How My Lagos Blue Line Experience Left Me Speechless!

  • In this video, I've shared my story about my experience using the Lagos Rail Mass Transit system. I took a trip to Marina, Lagos to check out the Lagos Blue RailTransit system and I couldn't believe how amazing it was! The system is very efficient and easy to use, and it made my trip to Lagos a lot more enjoyable. If you're ever in the area and want to experience some of the best public transportation in Africa, then I highly recommend using the Rail Mass Transit system and enjoying the Blue experience. Commuters from Mile 2 get to enjoy a less than 20 minutes trip on rail compared to the 1 hour plus movement! This initiative is part of the means to decongest traffic in Lagos state. The government has completed a 13-kilometer stretch of monorail public transport construction which started in 2010, it has experienced so many delays in various administrations. Watch Out for Red Line.

Nigeria with all her resources and wealth, if the money 💰 is used appropriately rather than being dropped into some lunatic criminal politicians bank accounts home or abroad, surely Nigeria would have being the Dubai of Africa if not for West Africa. Those corrupt politicians with millions of dollars 💸 in their accounts have sabotaged Nigeria progress, to the extent of not having regular electricity and water. And roads which are not fixed causing serious fatalities across the country. Too sad to see Nigerians on the streets of various towns, being subjected to extreme levels of poverty, while most have considered begging a way of living. Those minority millionaires with more than enough should consider helping the under privileged.

    I wish The Blue Line well in Lagos . My only worry is that, Nigerians lack a "culture of maintenance" .We use to have a "culture of maintenance" before the 1970s ,but that disappeared when the evil culture of Oil Boom started in Nigeria. The notion then and what it is now, is to say "we go buy another one!, but we have Oil money to afford it!" If they could strictly adhere to maintaining the Line ,Power Source,Trains,Tracks and Staff Training, then The Blue Line will be a major success!

This is what China itself instituted back in the day, with Western companies who wanted to do business with China.
