Goodluck Jonathan Government Test-run Itakpe-warri Rail-line (2014 VIDEO) by Esejojo(op): 11:27pm On Aug 17, 2020
The video below is a 2014 video showing Labaran Makun ,the minister of information during the Goodluck Jonathan administration, supervising a media tour/test-run of the Ajaokuta-Itakpe-Warri standard gauge railway line.

The railway line connects Ajaokuta in Kogi State to Warri in Delta State.

In the video, the minister can be heard explaining the plan of the Goodluck Jonathan administration on a national railway line project.

Afterwards, there was a ride in a coach on the constructed Ajaokuta-Itakpe-Warri railway line.

For those who may not be able to watch the video, here are what was said in the video:

1. At the time of test running this Itakpe-Warri railway line, the Abuja-Kaduna railway line was being constructed and almost completed.

2. The railway track was already laid (completed) from Ajaokuta to Itakpe to Warri as at 2014.

3. The entire project was 72% completed.

4. The only thing left for completion was road crossings (ramps and over-bridge).

5. According to the Minister, the Itakpe-Ajaokuta railway line was originally designed for the steel industry, but it has been integrated into the National Integrated Railway plan.

6. The GEJ administration had already awarded contract for another standard guage rail between Lagos and Ibadan. It was awarded to a Chinese firm (I’m guessing its CCECC).


7. What GEJ administration was planning to do was to interlink the Itakpe-Warri railway line to a standard gauge line between Lagos-Ibadan-Oshogbo-Abuja-Kaduna-Kano

8. Another standard gauge line is the one that will branch off from Lagos to Benin and then to the South East and terminating in Calabar.

Keep believing your own lies. If you had bothered to watch the video, you would have seen most of the projects being celebrated by the current administration was started and almost completed by the GEJ administration.

And the railway line in question (Itakpe-Warri) does not connect to his region? You guys need to get over your hatred for the man as it is apparent that it is consuming you even years after he exited power.

If the previous administration had earlier completed this standard gauge railway line; what exactly or modifications have the current administration of PMB do; claiming to have recompleted again to the extent of rhetorically heralding such as part of their achievement
