Lady rode Blue Line train
Meanwhile, Fox Nigeria earlier reported that a Nigerian lady shared her experience of taking the Lagos Blue Line Rail for the first time.
According to her (@Soph30Chic), she boarded the train at the theatre station and was surprised to arrive at her destination in 10 minutes. The lady said she stood throughout the trip because the train was full. That shows the popularity of the transport among Lagosians.
