How to get to the East of Nigeria from Lagos.

1. Use the new Coastal Railway from Ikeja Station to TransAmadi Station transfer at Trans Amadi Station to Aba, Nnewi or Enugu Stations cost N500
2. Fly Air Nigeria from Lagos to brand new airports in Aba, Abakaliki and Onitsha....Cost? N7000...discount if frequent flyer.

3 Drive on new 10 lane expressway from Lagos to Abakaliki.. please observe speed limits....cost? with fuel at new price of N35 a full tank is N2000
From Abuja to the East?

4. By Rail

Use new Abuja to Aba Express Rail....its a really fast bullet train. ....I used the Sleeper Service, Lunch in Abuja, Dinner in Aba...Cost N500
5. By Air?

Abuja is Air Nigeria's hub, so hourly flights from Abuja to All airports in all 5 States in South East ..please note Owerri International Airport has a charge on parking if flying international. cost of Air ticket N5000
6. By Inland Water Ferry to the East?

Drive your car to the ferry service in Lokoja, float down the dredged River Niger, experience pampered care.

Cost N1,000

What about you? what's your favorite way to travel "East"?
Everything I have listed here can be accomplished with $15b.

$11b Coastal railway
$1b River Niger Dredging
$500m Regional Airports
$1b Lokoja Inland Port
$2b Abuja to Aba rail

The revenue and productivity gains will be triple the cost.

May implementation follow vision
