You are very stupid and ignorant.

The British were maximum looters who came here to loot, which is the ONLY reason for colonialism.

Instead of being a stupid slave happy to be colonised, you should be asking why your country was an undeveloped bush in 1960 after they had ruled for 70 years uninterrupted and exporting your resources.

Port Harcourt-Aba-Maiduguri Eastern railway corridor rapidly speeding up....

It will pass through the 5 Eastern capitals of Umuahia, Owerri, Awka, Enugu then Abakaliki and it was conceived and started by the immediate past government led by former President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR and continued by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR.

True Igbos will never ever use it. True Igbos will not use infrastructure built or maintained by their enemies, just as they will never ride on the Muhammadu Buhari 2nd Niger Bridge, instead, they will rather swim across the Niger

Mumu people.

when you say "your country" and "your resources", who is the "your" you are referring to?

so since 1960 till date, what have the Nigerians that have ruled Nigeria done differently from the British?

if Nigeria according to you Nigeria "was an undeveloped bush in 1960 after they had ruled for 70 years uninterrupted and exporting your resources", why has Nigeria not developed since 1960?

Mumu. No brain.

Tell us what the British did in their 70 year rule.

Name the industries they built. Name the roads, expressways and infrastructure they built.

Are you aware they did not build ONE single power plant in Nigeria? Or even a national power grid?

KAINJI dam was our first power plant commissioned in 1964 by the Balewa administration.

Are you aware they did not build a single university in Nigeria, compared to the 250+ universities we have today?

They was no public education. Literacy rate was 5% at independence, compared to 75% today.

The only reason you stupid pea brain can type and read and write is that blacks came to power and built THOUSANDS of public schools across Nigeria, which educated you.

If the British were still in charge, you would today be a village illiterate palmwine tapper like your grandpa was under colonial rule, so STFU you self hating asswipe.

They said university of ibadan was founded in 1948, colonial era. I attended the school and that's what I learnt. Some secondary schools in Lagos and elsewhere were founded before 1960. Our founding fathers, Awo, Zik and the rest went to school before the country gain independence.

There was a time we were even begging them for just one university in Nigeria before UI was established.

Do you know how many universities we have in Nigeria today?

MadamExcellency:
They should link the routes to all the companies in Aba as previously done before the breakdown. Unilever, PZ, Johnson, Equitable etc have tracks inside the factories for the transportation of finished goods. That was what made Aba special. Aba had well connected Gas lines and train tracks to Factories.

Unna wey get money to connect companies, to connect to national track should nt be a problem.

why should it be to Maiduguri, why not cameroon. Or stop at Jos. Such a useless line. A non busy line, in cargo or people. Will they kpai if it went there.
The one we like, they don't do. It's the busy body one that they like to do.

This was already planned in the GEJ era, but it was at the bottom of the list. Why didn't they do the ones on the top of the list.

I haven't even gotten to the quality of this quickly patch patch project.


Well sha, let it not be that this is the only benefit the SE gets, because this is 10% below mediocre. We deserve more like the others.

The most sensible post of the day. Those who agitated for independence did so for thehr own selfish gains. See the so called pro-democracy activists of the 90s today,.they're the most beneficiary of all the goodies that democracy has to offer, while the masses they claimed to be figjting for are wallowing in penury. One of them is president today yet, federal staff went home to celebrate chrismas with nothing. He was said to own 3 private jets today whereas, he didn't have more than one car in 1993.

South Africa may not be able to build the same level of infrastructure left behind by the colonialists in the next century. They said the apartheid era witnessed by South Africans was brutal and I kept telling them that , no regime can be more brutal than that of the abacha in Nigeria.

Wow! And the colonised people haven't looted a dime since. Be forming woke. South African infrastructure is almost in ruins because 'superior' black Africans are in power. 60% of the infrastructure we use in Nigeria today was set up by the British; the same wack railway system you are celebrating here.

Honestly the level of ignorance and self hate among these people is tragic.

It never even occurred to the moro.n to ask WHAT EXACTLY the British achieved in power in their 70 year rule.

He just assumed that because they were white people, they were good for us!

Shocking levels of stupidity on this forum.

If the British were still ruling Nigeria, they would have developed Nigeria far beyond what it is now.
There would have been massive infrastructures, good roads, pipe borne water, 24 hours electricity, sound economy, good health system, standard education & a good standard of living.
In addition, there would have been nothing like Boko Haram, herdsmen, bandits & other terrorist elements.
Security will be well assured for all Nigerians & crime rates will be abysmal.
There would have been nothing like ASUU strikes, power outage, terrorists/bandits attacks, high level of corruption among politicians & office holders, substandard healthcare & education systems, high cost of living, religious extremism, extreme poverty, high level of unemployment etc.
Nigerian politicians have destroyed the country that's why Nigerians are emigrating in droves to UK, US & other developed countries for better living conditions.

God bless the United Kingdom
God bless America
God bless Nigeria
