While some are celebrating a common gutter and praising their gutter governor.

Some are still in the dark ages and millions of years behind.

Sad.

Blue and Red lines complementing each other from different parts of Lagos is extra sweet.

When leaders deliver, the people rejoice and celebrate.



Sadly, they deliver only once in a blue moon.

History

The idea of developing a rapid transit in Lagos state, dates back to 1983 with the Lagos Metroline network conceived by Alhaji Lateef Jakande during the Second Nigerian Republic.[7][8][9][10] The initial Metroline project was scrapped in 1985 by Muhammadu Buhari at a loss of over $78 million to the state tax payers.[11] In year 2003, the then governor, Bola Tinubu, revived the rail network for Lagos state with a formal announcement of its construction.[12] The initial cost $135 million was proposed for the greater Lagos Urban Transportation Project to be implemented by the newly formed Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA).[12] LAMATA initially concentrated on developing a Bus Rapid Transit system, running from Mile 12 to Lagos Island. In 2008, LAMATA to make progress with the rail project, focusing on the Blue Line and the Red Line

It's 21st century and other countries are moving maad with unmatched development and we're here celebrating mediocrity. Rail track that is not up 40km, dangote refinery that is yet to refine even a single crude.

This rail track is world standard and better than some in US and UK

Remove Ambode from the list, he practically abandon the project during his tenure, one of the reasons the light train project was delayed

Congratulations to Gov. Sanwo-Olu and all previous istrations of Lagos State on the successful Launch of the Blue Line of the Light Rail System in Lagos State.

This remarkable achievement has undoubtedly contributed to the development and progress of Lagos State & Nigeria as a whole.

The potential for job creation by utilizing Nigeria's steel industry to build more rail systems in cities across the Nigerian Federation is there.
By investing in the construction of these systems, we can not only improve transportation infrastructure but also provide employment opportunities for many Nigerians. This will not only give Nigerians a brighter future, But encourage and give more Africans all over the world a brighter future and hope.

Furthermore, this initiative would allow young Nigerians to gain valuable experience in creating and managing complex systems of infrastructure.
It would provide them with the opportunity to develop their skills and contribute to the growth of Nigeria.

We believe that by harnessing the potential of Nigeria's steel industry and investing in the expansion of rail systems, we can create a brighter future for Nigeria. Relevant stakeholders should explore this possibility and work towards the realization of this vision.


Sincerely,
Amhatu W
