NIGERIA TO CONCESSION NARROW GAUGE LINES TO GENERAL ELECTRIC.
The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, said on Tuesday that negotiations were ongoing for the concession of narrow gauge lines across the country to General Electric (GE).
Mr. Amaechi, who made this known in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja, said the agreement would be signed before January 2017.
“We are negotiating to concession the old narrow gauge lines from Lagos, Kano, Funtua, Kaduna, Port Harcourt, Aba, Umuahia, Enugu, Makurdi, Jos, Bauchi, Gombe to Borno,” Mr. Amaechi said.

The minister said the concession would…

African Human Recycling
In the average African home, Nigerian homes to be precise, things are never thrown away after use (unless it’s
tissue paper).
That small Blue Band or cooking fat container will be used to keep steel wire at
the sink. Or coins. The large cooking fat containers will be used as flower pots.
And the Sunlight or Toss detergent containers for pegs. While those ice cream
containers will be used to store food, or they will be used as lunchboxes for the
children. The empty jerrican of cooking oil will be used for storing water or for
fermenting porridge. Or for buying paraffin oil.
The empty bottles of soda that are gathering dust and spiders under the sink or in
a dark corner of a cupboard will be used as mosquito coil stands. That old t-shirt
or towel will be used as a duster/mop or a bathroom doormat. The old hand…
