In building the infrastructure for the Lagos Rail Mass Transit Red Line project, we acquired the NRC's staff quarters at Ikeja where the Ikeja train station is currently being built.

We made a commitment to rebuild the acquired staff quarters at another location.

I am happy to say we have fulfilled that promise and the new staff quarters is ready for use by the NRC.

There is a lot that can be achieved where there is intergovernmental synergy. We will continue to strengthen cooperation with the FG for the benefit of our people

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.
