The day any ipob or Obidient step foot on this train is the day I will believe indeed the ipob tribe is the most foolish tribe on the face of Earth though Uwazirike declared so before but I do not believe so. I am w aiting patiently for Ipob not to enter train that was being pushed with hand. 4 Likes 1 Share |

A good palliative from the government would have been to subsidize the transport sector especially in Lagos and Abuja instead of the small rice and oil handouts they're giving. 7 Likes 1 Share |

After an hour u pay another 1.75. Trains is about 2.00 per trip. Meanwhile for 12.00 u can buy a travel card that covers buses and trains in London for a whole day, up till 12:00 4 Likes |

KnowAll:How do you plan to maintain or expand it, if you are charging below cost? I'm sure you still want the people to work there to get paid like their counterparts in the west. You just have to choose one. You can't have it both ways. |
