And that wouldn't have been possible if not because of the oil revenue coming from the East and Mid west. When you are rejoicing and shouting, good if you will know the source and how it came to be. Your ancestors will not tell you the bitter truth.

Which Yeast?

SS is not yeast


You idiots have been forcing this nonesense these days and are assuming your dead weight yeast as an oil producing region.


Stop this nonesense

That's good

That's the real investment

Now imagine if the federal government had connected a rail line from Lagos to EAST or ABUJA TO EAST

Nobody is wasting a dime anymore on your useless yeast.

Keep waiting for Abuja to fix your welfare case region.

Although I applaud the initiative, the main thing should how to maximise it's revenue so it would be able to pay for repairs, other costs, while generate profit/revenue for the government. I pray doesn't end up like the Abuja-kaduna railine thing

I didn't know Lagos is the only state receiving oil money. Those hyenas (jungle scavengers) receiving 13% derivation every month, what have they done with it?

In Nigeria, I don't know why some people don't ask questions when things are done especially by the government.

For me I don't really see this project as a sustainable one except modifications are made even at that the project was highly inflated, that alone might make the entire project fail in the long run.

It is not enough to just claim and brag about having something but keeping and making it self sustainable is more important.
Lagos will maintain it.

Nah only brewery ?

There are mgbekes servicing stations across Lagos.



Visit one and you may find your future wife there.


So that is where you got your present wife from? What a very nice move.

Now you can see that brewery business is very good business. Please continue enjoying your mgbeke wife. Remember to always give her some shepe and paraga for better performance.

Diesel or Electric, what is the difference? As long as it works, who cares? Diesel is more reliable in Nigeria, but if electric will be the main. Power, then, has to be reliable and efficient.

Only people from south East will talk like this.

Quick to criticize other region but want to glorify their so-called region.

As a human you face challenges I believe you still have secrets despite everything that happens to you . But some are happier to hear negative news than positive.

I guess the places where the oil is coming from are not getting Monthly allocation, 13% derivation funds? How come they can use that money to do something good for their people.,.....
Re: Lagos Blue Line Rail, Makes 350 Trips With Over 75,000 Passengers In One Month by Ashirioluwa: 11:08am On Oct 05, 2023
Good one, but I still believe that is an extremely low number, especially considering the money involved in setting up this project and the population of Lagos State.

350 trips and 75,000 passengers in a month. That's an average of about 12 trips and 2486 passengers per day.

To end the monopoly of commercial vehicles in Lagos, more trips must be added.

And products from the brewery are sold in garages / parks all over Lagos to agberos and touts, thereby helping the IGR of their state. Do you now see that breweries are good businesses? By the way have you seen how mad men prowl around Lagos daily after too much shekpe and paraga from breweries too? Do you now see how wise that Messiah is?

By the way are breweries not better than cocaine and forgery? That’s what your own messiah is accused of, bringing international disgrace to the entire country. Which now is better?

See an Igbo man defending a brewery over rail infrastructure.

I pity your generations. That are already disadvantaged before being born.

What makes it un- sustainable?

Whatt modifications are you expecting?

Will a mass exodus out of Lagos you see in your dreams make it die suddenly?

Is there any mass transit plan that will render it useless?

Have you seen the perennial Lagos traffic disappear in your dreams to make is unattractive to passengers again?

Do you even know the perculiarity of the route it covers in terms of human and vehicular traffic?

It seems the bragging about the BL that is your headache. Try and get a paracetamol for that first.

Don’t mind the idiots, when Tinubu was laying foundation for the railway Peter obi was using the state funds to build brewery to get them drunk, let them leave Lagos and go back to Anambra to drink their hope beer they refused
