If you want success you must build a road to it...first. No nation develops without investing in infrastructure.
That is exactly what Nigeria is trying to with infrastructure. Nigeria' rail infrastructure is gradually bringing convenience to many. Heck there are people in Abeaukuta who now ditch their cars when coming to Lagos.
When it comes to Lagos traffic Nigerians have escaped a nightmare. Going on roads for hours can be stressful.
Lagos-Ibadan train has the capacity to travel at 150 km per hour. Its air conditioned coaches are outfitted with overhead TV screens. The toilets are clean. The window seats have charging ports.
Already having the longest "light rail" network in Africa. Nigeria plans to tripple the size of its light rail networks. The majority of this expansion will be done in the east.
Light trains in Nigeria are world class. Comparable to what you find in developed nations. The importance of infrastructure to a nations development cannot be over emphasized. Besides,.. investments in infrastructure work as a force multiplier wherein the monies
invested in building train networks, and ports and airports not only creates the "hardware" for a nation’s development but also results in more growth because the huge amounts of money are spent on construction materials, wages, and production of other raw materials which help
those industries to grow faster. Therefore, it is indeed the case that massive investments in infrastructure is the key to Nigeria's development.
