was almost born there bro. i only used 8 yrs in lag

Reflect7:


Yes they do breakdown EVERY DAY.

I am not going to argue with you because I've lived there and have known this since before you were born.

jazzyking:


Are you alright at all? Where exactly have you been in Europe of North America, that you're arguing blindly that trains breakdown daily?

Cnach:

The thing be say most of una never even enter tge train. Which one be 150-180km/h? If u try exceed 80km/m with that thing the kind push u go get ur self na only God go save u

SarkinYarki:


Just two Train's engines plying Lagos ibadan and then Abuja Kaduna

ogododo:

Dem forget GEJ started dis, but dey take glory for what dey did not pay for.

Reflect7:


You should visit London or New York. Trains break down DAILY on their lines leading to long delays. No biggie. So long as you have trained engineers at hand to fix any issues, and the NRC does.

Racoon:
I give kudos to the Buhari government for the railway revolution.It has really tried in that respect.

dangoteinlaw:
yea railway linking the south to the north. Who's benefiting here, u must be an aboki

27Pushing30:


Wait? Is that a STOOL inside the train? A STOOL? like WTF?

SUFFERInSMILIIN:


This is one of the reasons nigeria can never develop, illiterate everywhere. Other African countries are building industrial railway which is single wagon can carry 80 ton payload. Nigeria is building Light Railway which is only used for carrying people nation of illiterate

NGpatriot:
Lagos Ibadan railway was on the drawing board under OBJ, in fact, he awarded and re-awarded contracts to build it, but as usual in the PDP abandon fashion, he left it dead and it remained dead for 12 years, but PMB started and finished the project in less than 3 years.

Useless GEJ did even bother to touch it with his 6 years in office..

winterfell007:


Stop spewing propanganda. Everyone knows you folks are fond of spewing propaganda. This projects has well being underway during the administration of Umaru Yardua/Jonathan. Julius Berger was handling the construction as at 2012. Buhari came and met the project at 60% completion. Even Buahri gives credit to the previous administration before him for starting it off. So back off with your propanganda

charlypoker:
Does this justifies Buharis incompetence? Bad roads everywhere, one Nincompoop is showing us railway lines and trains that was initiated in GEJ's era.\

I just pity Buhari fans, e get as una take dey......................how una take dey cope self?

Gamesmart:


Firstly, trains do not break-down daily in London. Stop talking crap!

Secondly, the trains that breakdown in London are old stock. They are trains they have used for over 40 years, not like Nigeria's "new" stock.

Lagos-Ibadan is not a light rail service Mr Man.

Posh2018:


Na so life be. Obj took glory for GSM that Abacha started. Which other thing did PDP finished and took glory for in the whole of 16 yrs?

PMB is smart. Finished outstanding project and took glory for it shikina. If eh pain anybody, let then take over from PMB and finished his outstanding projects and take glory for it.

Edibles20:


You don’t know jack about railways and trains. Lagos-Ibadan is light railway?
Delete this comment before Nigerians wake up and drag you

NGpatriot:



PMB already gave us industrial railway, for the first time we transported industrial goods via rail from Warri to Itakpe for the AKK pipeline project.

Your post sef sounds like comedy, but I'll let other people deal with that..

Ovamboland:


How come you did not counter the statement that trains breakdown in Nigeria everyday? You and I know that is not true. Abuja Kaduna railway has operated for 5 years and we've only got reports of breakdown 4 or 5 times. Lagos Ibadan rail has never been reported to breakdown.

Why are you straining yourself to protect UK reputation who don't care about your existence but willing to ignore your motherland?

murmee:
If what you are saying is true, why are they extending the rail lines to Apapa Ports? Is it not to carry cargoes out of Lagos?

SUFFERInSMILIIN:


Payload capacity it is rated as a light railway it can only do under 20 tons per wagon. Show us the trains carry fully loaded containers you cannot. You cannot talk about Nigerians most of them are illiterate they do not even know what happens in their own country. I am telling you I am working on the project and the trains are only meant to carry passengers not luggage or goods. Look at Kenya railway network is carrying top 40 ft containers one on top of the order. Lagos-ibadan railway cannot even carry one fully loaded 40 ft container. If you are not working on the project it is better you just keep quiet

SUFFERInSMILIIN:


The new lagos-ibadan railway is a light railway the Chinese are building light railways and fooling the Nigerian masses. Show me the trains carrying containers as proof the trains can only carry passengers. Let me inform you something 80% of the railway which China built in Nigeria are light railways. This is what they wanted to do in Ghana and Kenya but the government blocked it and and went for industrial railway lines..

Gamesmart:


I did not read that.

Yours accidentally caught my eye and I even saw the capitalised "DAILY".

Next time, read your statements and try and (a) be factual in everything you say and (b) only talk about what you know.

As for Abuja-Kaduna only having 5 breakdowns, so early in their operations? In a country notorious for lack of maintenance? In a country notorious for spending billions to buy second-hand things, touch it up and presenting it as new? What does your brain tell you will be happening after 30 years? Please tell everybody what your brain tells you?

No f**king bleeping excuses to be having breakdown in 5 years. Not even in 10 years.

Next thing you have to learn in life is "Never defend/protect rubbish especiallly because it 'is your own'! NEVER!!!".

You will end up being the one carrying your rubbish because "you are protecting some yeye reputation". Smart people prefer rubbish to be "other's own", not "theirs".

"Your" Nigeria is a shithole, I hope you are proud of its "reputation" that you so want to protect? ..................Until you start hustling for a visa to move to Canada.

You really need to up your reasoning!

The standards you accept (and even rejoice on) will be the types of leaders you get in a democracy.

Ovamboland:


Shut up with your low self esteem and worship of anything Caucasian.
There are many instances of new trains, ships and vehicles in Europe that broke down on the first day of use, even though they are brand new. They may be better than us in many things but they are not gods to be worshipped the you are doing.

Things also do go wrong in their place. Breakdown on the first day or once a year on the average is not conclusive evidence the coaches are refurbished or old.

I'm certain you will defend unsolicited the breakdown in Europe on first day of use of their own transportation items.

Reflect7:


IT IS HIGH SPEED RAIL, which is commonly defined as rail speeds upwards of 200km per hour.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_rail

''Abuja-Kaduna is a 186km line with standard gauge railway tracks from Idu, near Abuja, to Kaduna in the north-western region of Nigeria. It has nine stations and features both passenger and cargo trains. The passenger trains on the line can be operated at a speed between 200km/h and 250km/h.''

Now, this is the typical black monkey!

Okay, list for us 10 of your "many instances of new trains, ships and vehicles in Europe that broke down on the first day of use". Monkey!
