What's wrong with taking loans to build infrastructure that has potential to pay back the loans?
Won't your parents take loans to send you to UK for studies?

Propagenda as usual let them show us the Warri stations, then I will believe. Because I know they have not started that project as we speak.

Point of correction, this project is done by the Chinese government, it's a loan for Nigeria to repay, they won't tell you that. Bloody thieves

Prosperity, of the type wrought by modern rail networks, and other social provisions, leads to peace. Where people are content, there's no fight.

And who said trains are not important, mr zombie? What am saying here is simple, why waste so much just to use a 19th century locomotive train in 2018, the trains Europeans and Americans stop using for like 50yrs ago. They train you Apc liars even claimed to have commissioned some couple of months ago are even in bad shapes.

Why can't we remodel our rail system like that of China? Abi are the Chinese people not the same people constructing the rail tracks and selling refurbished trains for that moronic ameachi?
China, Cuba, Indonesia, Serbia and other places, use steam locomotives to this day.

http://cs.trains.com/trn/f/111/t/66639.aspx

Oh, and ''In 2014, France's locomotive and railcar fleet consisted of more than 5,700 vehicles.''

https://www.statista.com/statistics/495660/locomotive-and-transit-railcars-in-selected-countries-worldwide/

It's hardly a surprise then that Nigeria may use diesel locomotives. Many other places do, too, and they are not ''outdated''. In Nigeria's case, the reason for diesel locomotive engines is because of power unreliability, which makes electric-run trains unviable at present.

You joker. From 1960, we have being passing through this circles only to host the poorest people. You cannot build on a much divided country that is why after the whole thing we are still where we started. Nigeria need a relative peace to showcase.

This train passes through Uromi. I was but a little boy,wearing pants and running on the streets when we used to play on the abandoned track. Then people used curse the many governments that came and passed without them making an attempt to complete the project. The people just wished the project will ever be completed. But alas after many years, there came along a certain old man, that alot of ignorant fellows have cursed and continued to curse, they call him names,all sorts of derogatory names, they have seen nothing good in this old man..but this old man have finally completed the project. A project that that was abandoned for like eternity. A project that is essential to the revitalising of Ajeokuta steel plant.
If you are a Nigerian,especially a poor Nigerian and is yet to see any achievement of Buhari's administration,then I put it to you that you are a fool. If you are a Nigerian and you are still joining those corrupt unpatriotic politicians to ask 'what have Buhari done' then you are a compound fool. Just open your mind, your eyes and senses, just be a little more objective and you will come to realise Buhari is doing well.
Bros take it easy on those irritating brats, it is not as if they are not seeing the good deeds of Buhari but their pain is that their party PDP and especially their cherished and adopted son GEJ couldn't deliver all thereby making Buhari to outshine their beloved is what is killing them.
Now tell me why people living along those rail tracks won't be blessing Buhari in their daily prayers, nobody would need to tell them why the rail tracks has now come alive, Bubu is now in charge.

This track was built and completed by Julius Berger during Obasenjo's tenure to move steel from Ajaokuta to Warri. The Train failed to kick start due to Ajaokuta's failure to pick up. What APC did is just to convert an already built and abandoned rail to passenger carrier.
APC did not build that track. They only brought in locomotive trains to run the tracks and carry passengers. Those of us that travel to the east always cross the overhead bridge at Agbor very close the the custom check point by AP fuel station. Those of us that travel to Abraka from Agbor cross the overhead bridge at Itakpe.
It has now been put to use unlike before when money was allocated for it yearly but still remaining at the same level.

Agreed it's a loan to be paid back, why didn't PDP borrow too to fix it?
Good enough this administration is borrowing to improve infrastructure unlike GEJ and others who borrowed to pay salaries because they had looted everything left and no money to pay salaries.

Re: Senate Hails Buhari On Completion Ajaokuta-warri Rail During Test Run Inspection by Titogbanski: 6:14am On Nov 08, 2018
One, the rail line had always been there, not commission.

Two, the line was concieved to carry iron ore from Itakpe Kogi state to Delta Steeel Company. Converting it to a passenger railway is a major decision. Might be good because we have not seen trains in Delta before. But strategically I still think the original idea was lofty.

Three, revamping DSC and privatising it will be most appreciated becuase of the economic boost it will give the area. I hear we have spent billions at Ajaokuta but nothing at DSC which is the most modern and viable.

Four, I hear the railway is narrow guage which might make it not be able to handle modern trains. Anyway the cureent administration did not build the railway so cannot be held liable for this.

Yes, he did. Buhari military regime is counted as part of the 35 wasted years. Saboteurs like you did not allow Buhari to drink water and drop cup in his first term as Military Head of State before you brought that vegetable called IBB to booth the people's general out.

If this is true and you cannot see anything good in it, then you must have given your mind to too much hatred and in the process lost the rational part of you.

Hatred most times affects perspective and choice making; it's like virus to the spiritual wellbeing of its host. it is so dangerous that if you don't work on it, you will end up condemning yourself and what you live for.

What you heard is wrong.

Its a standard guage and not a narrow gauge so it can handle modern trains. Also this current administration practically rebuilt the rail lines because after over 30 years of abandonment most of the iron on the rails had been vandalised and also rusted out. They had to re-lay much of the track and also continued from where the original track laying stopped.

Why were you not using it when it was completed by Julius berger? You are even mentioning that it started from Obasanjo, you are not ashamed 16 yes is not enough to complete and commission? They embesseled the money allocated to it and here somebody with his integrity complete the work for use in 3yrs. Somebody who finishes takes the glory! Thank you Buhari, we see you in Aso rock till 2023!
