@@ikpeessien7399 self hate. Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, were you using that derogatory words to describe Lagos before umtil you hear it come from a particular person, stop being resentful of the devopment.

Thank you Dave, you are right but even with standardized railway and subway system in NYC, New Yorkers can't do without efficient bus system. That's why, there's bus lane all around d 5 boroughs especially Manhattan, you see buses navigating btw NJ to NY, BXM, QX, BM, SIM buses everytime. I think taking a step at a time will help Nigeria. Lagos is getting there, the next project might be a very good railway system.

I bet @Ikpe hasn't even been to New York, if had, he would swallow whatever the heck he spitted! Mumu

Well the train is already on board and the one along Oshiodi will be in operation soon enough

100% Correct,technology is the only way out to close the gap between africa western world.

Henry Woodbell tribalistic fool. Is it Lagos state money they used to build the project or our oil money dummy . Your Lagos state is nothing without us !!

Plss i have been following this idiot Henry since on KZfaq and he is just so tribalistic...plss you people should notice him and we should all Report this Bad Human Being.....

Henry wood well, thread softly!

The generic fundamental for such project to spring up everywhere in the country and continue to perform is first the citizen needs change of mindset. It can work!

@Tafida Gadzama i salute you brother.

Yoruba people don't have maintenance issues ok. It's a Yoruba land project not Nigeria ok.

Henry Woodbell shut up it’s a Nigerian project

I stand with u my pretty sister Amina and also Chris Ogene. Nigerians lack maintaince culture. Henry can be be mature and not embarrass itself further.

2030!

I even thought it was a light rail station 😔, a bus terminal will only cause more traffic, because more buses will be on the road

Finally someone is using their brain. They can call this whatever they like, it is a hub! Hubs are large nodes in a distribution network fed by smaller nodes and channels. Without the other parts of a distribution network being revamped, revamping a hub alleviates nothing! Ok, you depart from this "interchange", to and through where? Same bad and congested roads will have to be plied, same bus stops will have to be used. Will all lagosian teleport themselves to the interchange to get a bus? No, you will get your bus at your stop. It may pass through the interchange or it may not. Does it reduce the amount of buses on the road? If so, by how much? How much time does it save at Oshodi alone? This is what is known as a white elephant project! Ambode should have completed the lagos badagry rail and not this massive waste of money! Lagos needs rail!! Now, be cynics, be skeptics and ask yourselves why were more crucial projects not completed? Projects that could actually boost Lagos' IGR, decongest lagos' roads, as well as transport more people faster throughout the length of the state in a greener more efficient manner? Well, the cynic in me will say "contracts initiated by a governor are easier to profit from (in cash or reputation) by said governor".

The project is actually in the Lagos Development Blueprint, which predates Ambode

Before Ambode came into power, there is a blueprint for this project so stop saying what you dont know, once Sawolu comes into power he will follow suit that's why APC slogan in Lagos is continuity

Isaiah J (and Jayman Jay), this project was solely Ambode’s so please give credit to whom it is due. There is NO Oshodi Interchange in the Lagos State Development Plan 2012-2025, and I have a copy right in front of me so you are free to cite the page and section where it is listed.

@@jaymanjay2835 You're now as quiet as a mouse, Mr. ITK...after being fact-shamed. Haha haha

@@Empbruder Wrong, that project is part of Lagos blueprint maybe not modify as this, there is not project that will not pass through the Lagos house of assembly and any project that is not laid on ground will surely have problems passing through the house especially magnitude project as this. The reason Ambode had problems with the Lagos house and the Party as a whole was because most contracts of the state projects was awarded to companies that suit him and there was less power sharing in his government.

You right bro

You right bro

Exactly my point

Yup that's my major concern.

that's true

The maintenance is not the fault of the government. It's the citizens. The government create infrastructure, how are we handling it? The terminal is currently being maintained by the company that built it. So far the only damage to the structure are intentional damages by citizens.

akanbi oluwatobi true bro, I’ll also ask this question, where is the electricity needed to run this huge investment going to come from? There are so many things that can be done in Nigeria but cost of running them which is exponentially multiplied by power generation costs is a colossal issue. I applaud the the Lagos state government for doing this but there also much more difficult issues to tackle including maintenance culture like you rightly pointed out.

Tinubu has done that already by denying Ambode the second term.

Ben Makanjuola you wish... Continuity is the order of the day.

Point of correction.u should rather say that Lagos is becoming the world fastest growing infrastructural state and I will agree with u because the centre of excellency is really trying whereas other states governors are busy embezzling public funds.Thumbs up for Governor akinwumi ambode and the entire Lagos State governors

Not yet world class it has just taking a lip

@eddy you can take your hatred for Buhari out of this thread, unless you're an ignorant twerp, you should know by now that the contractors of this project; Planet Project Nigeria Ltd, is fully owned by a Nigerian by name, Abiodun Otunola and not a Chinese. I never said the Chinese are not doing most of the big projects in Nigeria, I pointed out that it is good to see a local construction firm, doing this great project...Buhari is not involved, he was only invited to commission the project, by virtue of his position as the current president of Nigeria...Take your hate to the proper place.

@@choupies9897 It may not be so in your eyes, but not everyone sees things the way you do...So hold on to your perception and you may refuse to use the facility, if you find yourself in Lagos....its your call.

U will say Yoruba engineer ok

@@mikegeo111 yeah, what's wrong with Yoruba engineers? As long as its Nigerian or even African, its better, if they can deliver and make it nice. The Oshodi bus terminal cost the Lagos state government about $61m dollars or N22bn and imagine if these kinds of projects are given to local engineers, whether Yoruba, Igbo or Hausa and not the Chinese or Europeans, who will charge far more and still not do as much.

Chinese money is involved.

Chinese investment is helping Africa most than the West bloc ever did and in fewer years.

Stop your nonsense, chinese money had been helping Africa in term of infrastructure while western debt helped corruot politicians and Swizerland banks. China is better than the west for Africa. Its not China whom have imported revolution, hunger and poverty to Africa so they can loot our resources.

Behind the scenes!!

@@TabsT-vy5jy you are the most dump person l hv ever seen on earth, to make a point must you insult 2million ppl you fool

laga ndum why are you singling out Lagos? All parts of Nigeria should “belong” to all Nigerians!

You're right. We are all Nigerians. Nigeria belongs to us.

No you aren't right Lagos belongs to the Yoruba people, London belongs to the English people,Edinburgh Scottish , or Cardiff Welsh, have their respective regions,please don't miss it together!!

​@@abiodunb2655 I do not support this claim. It's a Yoruba city but a Nigerian State. If you're calling it a Yoruba state then that means others will need visas to visit Lagos and Lagosians will need visas to go to other states. But since that's not the way things are, Lagos is a Nigerian State. There's no point claiming it for the Yoruba tribe because it's a successful State. There are successful states all over Nigeria and there are bigger States that are beautiful and clean. Lagos only stands out because it's popular and it played a good role in the African history (trans Atlantic slave trade) the Nigerian history (former capital) and the Yoruba history (Eko market where the people of Owu sold their slaves before they were wiped out). Lagos can't be recognized without being linked to a sovereign state because it's not a sovereign state.

You are right but I think Sanwoolu will continue from where he stopped and if not he will be toppled again after 4 yeard

Stop overplaying this 'maintenance' issue. There are a LOT of Nigerian projects that have been around for years and are being well-maintained. Abuja the capital city was purpose-built in the 1980s, and we heard all the concerns about its future 'maintenance'. But the city continues to grow in leaps and bounds, and is reasonably well-maintained till today.

ross meroe lies, U are even mentioning Abuja, I was born and brought up in Abuja Nigeria, and live in Maitama. go to gwagwalada, go to Zuba, go to Jabi, go to Bwari, go to Wusa, go to kwali, go to Abagi, etc, million dollar project been abandoned for ten years, bad roads, no highway cameras, the only place you can find a high way camera is airport road. Let’s talk about the Abuja airport. They were renovating Abuja airport before I left Nigeria in 2014, I studied and returned in 2018, it was still the same way it was. And now I left the country again the way it was. Say the truth and shame the devil.

This is Yoruba land not NIGERIA ok

Penalties in form of fines should come along

They already installed CCTV cameras.

To see Yoruba land this is Yoruba land ok

The reporter said that the President commissioned some project, she wasn't talking about this one.

Coz they know that the incoming government will stop and start his own project hahaha

@Tee X I don't see Chinese workers though

@Tee X Oshodi is in Nigeria and foreigners are doing the job...🤔

Exactly it has always been my point so that eastern people will keep saying they have access to Lagos

Limited IGR in those states is a factor. You can't compare what Lagos state generate to others. But mind you, those other states contribute to servicing Lagos economy indirectly as the state would have imposed its own excise on imported materials before they get distributed to other states. But by and large, Lagos has more firms that service her economy than those of other states.

...however, there's no reason no genuine reason not to make your city work
