Why Is The Lagos Electric Train Not In Use After 20 Years? by thainuhna: 3:23am On Mar 07, 2023
I was born in Lagos and grew up in Lagos. I remember always seeing about this Lagos electric train project.

I was very excited for our Lagos then. I thought one day we too we'll be able to do shakara to abroad people that we're using electric train sha grin

Only for Nigeria to show it true color. Year in year out Im following this project, in fact is like I grew into a man following it. undecided Story after story, Lagos state keep commissioning unfinished project.

After 20 years plus more than one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000) swallowed, now I read they're still testing? You can imagine how much might have been embezzled with this conduit.
What exactly can we get right in Nigeria?

Or if anyone has actually used the train please can you share with us?
