Nobody respects your win in either case. As for the former, majority of Igbos definitely don't respect the win. If we had the kind of assistance you guys had, even with sw and the north combined, we for win una in 6 months maximum. If igbo and core north combine even without external help, we for win una. If igbo and yorubas combine without external help, we go win una. But if una 2 combine without external help, we go win una.


So stop basking on past fluke glory. Obi sef, una no win squarely.

A time, soon enough, will come when Igbos will fight for their dignity, respect, and freedom. All those oil wells in the east and SS, will be cut off from your armor, and you cowards will have to decide to respect us or fight us; then after the dust settles- how ever long it takes, you will find out that all that infrastructure has been destroyed. Everyone will have to start from square one, then we will see if you cowards can make another HOV.

Being unnecessarily bittered will make you look and sound stupid.
Why you dey shift the goal post? Was this your first argument?

You don't have to respect the win. THE WINNER IS THE WINNER.

helpee:
This is a disgrace. You just confirmed verbatim what the guy said that you were defeated with wisdom and not muscle. Is it not foolishness to start a war without external support, without partnership and waste millions of lives of your people when you knew you could not win?

To make the matter worse, your aim is to destroy the infrastructure in Yoruba land rather than developing your own infrastructure and when people call you Sadeast, you get agitated. When they say your aim during Endsars was to jealously destroy the infrastructure in Yoruba land, you get agitated.

Even if you destroy the Yoruba land completely, your fish brain cannot build a nation. You have learnt nothing since Ojukwu led you to the slaughter-slab. You have learnt nothing about partnership, about network building, about patience and resilience, about respect and patriotism.

You are still living in the stone age. No wonder, your people trooped to the streets to celebrate street lights in 2024, the same way they were trooping to lagos and SW in the eighties with only knickers and bago bags.

Nigeria’s transport sector is set for a revolution as the Lagos-Abuja High-Speed Bullet Train gains momentum, reducing travel time between both cities from 12 hours to just 2–3 hours.

The Director of Operations at Geofocus Consortium, Engineer Yinka Idris, in a statement made available to journalists on Tuesday, described the project as a milestone in Nigeria’s development. Idris lauded President Bola Tinubu’s administration for prioritising infrastructure and fostering Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) to drive economic growth.

According to Idris, the bullet train will provide a faster, safer, and more efficient alternative to road travel.

Idris said that the initiative aligned with Tinubu’s vision of leveraging private sector expertise to deliver world-class infrastructure without overburdening public finances.

“Currently, travelers between Lagos and Abuja face long hours in traffic, safety concerns, and reduced productivity,” he said. He said that the project would significantly ease movement, enhance trade, and improve the overall business environment.

“As part of the development, ten smart cities with 10,000 housing units each will be built along the rail corridor.“An independent power plant will also be constructed to support the train and surrounding infrastructure,” he said.

Idris said that the Lagos-Abuja bullet train is expected to create thousands of jobs during construction and after completion.

He said that the initiative aligned with Tinubu’s commitment to reducing unemployment and fostering economic prosperity through major infrastructure projects.

“With feasibility studies completed and proof of funds secured, the project now awaits approvals from the Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC) and the Federal Executive Council (FEC) before construction begins,” he said.

Idris said that the construction phase is expected to last between 48 and 52 months


He said its completion would promote the project as Nigeria’s largest-ever PPP-driven initiative and a benchmark for transport infrastructure across Africa.

Beyond transportation, Idris said the bullet train would reduce road congestion, lower carbon emissions, and extend the lifespan of highways.

He said that such would represent a major step toward sustainable and environmentally friendly infrastructure development.

“As Nigeria moves closer to realizing this dream, citizens can anticipate a future of seamless travel, improved quality of life, and enhanced economic opportunities under President Tinubu’s leadership,” he added.

EXOUSIAng:
This is a project by a fellow human being like you not the government.
Ordinary gutter in front of your house you can't fix, someone started a company grew it to the extent of carrying out a project like this and what your small brain can think of is trash and hate.. No wonder you are where you are

EXOUSIAng:
Great development.
The private sector will always invest in a country where they believe in the government.
The Tinubu led government is a government one can trust

EXOUSIAng:
If you read even 3 lines out of the report you would see clearly that it is a private company.
That you cannot read before running your mouth indicates stupidity.
I have allergy for that...

Next time read, understand before displaying your real self

EXOUSIAng:
Your reality is not the general experience of Nigerians.
This is not a government project but private, aside from complaining and nagging like a bad wife, what have you done for Nigeria?

EXOUSIAng:
Only government can fund such a project ,just as government funded Dangotes refinery, funded, the ongoing BUA refinery.
It is unfortunate that people like you don't even know that the private sector controls more of the economy than the FG. If your reality you don't know that they are companies out there who can sponsor this.
Hitec was going to sponsor the Lagos-Calabar coastal Road...

And read again, they have the funds ready,they are only waiting for approval

Alliswell248:
It would work
They don't need your permission to make it work.

maasoap:
If you understand the kind of project they are proposing, you would have known that it is not something that they can start and finish.

Alliswell248:
Okay....
Thank you
It's going to work

David hundeyin told you guys that dangote refinery is a scam.
Is it not working today?

we have learnt our lesson.
Igbos never go around being destructive. As for the protest, most igbos didn't participate - una vex; if igbos participate - una go still vex. Normal igbo life in Nigeria. Do - them go vex; no do - dem go still vex.

I don't think igbos are jealous of Lagos, because the rest of the yoruba land are not doing much to be jealous of, if igbos were jealous at all. One thing is clear, Majority of Lagos was built by blocking the igbo development, by cheating the igbos with that one Nigeria 419 bullshit, and oil money. In due time, those loop holes will be closed.


If we face genocide and are fighting back, and foreign help comes, we will definitely destroy lives and properties; afterall that's what you genocide tribes are doing to us and will do it more in an open conflict. Don't be mad that we are fighting back.


If everybody starts from sq 1, Igbos will be 20 to 30 years ahead of sw, and 1000 years ahead of the core north. Know this and know peace.

helpee:
If everyone starts afresh, Igbos will be a pariah nation. Nobody builds a nation with fraud and drugs. No country will allow your Biafra passports into their lands. No one will do business with a country full of drug lords etc. In the end, your people will still be trooping to the North or SW for recognition. Igbos are able to hide under the banner of one Nigeria to ruin the reputation of this country and the citizens. When you stand alone, the world will see you for who you are .

Secondly, Igbos never contributed anything to build Nigeria so stop saying you were deprived to build lagos. What did you contribute to build lagos?

SW contributed Cocoa, North contributed Groundnut and more recently , South south contributed oil, what did SE ever contribute with their landlocked 5 states?

viodemus:
Why are you acting this way today?

Do you want us to spill our problems out on the internet? You and I, and others that know, know what am talking about.

helpee:
Bros, as at the last count, I've been to more than 80 countries. You really need to travel far and wide to know the perception of the World about Igbos. They know specifically who are the people causing Nigerian problem. The problem is that our passports are not separated by tribe. You really don't know how much one Nigeria is protecting the Igbos.

Biafra passport will be the most useless in the world if you ever achieve Biafra.

Once again, what did Igbo ever contribute to the development of Nigeria?

Even as at today, the SE contributes the least to the national purse and gets the largest percentage while the SW and SS contributes the most. Out of the top five highest earners SW has three.

Tell me again what have you ever contributed with your five landlocked states?
