All Set For Commissioning Of Itakpe-Warri-Ajaokuta Standard Gauge Rail Line by Rossikki: 8:33pm On Aug 03, 2018
The Federal Republic of Nigeria continues to make great strides in infrastructural transformation

''All is now set for the official take-off of the Itakpe-Warri-Ajaokuta Standard Gauge Rail, the first standard gauge rail in Nigeria. According to reports, the rail was abandoned since 1987 but it is now completed and being test run. The rail is very critical to the Ajaokuta Steel Complex for movement of raw materials and finished products.''

The minister of transportation, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi met with the contractors and some members of his cabinet where they tested the rail from Warri to Kogi (Ajaokuta).

It is being said that when the Itakpe-Warri Rail is completed, commuters will be able to travel from Kogi State to Delta State by Rail, passing through Ajaokuta, Uromi, Agbor, and Abraka. In the next phase, the line will extend from Itakpe to Abuja.

The rail line links north central to south south. Here are the stations:

KOGI: -Itakpe -Adogo -Ajaokuta
EDO: -Itogbo -Agenegbode -Uromi -Ekekhen -Igbanke
DELTA: -Agbor -Abraka -Okpara -Ujewu

There's always something good happening in Nigeria. You just have to look for it, because everyone, including the media, focuses on the bad.

This is the kind of development Nigeria need, the the cosmetics of PDP.
Buhari must win the next election if Nigeria must progress.
