Na wa for ACN propagand. They have turned GEJ transformation in the rail sector to "omoluabi train". Anyway, provided they always give credit to whom it is due. To GEJ for restoring rail transport and to the governor for paying the train transport fare for his people on those particular days. 1 Like |

abrat: KUDOS to GEJ for restoring rail transport and Nice1 from Aregbe for making it free this festive period. I don't know why you're giving kudos to GEJ for "restoring rail transport". GEJ restored nothing. This project was awarded by OBJ and then canceled and reawarded by Yar'Adua. 6 Likes |

Wonderful, this is one good way to know a clueless governor. One governor i know in the southeast does thesame and he went far to the extent of deploying graders to grade dusty roads to give an impression that construction work is on a high note in the state. |

Why would anyone be thankful to a government when they do their job ? It is the responsibility of a government to provide basic infrastructures to the governed. The Federal Government and Osun State Government can get no thank you from me for doing their job. 6 Likes |

The Federal Government and Osun State Government can get no thank you from me for doing their job. You mean it is the job of Osun state Government to pay for commuters transport fare ? Far from it, i think the state govt. has gone beyond the call of duty. Even you yourself know it. the state govt should be applauded 3 Likes |

emiye:You choose to, and I choose not to. Logically, if the respective State Governments did their jobs, millions of people in train loads from each State wont migrate to Lagos including me. People need to start demanding their rights from their State Governments cos every State receives allocation from Abuja every 4/5 weeks. What are they doing with the phucking billions they receive every 4 weeks ? And you applaud them for paying train which cost nothing ? Think Emiye, Think!!! 5 Likes |

The hired buses will still encounter the ghastly roads won't they? In my view that money would have been used to patch up roads so people can travel safely for the holidays. I think they'll be more gratefull than pulling each others hairs and cloths dragging to enter your free buses. 1 Like |

emiye:Many people on this forum will disagree with you, I am sure of that. It is not magnanimity when a Government does her job. In better climes there are food stamps for those who cant afford meals and there are free medicare and social security and even refunds. It is a norm. And you dont have to be well traveled to know that the governor is your servant and is supposed to meet your basic needs. 4 Likes |
