Azuka Okwuosa: Connecting Anambra to National Rail Network for a Better Future

*STRATEGIC BILL CONNECTING ANAMBRA TO THE NIGERIAN RAIL NETWORK: A SURE POINTER OF SIR AZUKA OKWUOSA BEING THE BEST BET FOR ANAMBRA SOUTH SENATORIAL SEAT*

Rail transportation in Nigeria remains about the cheapest – Standard class: N3,000.00 (for children) and N3,600.00 (for adults) Business class: N6,500.00 (for both children and adults) First-class: N9,000.00 (for both children and adults)- when compared with road and air transportations.
In spite of the cheapness, train services in the south east at the moment are mostly limited to Port Harcourt in Rivers State and Aba in Abia State while Enugu which is the administrative headquarters only coordinates operations without enjoying the actual rail services and Anambra is cut off entirely.

The Nigerian rail network, including the Eastern railway corridor, runs diagonally from Lagos to Maiduguri, passing through the South-East (Port Harcourt) and connecting to Kafanchan before heading to the North-East. It’s glaring that the present rail transport operations in the south east cutting off Anambra have negative effect on economic security, as there is a threat to economic opportunities resulting from loss of both direct and indirect jobs that a well-functioning rail transport system provides.

Being a master strategist, Chinyelugo whose concern always is on how to better the lots of his people especially in this excruciating hard times, came up with a bill which will connect Ndị Anambra to the Nigerian Rail Network thereby reducing cost of transportation(making our people come home enmasse during festivities) and channelling the excesses to other pressing needs; create job opportunities and increase business profits maximally…

Chinyelugo is the only one amongst the Contenders that can make this happen with his high profile connections in the corridors of power and his unifying expertise!

Support Sir Azuka Okwuosa for quality Representation in the Red Chambers of the National Assembly.
