Lagos/Calabar railway project is Buhari’s priority – APC chairman says
The chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), John Odigie-Oyegun has announced that construction of railway lines which will link various states of the federation, is at the top of President Buhari’s list.
Odigie-Oyegun also asked Nigerians to be patient with the present administration.
He said “As of today, the economy is in the process of being reflated. This means that money is being put into the system. Contractors are being mobilised to go back to work. New contracts will be awarded.
“The railway will be one of the very first priorities. We will, for the first time, go from Kano to Lagos through Benin City all the way to Calabar by rail.”
The APC chairman also said “The result at the end of the day is going to be a more vibrant nation which every Nigerian will be proud of.”
Odigie-Oyegun recently spearheaded the reconciliatory meeting between the Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, and his predecessor, Rabiu Kwankwaso.
