Wow 😂😂 new train don dy get fault

nawahhhhhh ooooo

Am on my way there, I will pick them with my private jet...tell them to just hide from bandits please

Lack of Maintenance is one of the problem of Nigerians,always love to acquire but to maintain it is anothing

This inconsistency in transportation is killing Nigerian businesses.

What it means is that only one engine head was attached to multiple coaches, which obviously must be overloaded. In the US, at least 2, or more engine heads are attached to the coaches for more power and speed. In one instance,I saw 6 engine heads combined,pulling long containers

Yesterday I saw a video of a woman that removed her pant in the of the road for 20,000 Naira, poverty is a serious problem, people are concerned about today more than tomorrow, that is why people will still sell their votes.

Lol, the travelling has turned to excursion,or should i say tourism inside bush. It is well.

Am not surprised to hear this story, for i knew this will happen. You can't go and buy 1968 new model lokomotive train and fix it and you expect it to work normal.

Zoo

You are just using style to give Fulani terrorists herdsmen bandits Kidnappers information abi?

🤣🤣🤣 It's part of the adventure. With enough patriotism, prayers and good wishes, we can get the trains and the refineries working. Let's be patient. It took the US 200 years and if it takes us 5000 years, we still tried.

Is there a Kano-Lagos train service?

Those who believe in the fake & corrupt project will risk their live going by train where those bastard killer herdsmen could attack at anytime.

Wen you hear get ur poverty validation card just know say na them. Agents of neo colonialism.

You only suffer for a day now. You will still suffering this same thing in 2023 if you ♻️recycle the same corrupt man.

We told them to be watchful of China now you see? They have succeeded in Handing over to Nigeria a painted train from their trash bin at a price that leaves our next generation in debt. China should be sued for installing a train that puts the lives of Nigerians at risk

If you see Nigeria politicians run 🏃‍♀️ oooo

Welcome to Nigeria

Lobatan…. If you Nigeria politicians run 🏃‍♀️ oooo

They can't even maintain the trains purchased by Jonathan but jumping around seeking for another loan to build for Niger Republic. If incompetence was a Gov't.

_sonofkhalid_ There is no rail track from Kano to Lagos for this train you have in your picture here, unless the person went to take the old locomotive train that goes from Kano to Lagos once a week that barely functions

😂😂😂😂

So, with all the money we borrowed, this is the best we could get and fashola will come out to say they have performed more than US government in infrastructure. What a failed government with failed mindset.

'Here nothing works..' trains in UK , France and other climes have been working uninterrupted for over a century. Here can't a train working for a few days without one story or another? If not fire, then breakdown or track uprooted. Are we cursed? Tufiakwa

Wayo trains on the railways. Clearly these are refurbished coaches because the incessant breakdowns allover the country is embarrassing and not safe for movement mtcheeew.

No need to broadcast. Kidnappers, The information is not for you.

How does a train even breakdown omo this country

Some useless fools will be saying Buhari has successfully upgrade Nigeria rail system, is this not the rail they pumped billions of dollars on stop in the stopped in the middle of the bush. Refurbished train bought by Buhari and his Ministers

Welcome to Nigeria 😔🥲
