What was the first Light Rail Mass Network In West Africa? 

The correct answer is Abuja Rail Mass Transit.

The Abuja Rail Mass Transit, commonly known as Abuja light rail. It is the first Transit System in Nigeria and in West Africa.

The rail connects the Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport with Kubwa, the northwest satellite town, and downtown Abuja. After the opening of the light rail, the commuting time from Kubwa to downtown Abuja was reduced by about 50 minutes, and the time to the airport was reduced by about 30 minutes.

By seamlessly linking the Abuja-Kaduna railway and the Abuja airport terminal, it has contributed to the multi-dimensional traffic system in Abuja.
