Dis guys defended bubus incompetence then. Now you want to turn amala and tell me that South East lawmakers failed us. U b real ode.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Why you dey shift goal post?... I never mentioned Lagos Calabar line. Okay so the coastal line is having issues since 2017? What about the Eastern narrow gauge line? Dis wan too dey get issues?.... So how the South East lawmakers stop the portharcourt to maiduguri narrow gauge line

Your problem is that you are mixing things up together.

The one they called Eastern Rail is the one that runs from PH to Maiduguri and work is already going on that route.

The bone of contention in my argument with BlueRayDick was the Lagos to Calabar railline.

The PH to Maiduguri line is a reconstruction, they are reconstructing the existing line there while the Lagos to Calabar is a new line to be built from scratch.

The reconstruction of the PH to Maiduguri line started last year.

You keep jumping into discussion you have no idea about and then begin to jump from pillar to post.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Both the standard & narrow gauge line are all having issues? But the Kano maradi standard line is not having issues... Abuja to kaduna & Lagos to ibadan were issue free...



Nice one

It's not my fault that you are unable to read properly.

What I have been arguing about with since is the Lagos to Calabar rail and I keep mentioning it in all my post.

If you are talking about the PH to Maiduguri railline, work is ongoing on the line.

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Please how did South East lawmakers attack the project?

Asadu was asking a legitimate question which is line with the principle of fairness and accountability....

I'm pained that I've just wasted my time with you since if you dont know the difference between Lagos to Calabar and PH to Maiduguri.

Please get lost abeg.

Tempus fugit.

Work stopped @ the site since last year. Fg said there is no fund to prosecute the project. maybe u can bring evidence that work has resumed.

Yeah

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Yeah

It's not my fault you are unable to read. In the link you posted, the minister even said that they have been working on the project with the funds budgeted by the govt and the reason why the project is slow is because they havent gotten the loan funding they were expecting.

The minister said this last year december because they were asking him if the project will be delivered before Buhari leave office.

Be like na only headline you sabi read.

otondo u have not told us hw SE lawmakers stopped FG from getting the foreign loan 2 complete the Eastern narrow gauge. next time u think b4 u talk.

[color=royalblue]Maybe it is my own understanding, but i think a Lagos-Calabar rail would yield a better and faster ROI than Kano-Maradi.

I don't even see how only 2 Senators are enough to stop a bill/project. A rail from Lagos to Calabar cannot have only Abaribe complaining. Lagos have Senators. Same for Ogun, Ondo, Edo, Delta and all the states on that corridor. So which one be say na Abaribe stop am?

I just dey ask oh

Na just propaganda , the talk holds no water in the face of proper scrutiny and critical thinking .

It’s beer parlor gist taken too far . It’s no different from Shetimma saying Lagos was a super slum before Tinubu became the governor

liveLongNprospa:
BTW.. Seun has allowed us to start searching for old posts with people's username 😁

I don't understand

hopefulLandlord:
I don't understand

During the heat of campaign season, I think he stopped it. So you could only search but without usernames.

But now it's back again.
You can search "Donjazet subsidy"

I no too know the story, but just reading from both sides, it is hard to comprehend how two senators ensured that it didn't work.

The biggest beneficiaries of a rail network are those where it starts, and those where it terminates.

Abaribe and his Abia do not fall into any of that category. So what were Lagos and Cross River senators saying when Abaribe was opposing?

My English no too good sha. Na night school I go.[/color]

The Lagos to Calabar railine is an expensive project. It's to cost $11.12bn and constructed by CCECC. Exim Bank of China was supposed to fund the project.

This was when the project was signed in 2016.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vanguardngr.com/2016/07/fg-ccecc-sign-mou-11-12bn-lagos-calabar-railway-project/amp/

In September 2017 after series of outrage about Chinese loans and the likes, Exim bank then refused to fund the project which means the govt have to look for another partner for the project.

4yrs after in 2021, the FG approved the project again to CCECC and the search for investor to invest in the railline began again.

https://www.thecable.ng/fec-approves-11bn-for-lagos-calabar-coastal-rail-project/amp

In Oct 2022, The minister for transportation announced they have reached an advanced agreement with Standard Chartered Group to finance 85% of the project while the govt finance the remaining 15%.

If Exim bank of China had not withdrawn from the project, the project will surely have been completed. In that time space, the Lagos - Ibadan rail was constructed, the Itapke to Warri line was completed, the Ibadan to Kano line construction has started also while the PH to Maiduguri line reconstruction started also.

This is the route of the Lagos to Calabar railline. Theres no way Abariabe will say the route didnt follow Aba.

Maybe you are talking of the Eastern corridor. PH to Maiduguri.

The old Eastern corridor line pass through only Abia and Enugu but the approved reconstruction will also pass through Anambra, Imo and Ebonyi taking the states the PH to Maiduguri line will pass through to 14 from 10.

[color=royalblue]I am not disputing your story.

What i can't understand is when you said SE senators, with you naming 2, are responsible for it not happening then.

How can 2 senators be the reason, when there are more than 24 senators that are going to benefit from it?

If Abaribe was outraged by the fact that it was a Chinese loan, what did the senator from Cross River or Bayelsa or Lagos say? Nothing.

I don't think the project was stalled because 2 SE senators opposed it, and you know it isn't true too.[/color]

The Lagos senators already have a Lagos to Kano route that will pass through all SW states all the way to Kano.

If they are to chose one, I know the one they will most likely chose. Infact the completed Lagos to Ibadan line is testament.

Projects like this is all about collaboration.

[color=royalblue]9 states will be beneficiaries of the rail project.

That's 27 senators represented in the house

So when Abaribe was opposing it, what did the remaining 24 senators say?[/color]
