The Minister of Transportation,
Rotimi Amaechi has told Nigerians that it would be disasterous if the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, returns to power in 2029.
Amaechi said the party was
“desperate and hungry for power.’’
He spoke at a Special Town Hall
Meeting on Infrastructure organised by the Ministry of Information and Culture
in Ibadan.
The Minister said the PDP, while
in power, turned the nation to a “feeding bottle” by abandoning critical
infrastructure and “ sucking” the economy for personal gains.
The minister urged Nigerians to
resist the PDP by voting for Buhari and ensuring that they guarded their votes
during the 2019 general elections.
Amaechi also said that the ruling
party was prepared for an open debate with the PDP on the successes recorded,
especially on infrastructure development.
“We are ready for the PDP candidate
to confront us with what they achieved in 16 years and compare them to what we
have done in just three and half years.
“We are open for the debate, our
achievements on infrastructure are there to showcase,” he said.
The minister disclosed that the
government was working hard to ensure the completion of Lagos-Ibadan standard
gauge rail project by February 2019.
“We are working day and night on
this project and we have started laying the tracks from Papalanto.
“I want to thank the people and
the communities along the rail tracks for their cooperation because they have
never given us trouble,” he said.
The minister also said that after
completing the Lagos-Ibadan section of the project, the focus would turn to the
Lagos-Kano standard gauge.
