Not a single word in your post has anything to do with my post.

1) Who gives a shit whether it was PDP, APC, Labour Party or QRX? What does that have to do with my post?

2) What the hell does its economic viability have to do with my post??

Is it a railway line and is it in the South-South??

The Chinese should support us in the aspect of transmitting this lights too. We are not transmitting everything we're generating.

Tinubu administration must make sure Lagos is connected with sokoto, and Maiduguri is connected with PH by railway line before he leaves in 2031.

Soltix9y:
I think it's 98% of the containers that end up in the south east not 70% as u said.

Started what again? Abeg it's too early to remind Nigerians of the locust years of HE Goodluck Jonathan.

We're on this dream since 1960, which were now celebrate 63 year's of independent, what do you want to achieve from now until 2031, fraudulent mentality won't allow it to happen

mrvitalis:
APC is actually doing development upside down really there problem is fundamental

You build the people then infrastructure follows not build infrastructure first

If you build infrastructure first what would happen is the people would be too poor to patronize those infrastructure which would make them to be subsidized and would make maintenance difficult causing the infrastructure to fail.... Sounds familiar?

Step one raise revenue ( natural resources, borrow, tax anyhow)

Step two invest in your people ( education, soft credit, access to machinery, access to advanced tools , improved seedlings, simplified and low interest loans easily accessible etc)

Step three, your people grow rich start demanding infrastructure they know they can afford... Then you tax the and build infrastructure


This is how development works.. You don't build what is not needed

Meanwhile it is America and UK that Nigerians worship and suck up to. What have the Americans and British done in Nigeria? In life, Know your true friends by those who will invest in your prosperity in your dreams and not those who give you handouts and entrench dependency.

So this is what APC and their people see as Nigeria? No South East?? Not even South South?

I really want to see how Lekki sea ports would function.... We are waiting to see how it would work

For Lekki port to function it must be allowed to receive every type of cargo... For that to work the law must change

Most people dont understand what i mean ...
Right now you can only import certain things through certain ports

Onne can only do machinery and cars with few others

Textile must come through tincan and apapa

Pharmaceutical and chemicals must come through apapa not even tincan is allowed to handle them

For Lekki port to work all ports have to be made equal and if all ports are equal since 70% of all containers end up in South east what would be the point of using Lagos port?

Firstly that was a PDP project and was 90+% completion when APC took over

And yes it a very useless project have little or no economic viability we don't need such now at all

mrvitalis:
You wasted money on trains? Trains that can't break even?

Yes railway infrastructure is good important for economic development... But they are notoriously unprofitable..

So it makes no sense why Nigeria should borrow to build railways it's economic stupidity

You use borrowed money to do things that can generate enough money to pay back it's loan

You sent them packing with indigenization decree of 1979; your greedy elite group who want replace the white.

Richfella1:
My good friend, please where did you get this stat?

I am a fellow Igbo man and just looking to learn.

From a quick Google search, the South East makes up roughly 18% of the population.

@me
So rail transport is not needed? Check the amount of revenue generated by the lagos-Ibadan rail line within few months of commissioning.

Khyrvxjzy:
you are right

but interstate train is not profitable but intercity like lagos is profitable the only interstate that will be profitable should be for cargo

Shikena:
We already had 55 years of independence before APC with all sorts of academic theories. We have been building people and we have always had trains, roads, water plants, fire setvices etc even before independence. What exactly was built that was not needed?

kolexy:
The Lekki port is a Lagos state government led and private sector funded project.

Khyrvxjzy:
what are you saying bro

am part of those people you said wont understand what you are saying
