You will have to pay for the monorail with your profits from Cocoa sales to make such statements! That's how it's done. You can not be collecting national allocations for Lagos and still be insisting to go ahead with your barefaced agbadorian heist!

It won't fly..
Mumu is talking as if Lagos is not giving much than what it was getting from FG as allocation. You never start crying .. much more of it is awaiting you unless you stop you hatred and bitterness attitude on whom God has blessed.

The internal generated revenue of Lagos is more than that of the whole of south east so Lagos does not depend on Federal Goverment allocation. Go and drink snipper

first of all, it is not logical to make this comparison. Lagos and Adiss Ababa are not the same. The cost of land in both areas are not the same. Land in lagos is more expensive, so compensation will be more. Also, the soil types are different, with that of Lagos being marshy due to a water terrain. Therefore the cost per km in Lagos will be more. The Lagos rail is being constructed by a state while that of Ethiopia is by a federal government. Payment for the project will cost more for that of Lagos as it will take a longer time to source the money. It's like trying to buy a car in 2015 and in 2022. Though the car is the same but it will cost differently with the 2015 being cheaper than the 2022. Two men bought land in 2010, both wanted to build the same house, one in a marshy land and the other on solid ground. One has the money to pay once while the other wanted to spread payment over a period of time. I ask will the price be the same?

No too worry yourself, the consciousness is building up among the Yorubas now unlike when I use to be the only one arguing against them. Very soon it will spill to the street then the igbos in Lagos will be force to either renounce the fools from Alaigbo or they will be ostracized back to Alaigbo with their chronic hate n irredeemable bigotry to meet their tribesmen.


kingmaster2009:
How I wish all. these foolish Yoruba people can deduce that Nyamiri people are not only fighting Tinubu and his political ambition...but they are fighting the entire Yoruba race on how to subdue them and encroach into their God-given inheritance

Obi is just the vehicle they intend to use to achieve this purpose...

I can stand and see what Obi will do if he becomes the president of this country...

Yoruba wake up, what is the business between what Sanwoolu rail project with Tinubu's political ambition...i wish an average person will see that these people hate all seeing your sons and daughters achieve greater height.....

The Bangladesh monorail was opened just a few days ago. The first phase of 21.2km was completed after about a decade of construction at a cost of $2.8billion. The project is being celebrated in Bangladesh as reported by AL Jazeera.

Lagos is not a country like Bangladesh. Lagos constructed a 27km monorail crossing the sea and paying compensation for structures removed to get the right of way at a cost of $1.5billion. Yet, Owobokiri from Anambra is saying we should not celebrate what Lagos has achieved with the monorail because it is mediocre. He’s even threatening Lagosians that they will pay for the train with cocoa earnings.

So tell us, what exactly are the landmark infrastructural projects in Anambra that are better and not mediocre like the Lagos monorail? Where is the Onitsha monorail that was initiated over a decade ago by Peter Obi?
So lagoon is sea? Please keep fooling yourself not everyone is a foolish slave.

It's far preferable for them to inflate the price of the project and get it done rather than the second Niger bridge that only existed on pages of newspapers with billions squandered all through the years PDP spent in power.... However, monorail was never supposed to be a new thing in Nigeria if people like Peter Obi and Rotimi Ameachi under PDP as governors, had done the needful by bringing into reality the project they initiated..

Lagos mass rail is way too inflated and shouldn't cost that much.
Now talking about Bangladesh, its actually a that expensive because its transiting through the urban and business districts. I.e its passing through a heavily built up areas that requires bridge at almost 97% of the total railway length.
Lagos own is just about less than 10% areas that required bridges I.e from marina to national theater and a lesser part of orile. So it shouldn't cost that much.

Do we have the same terrain? Crossing the lagoon would have cost a lot for instance.

Does the Addis Ababa rail track involve sea crossing? is it running on electricity or is it a locomotive train? are the design of the stations identical?
You should also tell us if the Ethiopian government payed compensation or not.
You don't need to argue with somebody who has exposed himself as a mumu.

Wrapper tying ogogoro people, Which one una done do for South South from Edo to Bayelsa?

Please,help me ask am ooo..My people for south south that has nothing impactful to show for over the past 20 years are here lambasting Lagos.
Even with more allocations and less population compared to Kano and Kaduna no state in the whole south south apart from Rivers state and maybe Akwa Ibom can boast of any level of development for the past five years.

Is it Bayelsa,Delta or even Edo?

My governor Obaseki (my peiple will say Obasacam) was busy commissioning 3 km of streetlights. Streetlights?!!! When others are carrying out mega projects in their respective states and my people despite collecting seventy something billion naira as 13% derivation owed to it by federal government yet, one over sabi is not ashamed of his place insulting Lagos that perhaps some of his relatives are being grateful working there.

South south people should cover their heads in shame condemning Lagos because most of their governors have nothing reasonable to show so far apart from Rivers an Akwa Ibom.

Even I as a southerner I can't but say :we no dey try!
