Just hope the next president would stop this project ...in a saner clime this is an impeachable offence Nigerian should come first, You can not be a Nigeria president and at the same time be working against Nigeria.

Una too funny for this country and some of you actually know but make statements out of mischief. Niger Chad and burkina faso are land locked countries which needs access to the sea and taking advantage of that is a very good economic decision. The point is access to sea.
Already a lot of trade take place between these countries....rail lines will make it easier and make goods cheaper. North and south Nigeria is linked by rail both in the west (lagos to kano) and in the east (PH to Maiduguri) new ones are being built so its not as if we dont have trains connecting the country....yes we need more
