's real bad, crooked and corrupt work to Jona.

They are shedding crocodile tears and blaming Amaechi and the FG over narrow gauge rail when in fact it was GEJ's idea, he awarded the contract for the narrow gauge in 2011 to their own ibo man who looted the money and did not do any work.

the rehabilitation of the narrow gauge ph-maduguri began but stopped under Buhari as well as the concession agreement of that rail to GE.. that's why till today you get train services from ph- Aba.

yes corruption will definitely play a part in why the project wasn't concluded,but it's not like this administration you want to force down our throat isn't worse.

An administration that made a man who took off with millions of dollars meant for dredging the lower Niger ,governor isn't corruption free.

and another lie of yours I want to point out is the claim that gej built the narrow gauge line. He only began and almost concluded that of Abuja.

the ph-maduguri rail is a relic from the days of colonialism -before independence. The raillines of Nigeria along with Nipost and many others collapsed under Obasanjo (something our brothers from that side turn a blind eye to today). Gej awarded a contract rehabilitate it like I earlier stated .

How Non-Existent Company Was Awarded Multi-Billion Naira Railway Contract



Eser Contracting and industry Company Incorporated was unregistered but was awarded a N19.2 billion railway rehabilitation contract in violation of public procurement regulations.

A multi-billion-naira contract to rehabilitate a section of Nigeria's Eastern Railway Line was awarded to an unregistered entity in a process that reeked of corruption, regulatory failure, collusion, and defiance of Nigeria's public procurement rules, an investigation by PREMIUM TIMES has shown.


That malfeasance was committed during the administration of Goodluck Jonathan


https://allafrica.com/stories/202010170064.html


See how crooked and corrupt GEJ sabotaged us?

He awarded almost N20 Billion contract to a non-existent company, this is the same narrow gauge rail that ignorant and unintelligent tribal ipob miscreants are crying over and blaming PMB for.

Lingo is owned by a politician and businessman, Linus Ukachukwu, who authorities say is now owing the Nigerian taxpayers after receiving payment and failing to deliver on the job awarded to him.

Mr Ukachukwu’s company, which had no track record of railway construction, was awarded the N23.7 billion contract for the rehabilitation of a section of the Eastern line, the 640 KM distance from Kuru in Plateau State, northcentral Nigeria, to Maiduguri in the northeast.

The businessman received at least N9.4 billion


https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/402623-investigation-from-jonathan-to-buhari-inside-nigerias-multibillion-naira-railway-fraud.html


Just imagine, this man was awarded the narrow gauge contract with zero rail experience, he collected N9.4 billion for nothing done. but his clannish ibo brothers are here shedding crocodile tears.

Linus Ukachukwu owe us N10 billion, courtesy of Jona the thief..

1. There is no waste and there can never be any waste per money and estimate of the amount we need to connect every corner of Nigeria via rail system, It's either you did not read the article or you are just one of the can't read and comprehend people.

2. You are not a rail construction engineer and you have zero knowledge about rail construction, management or operation so you can not determine the cost of any rail system talk less coming up with your own price tag?

3. Do you know the cost of ordinary screw, talk less the cost of labor, manpower, tools, procurement, importation and installation of trains, coaches and hardware? You really know?

Of course, you don't know, you are just making ignorant noise with zero substance,

4. It cost $1.5 Billion to construct Lagos Ibadan railway with many beautiful stations, so how did you arrive at $3 Billion to cover the whole of Nigeria with rail, rail yards, stations, coaches and engines?
