Minister of Transportation, Mr Rotimi Amaechi embarked on routine tour/inspection of the Lagos-Ibadan rail project yesterday 20/1/2020. Amaechi was accompanied on the inspection by the Oyo State Governor, Mr Seyi Makinde. The minister noted that a large chunk of the rail line was in Oyo State.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), reports that the inspection kicked off from the Railway Mega Station in Ebute-Metta to Apapa, Lagos and moved all the way to Ibadan, Oyo state. The Lagos-Ibadan rail project was expected to be completed in February 2020, but was recently extended to April due to some unforeseen circumstances. However, the seven smaller stations on the Lagos-Ibadan Standard Rail Gauge corridor are yet to be completed, an issue the minister tackled during his last routine tour of the project.
