President Muhammadu Buhari has named the railway complex in
Agbor, Delta state, after former President Goodluck Jonathan.
According to Tolu Ogunlesi, a presidential aide, Rotimi
Amaechi, minister of transportation, announced this on Saturday.
“BREAKING | President @MBuhari has approved the naming of
the Railway Complex in Agbor – the operational hub of #ItakpeWarriRail Line –
after former President @GEJonathan. It will be known as the Goodluck Jonathan
Railway Station & Complex — Minister of Transport, @ChibuikeAmaechi,”
Ogunlesi tweeted on Saturday.

The railway complex in Agbor is the centre of operation
which connects the Itakpe-Warri rail line. It is joined by Benin to Onitsha
rail, among other segments of the country.
The rail line is part
of the Lagos-Calabar coastal railway project, which cuts across most states in
the south-east and south-south.
The project implemented by the China Civil Engineering
Construction Company (CCECC) was initiated during Jonathan’s administration.
But in 2016, Amaechi signed a fresh mandate to commence
construction of the project.
Buhari defeated Jonathan during the 2015 presidential election,
setting a new record as the first candidate to defeat a sitting president in
Nigeria.
well done Bubu
