Lifestone post:




We reason with lots of sentiment as a country. In my view, this project is all about competing for the share of trade routes to Niger Republic which is being competed for by both Nigeria and Benin Republic.
Niger Republic is land locked and will require access to Sea/Port through either Nigeria or Benin Republic. This is an economically sensible decision. The project is also significantly part of the LAKAJI corridor which was essentially designed to link Lagos to Kano to Niger Republic, that plan has been on ground before Buhari and it makes sense.
That project will certainly pay for itself given the success of Abuja - Kaduna and Lagos - Ibadan experience.



Why don't it start from the beginning to pay for itself? By the way, what is the population of NIGER? Can their population bring much revenue to Nigeria? Is there no internal problems that such loan would not solve to the betterment of Nigerians.
I think this is a misplaced development.
Lol. Na wa for Nigerians o. That rail will last for 100years at the minimum. Cargoes both import and export will run on the railway aside from their passenger component. Private sector will buy train coaches and run from Lagos to Niger Republic. It will enhance Nigeria participation the AfCTA

All I see is unbridled and shameless nepotism, it should be called northern Nigeria debt.

Situation in Lagos port is a disaster and a disgrace. I also agree that it's easier and cheaper to import and export via Benin Republic. But you will agree with me also that it should not stop this project. Let's request that government fix the port also, luckily they are both under the same Minister, our brother Amaechi
I totally agree with your assertion.

Instead of connecting southern states that are more economically viable buhari is building rail line to niger where he will be importing his fulani jihadist brothers in their thausands to win presidential elections and take over the lands of non fulani indigenous nigerians.

Punch is hereby telling Nigerians that what we have in place is not a government, but a "REGIME". lol

For the uninitiated, the term "government" is usually reserved for a lawful state organization, while "regime" is usually used to refer to a rogue government; e.g. a dictatorship or a totalitarian government. grin
Lots of people missed that including me.

Thanks

This loan should be channel towards the completion of 2nd phase of Niger bridge and abandon part of Lagos-Ibadan Expressway as well other critical projects that need urgent attention
Re: FG To Spend $4.9bn Fresh Loans On Kano-Niger Republic Rail Line, Others by Cognitivereason: 2:47pm On Sep 17, 2021
The loan is basically for Ibadan to kano and kano to maradi...
But media because of click bait chose to report that of kano to maradi and use it as headlines

Benin and Cameroon have ports.
Niger and chad don't.. And dey also do import and export and through other countries in stead of Nigeria which is closer..the rail is meant to DAT and improve the viability of the Lagos-kano-maradi line
ohosi4real:
If i may ask, why FG always focus on Niger republic than others Africa country like Benin republic who even more closer than Niger republic and others ?

Buhari is seriously working for the prompt establishment of the Islamic Emirate of Nigeria...he knows that with joining the Niger Republic population to this country, they will have more strength and ability to override all the southerner' territory...and the ugly thing there is that he is using a Southerner to fulfill his agenda...
Amaechi is being used to fulfil his agenda
The same way he is trying to establish a christiandom in southern Nigeria by building a bridge linking Nigeria with Cameroon......and using a in you peoples word "yoruba muslim" to achieve that
Hypocrite
Nigeria has gas pipeline that is linked with all west african countries but you lots see nothing wrong with that because its in the south

Cameroonian seperatists will soon join with southerners to override Nigeria

I am currently doing a research work on what you are saying and your perfectly right.
Bro that shouldn't stop this work. If this project is completed and we can successfully reform our port systems it will be easier for Niger Republic to import via Nigeria since transportation cost will be cheaper
Nobody will reform it in this government...Guangzhou port in China is the main reason China economy is booming. They open up themselves to the world with ease. Efficient and fast services in processing goods. One of the major reason for recession in Nigeria in the 80's was the port.

Most goods were jam packed there and they couldn't get to the owner on time, and because of "Nigeria oil money curse" where most goods were imported, inflation become noticeable and unnecessary recession sets in and the remedy was another poison called SAP(Structural Adjustment Program) ..that problem was never resolved, because Nigeria relocated her seat of power to Abuja shortly after the SAP program failure despite not producing anything tangible IBB devalued the currency for no known economic benefits because IMF tasked them to devalue it...and the Benin republic port became the easiest route to import goods into Nigeria. They solved the issue of jammed ports for us and most goods through the Benin port were smuggled into Nigeria.

Nigerians started importing used cars, especially Peugeot brand from France through the Benin port which extended to other goods like frozen foods, provisions, rice and second hand clothes. Nigerian were never used to second hand goods before now.

Benin survival is tied to the revenue they get from the port whose target is the Nigerian market. Do you know that all imports duties and taxes are duly paid for every goods imported through Benin to their government their...Only on the Nigerian side that they smuggle.

Because of the endemic corruption in the Nigeria port, you hardly get through unscathed whether you are planning to import or export goods. You cannot export perishable goods through Nigerian port without incurring unnecessary expenses. No serious person imports or export through the Nigeria port.

Trust me!

You are not brilliant, or hate has blindfolded you
The ports are not even running efficently and the coastal areas are not utilized fully.

Niger Rep is probably one of the poorest countries in the world.

This rail probably benefits them more than nigeria

Unless u have more info.

The chinese or europeans will put interest rate on it and the amount borrowed will be like small compared to the amount payed back.

All the money Buhari borrowed in 1985 we are still pauing till now.

He is very good at blocking flow of money and buisneess but quick to borrow.

Leaving Christian religion and embracing worldly lifestyle doesn't mean they are interested in joining your Islamic hellish religion...where all they think about is how to brainwash, hypnotize, blackmail, and destroy other people whose views are not the same as theirs.
Talking about joining your hellIsh religion, ....they can't forget easily.....they can t forget easily the havoc some of your Islamic representatives caused at the world trade center and New York building on 11th September 2001...they can forget easily what your Islamic representatives cause them and their loved ones in the Uk at the Train station that led to the destruction of lives and properties....there are lots of scars your Islamic representatives has caused all. these people all. over the world...
That's the reason Chinese people want to assist you in rewriting all your archaic Islamic unholy books. The world has identified those books as the cause of the global disaster and delinquency in some youths all.over the world.
And I concur with this development that your black religious book should be rewritten to make the world a better place to live...
Afghanistan is a core Muslim nation, yet the citizens are still living in fear. They can't exercise their total liberty, choas,, molestation and deprivation have been the national identity of this small Islamic nation.....destruction and wanton killing haven't been stopped .women in Afghanistan can not live the good life they wanted...all were being subjected to one archaic law written by one pedophile slain prophet.

Ghana has access to sea and has ports including the revamped Tema Ports, Benin Republic has her Coutonu ports (Currently the biggest competitor to Nigerian for even on our imports) who presently service Niger Republic more.
Rail to Niger Republic is attractive only because they are landlocked. I hope you get.
Let me mention here that the focus is on cargos transportation (80%) passenger opportunities is little
I think what he wants to hear is whether the business in Niger Republic as busy as Ghana's or Benin's
