You spend over $3 billion dollars for rail ways and you are expecting $170 million dollars in 10 years ..... Am sure it cost more than $50 million to run these trains yearly My issue is we Borrowed money to build this rubbish trains that has little or no economic benefits... How can you borrow money to build something that would make u spend more money Socialism is anti development If $3 billion dollars were given to pharmaceutical companies in Nigeria since 2015 as a loan at 5% 1) we would have that money back again plus 5% interest 2) we would be a net exporter of drugs earning dollars 3) companies revenues would grow increasing government revenue 4) thousand would be employed increasing payee tax 5) GDP would have grown by at least 8 billion dollars If we give that to garment factory If we used that money to revive aluminum company in ikot ekpene If we used that money to help glass importers set u floating glass factory If we used that money to help Leather works industry If we used that money to make improved agriculture seedlings available Each of this would yeild more Just like the useless awolowo cocoa house that can never break even in this life or the next... Nigerian APC leaders like feel good projects... To them economic viability is not important Just build it let people praise us 20 Likes 2 Shares |

Tech will always destroy easy frauds. The type of corruption going on the railway system is too massive. My wife's friend that came from kaduna to abuja yesterday told us that she couldn't get ticket even after getting there on time. She said that the official staff there buy all the tickets at 3k and sell it there over the counter for 7k. We have a long way to go as a country 6 Likes |

It should be e-ticketing at slightly reduced rate to the same day or cash rate. But the machines need to work and sack staff with top 10% failure rate (suspected) tampering as a capability issue. thedio: 2 Likes |

You dont seem to understand the benefit of effective transportation to economic growth, business and development. It transcends cashback, has multiplier effect on growth. I currently run a project in Kaduna with my business based in abuja. I am able to plan my movement and cummute with ease, both my abuja and kaduna business are running smothly, imagine knowing you cannot miss an appointment beacuse the train is always on time no delays or hitches. This is what investors look at to make business investment decisions mrvitalis: 18 Likes 2 Shares |
