In the area of transportation vis-à-vis the railway system, I salute All Progressives led government for this effort. It is strategic to national development, especially in the area of economy.
“I wish to also join my faith with those who believe in the unity of Nigeria, believing that it will achieve its full potential as a great nation.
Happy 60th Independence Anniversary,” he stated.
