I give the rail six months, it will start washing off. Nigerians lack mentainance, and the only way to have the rail function properly is to give adequate mentainance.

You have no sense at all. You will be alive more than six months to see the rail way shinning and looking new for live. This is not pdp government.

This is a credit and a plus to this administration, I hope more of good things like this would come before they pack up and leave the seat for another tenure.

Osinbajo clocks 60 in a unique style of inaugurating the Kano -Lagos rail project. Osinbajo is now our president and not buhari. Buhari is gone.

God punish you and your family. It is osinbajo that will die for baba buhari and not baba buhari for osinbajo. Don’t worry, baba buhari is coming home next week to shock you all and to stop this nonsense hailing of osinbajo.
