As an urban & regional development planner, I feel two sad mistakes were made building this metroline system, based on the route approved for this project. One is, why is CMS central business district the final destination on the island and not Leventis CBD? The beautiful water front landscape of CMS at the marina was sadly, deliberately destroyed to make way for this project which then makes me wonder what highly trained, experienced engineer will design and build the high concrete structures which elevates the heavy metroline train, side by side bridges carrying vehicles with very little space separating the two? Is he not aware of the vibrational laws of motion in physics as it relates to the pull between two objects that are close to each other?
The second is, why the 3rd mainland bridge water front route from the Osborne foreshore area, was not considered as an alternative ideal route for island-mainland to ease the heavy passenger traffic in Lagos?
From here, one can extend it further towards Anthony central business district on the mainland which links major areas like Ikeja, kosofe, surulere etc. This two routes, would have solved most of the heavy passenger and vehicle traffic problems Lagos is known for and still retain her beautiful city landscape. I may be wrong, no one is perfect but these are my thoughts. 🤔🙄

Nigeria will never make progress economically and politically as long as northerners hold political offices in Nigeria. The level of mediocrity among them is alarming, all due to their very poor level of education. Everything they touch, they destroy. They are a curse to this great country either as civilian head of states, or even during the well known military era. We all know this as a fact.
How this northern born minister of avaition, can call 5% ownership of an airline as a "national airline" is so shameful and disgraceful. Is he not aware that 5% is practically nothing? That percentage (5%), can easily be diluted within months, or a year after the airline starts operating. What happens then? Besides how difficult can it be to start an airline when a private nigerian airline, Peace airlines has been operating for over 5 yrs now. Why can't the govt take up 30%, 40%, or even 45% equity in her? That still leaves the majority % equity with the private owners and will certainly, help the airline grow even faster, because it gives her leverage flying into foreign airports more easily as an airline with state equity in tow.
Another alternative, is to have federal and states with airports, have combined equity of 35% - 45%. This is to ensure more flights to their airports, which is experiencing poor traffic/patronage for a very long time now, as a condition of being part owners of the airline. The rest of the shares/equity can be owned by private investors both Nigerians and foreigners. These two sensible options is what can be called a truely national airline, not the one formulated by the avaition minister...
