exx: I just had to comment on this sha...I initially was impressed about the monorail initiative until i saw it live and all I can say is that it is a huge waste of resources in the state..pretty yes! but a waste. Anybody body seeing only the pictures will not know that how short and useless the the train path is angry.
My full 4 months in port-harcourt I have had only once needed to pass by the train route and it is annoyingly alongside a major road which funny enough is quite good. I'm not pro or anti Ameachi oh...but he could have done better...so many important roads around the city that are sooo bad, he just started doing ordinance/slaughter road after 8 year! 8 years!!!...abeg i just tire to talk jor...he's still better than my state governor undecided
@Bold:
You are so wrong. It is NOT a waste. If in the next few years the project is expanded to cover more places, it will boost transportation, business and development.

And don't forget the psychological impact as well (the type a villager get after visiting the city AND the type you get after traveling abroad say Dubai, Paris, London, etc). You tend for be a lot more positive and creative after spending sometime in "white elephants" like this.

Keep screaming at the Forest. Here is a pack of Vicks Lemon Plus and Tomtom grin grin grin

Governor Chibuike Amaechi is an APC Governor - if you cannot wrap your head around it, scream till the earth stop spinning.

Naija will be better tomorrow......only if we, as a pple make good choices today. Vote wisely come 2015. Don't vote because you are asked/forced/coerced/bribed/paid/incited to do so. Don't vote based on social/religious/ehno-tribal biases. Vote for who you are convinced will secure a better tomorrow for your children and their children.


Na as God take send me nai I tell una ooo

Johnnyessence: definitely ameachi worth to be our vice president elect come 2015 and kwakwanso our president elect come 2015 elections.
Why not Amaechi for president and Kwankwanso for Vice President?

amaechi did all these while he was still under PDP.

Let those of us who actually LIVE in Port Harcourt confirm that the monorail is operational, and let them give us figures as to how many people are actually being transported on a daily basis.

No be by picture.

Jonathan like his supporters has no valid ideas - once they are done insulting you, nothing else is left up stirs. May God bless Governor Amaechi for the foundation he has laid. It is something others can build upon for the good of Rivers State. To God be the Glory!

You saw work going on, pictures provided and you still want to deny Amaechi - woow! - It must be very difficult being a Jonathan's supporter grin grin grin grin

OK... this is sooo annoying... obviously no one on this thread lives in PHC...... it took 8 years to build one monorail station... with about 50 concrete pillars....leading from a distance i will gladly stroll than climb up to buy a ticket..... (some say it is in phases) but the money spent on one single pillar can......
well i am sure even the OP doesnt believe in the monorail.... kindly show us more rail stations not different views of one single station that took 8years to build... Rom wasnt built in a day.. but at least rome was heading somewhere,,,

All we know is that this project can be built upon. And this is heading somewhere.

enigmang: Dude Rivers State will always remain a PDP state quote me anywhere.... We still play tribal politics no matter how we try to deny it... Elections are won in the council wards... And when it comes to grassroot support Amaechi really doesn't have it.
At least we know what's eating your grapes..

You are a great man and a true patriot. I respect people like you who address issues as it is as far its to the benefits of Nigerians. God bless you
ochejoseph: I Am not a Fan of the Rivers state Governor but God Knows that these pics say more than a Millions words .

Credit must be given to this man on the mono rail he has done well on this project despite the withdrawal of the initial partners. the quality of coaches , the quality of work done the design and colors adapted are fantastic .

Best wishes to the Good People of Rivers State they are the winners here

My brother, not as you think. No logical gov will key in into that project unless for embezzlement purposes. Admit it's an economic waste. Not all gas or crude fields are exploited, reason been when the cost of exploitation is far way above the profit; the field is either abandoned our given to smaller operator or will just be termed an occurrence. Hope you get the logic now. IT WAS A TOTAL WASTE CONSIDERING THE NEED IT WAS SUPPOSED TO ADDRESS AND THE MEANS TO ADDRESS IT.

Just like the impeached APC governor of Adamawa state who stole all the money while he was still under PDP?

Amenities like ds should be privatized if the state government really want it to stand the test of time.
Re: Porthacourt Monorail In A Thousand Words (PICTURES) by manuch(m): 12:01pm On Oct 04, 2014
my fear for this project is that it is obvious that this project will not be completed by the time Ameachi leaves office . the new governor comes in and the norm is he stops all ongoing projects and sets up panel to look into the contract . they will take couple of years all this time the projects are abandoned or abandoned completely.
Re: Porthacourt Monorail In A Thousand Words (PICTURES) by Ovamboland(m): 12:25pm On Oct 04, 2014
Some minds are so clueless that such a project cannot drop in their mind not to talk of actually building anything. Only share the loot, buy properties in SA and Ghana and Europe and give some stomach infrastructure to the masses is all they know
Re: Porthacourt Monorail In A Thousand Words (PICTURES) by brainpower(m): 12:53pm On Oct 04, 2014
These pictures are funny. To me the only thing the OP has succeeded in doing is reminding us that there's a major white elephant project in the state except for those that don't live in PH and so will not know what I'm talking about. But the project is a very good project and I hope the next governor will endeavour to complete it but for the remaining 7months, it can't be completed. And I also think it should have been situated at ikwerre road, mile 3 across mile 1 to town maybe or better still started from eleme junction to atleast garrison cos these places are where we always have hold ups. I have never met a serious hold up at azikiwe road except for traffic. But I believe the governor is making serious plans towards who succeeds him so that these projects he is leaving will be completed.
