Where Are The Trains Lagos State Govt Said It Purchased In 2011 by SarkinYarki: 2:59pm On Jan 19, 2022
In 2011 the Lagos state govt claimed it had purchased some trains from Canada for it metro train project and the news even carried it that they had been shipped and headed to Lagos and over a decade later Governor Sanwo Olu is trying to buy another set of trains from America when those from Canada have still not arrived even after 10 years .. please see news article from 2011 below

LAGOS, Nigeria, Sept. 27, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The first of hundreds of Toronto subway cars that will furnish a new surface rail line in Lagos, Nigeria, has left Canada for the last time, and is now en route to Africa's largest city.

A Nigerian company, Eko Rail, has agreed to purchase 255 of the Toronto Transit Commission's (TTC) best-equipped subway cars for use in a much-needed Lagos Blue Line mass transit system. The TTC is in the process of purchasing larger "Rocket" trains to increase passenger capacity on their lines.

This is a fake news

Lagos state Government didn't claim to buy any trains in 2011

Or you can show me a valid source that states that Lagos State Government paid for trains in Canada

I'm waiting

Fashola only inspected the trains, the Lagos State didn't pay a cent for any train in 2011

If you have the evidence the Lagos State Government under Babatunde Raji Fashola paid for the trains in 2011, you can show us the evidence.
