The Lagos State Commissioner for Waterfront Infrastructure Development, Ahmed Kabiru Abdullahi, has also come out to oppose President Muhammadu Buhari, on his approval of $1.9 billion for the construction of Kano-Niger Republic rail network.<\/p>\n

Abdullahi, making his stand know on Saturday, via a post on his Facebook page, directly addressed to President Buhari, said there was no need for such a project.<\/p>\n

According to him, “What we need now is to link the Abuja-Kaduna rail to Kano, Daura and Katsina, while he also proposed other internal projects to be put into consideration by President Buhari.<\/p>\n

Such other rail projects he listed include, “Abuja-Ibadan-Lagos; Lokoja-Enugu-Port Harcourt; Lagos- Port Harcourt and Abuja-Minna-Sokoto.<\/p>\n

With these, if embarked upon, addressing President Buhari, he said: “This will make you the fatter of Nigeria’s Infrastructure development.”<\/p>\n

Below is Abdullahi’s address to President Buhari on his Facebook page.<\/p>\n

Dear Mr. President,
\nWe don’t need a train to Niger Republic! What we need now is to link the Abuja-Kaduna rail to Kano, Daura and Katsina, instead!
\nSubsequently,
\n1.Abuja-Ibadan(Lagos),
\n2.Lokoja-Enugu-Port Harcourt.
\n3.Lagos- Port Harcourt.
\n4.Abuja-Minna-Sokoto.
\nThis will make you the FATHER of Nigeria’s Infrastructure development!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
