Nigeria is set to revolutionize its transportation sector with the introduction of a Lagos-Abuja bullet train, expected to significantly cut travel time to just three hours. The high-speed rail project, which aims to enhance connectivity, boost economic growth, and ease road congestion, is a major step towards modernizing the country’s rail infrastructure.
According to officials, the train will provide a faster, safer, and more efficient alternative to road and air travel between Nigeria’s commercial and political capitals.

The development aligns with the government’s vision to improve intercity transportation, attract investments, and drive industrialization.
The Lagos-Abuja high-speed rail is expected to enhance business operations, ease passenger movement, and further integrate Nigeria’s economy. Experts believe the project could position the country as a leader in railway innovation within Africa.
