You are conveniently believing a lie my good man,

I was there live as a contracted worker during GEj and Pdp admin, when this project started, inside railway yard Ebute matte oyinbo,

Pitifully my phone got stolen, while working for coca cola, else, I did bomb this thread with picture evidence to expose those lies


Were you there by yourself like a ghost because there's no official or nonofficial documentation of any rail project started by jona and jona himself fir swear for you for lying on his behalf.

Must you even paint yourself as a liar, a dishonest person, a crooked and fabricator of lies and tales?

This govt and claiming and twisting facts. The Lagos-Ibadan stretch of the rail project is part of the Lagos-Kano project which was started by the GEJ administration. The Abuja-Kaduna portion of the project had already been fully completed and dis portion of the project had already been started by the previous administration which was why dis govt embarked on a modernisation of what was already done wen it claimed to have started it

Started by GEJ how? Was it designed under GEJ? Or any contract awarded by GEJ administration? What did GEJ do on the railway? Please note that this standard gauge we are talkting about now is different from the narrow gauge that contract for rehabilitation was awarded under GEJ?

Stop this misinformation, the proposed rail line was single guage which was not signed but stopped at proposal stage.
PMB redrew, approved, paid for and completed the first phase with the second phase starting soon

The Lagos-Ibadan rail link is the first leg of a much longer railway stretching from Lagos inland to Kano. A multi-billion-dollar contract for this railway was first awarded to CCECC in 2006 under then-President Olusegun Obasanjo, but a lack of funds prevented the project from starting.

It was re-awarded to CCECC by another president, Goodluck Jonathan, in 2012, but again failed to start.

In 2016 China and the new Nigerian administration of President Muhammadu Buhari renegotiated the contract, packaging it with another proposed coastal railway from Calabar to Port Harcourt, for $11bn.

They left Lagos Ibadan railway dead and decayed on the drawing board, but they still want to claim the credit?

Credit for what? For abandoning the project on the drawing board?

Warri Itakpe railway nko?

It was abandoned for 30 years and the PDP did not even bother to touch it, but PMB finished the project in less than 3 years.

GEJ government simply rehabilitated the existing narrow gauge. He did nothing about the construction of the recently completed standard gauge. The groundbreaking ceremony was done on 7th March, 2017. Below is the link.

If you have evidence to the contrary, provide link to support it especially the ground breaking that was done by either Jonathan, Yar’adua or Obasanjo.

Contrary to the misinformation being circulated on social media, the Lagos—Ibadan Standard Gauge Rail Line is the first Standard Gauge Rail line in Nigeria to be started (2017) and completed (2020) by the same administration- the Buhari Administration.
This is misleading. The ground breaking was for the Station building in 2017. I was there life even though the building already started.

Is it that you guys don't read? Look at the images and comment of the originator of this post, it shows clearly that THE BUHARI ADMINISTRATION STARTED THE PROJECT IN 2017 OR WAS IT GEJ THAT WAS IN OFFICE IN 2017? You may hate Buhari for all known and unknown reasons but for goodness sake give honor to whom honor is due. he started the project, did not abandon it but completed it fair and square with no drama whatsoever. He did well and must be commended, period!

Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo will on Tuesday next week perform the Ground Breaking ceremony to mark the commencement of the construction of Lagos-Ibadan Railway Line.

The Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo (SAN) will perform the ground breaking of the Lagos-Ibadan Railway Line which is the Second Segment of the Lagos-Kano Standard Gauge Railway System with an extension to the Lagos Port Complex, Apapa.

The chef host of the historic event is the Minister of Transportation, Mr. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi while the event will be attended by important dignitaries cutting across the spectrum of the society including State Governors, Captains of Industry and Stakeholders in the Transportation Sector with take-off at the Ebute-Metta Railway Terminal, Lagos

The Lagos-Kano Railway Standard Gauge Project will not only generate massive employment for the teeming youths but also help to bridge the Infrastructural deficit in the Transportation Sector of the economy.

Ok let's tak a good look at these ipob and PDP lies.


So, OBJ awarded the first contract in 2006 and he left office without starting or laying 1 single rail.

Yaradua came and did not do anything.

GEJ showed up and left office without doing a damn thing?


16 years and 3 PDP presidents couldn't start and complete the project, but PMB started and completed the project in less than 4 years.

Are they saying 16 years and 3 PDP presidents wasn't enough to start and complete this single project that PMB, 1 single APC president completed in less than 4 years?


Are you people not seeing the stupidity, shame and incompetence you are even crediting to all your useless PDP losers? You are not even doing them any favors, you are basically embarrassing them and showing us how useless and incompetent they are.. grin grin grin grin
