We have fulfilled our 2011 campaign promises –Namadi Sambo

V.P of Nigeria, Namadi Sambo

President Goodluck Jonathan Friday said he had fulfilled the promises he made to Nigerians during his 2011 campaign.

He said this while inaugurating a five-seater air-conditioned passenger inter-city rail transport system that will link Makurdi, Benue State with Port-Harcourt, Rivers State.

Jonathan, who was represented by Vice-President Namadi Sambo, said the country had witnessed transformation, especially in the transport sector during his administration.

He said, “President Jonathan has ensured the fulfilment of the promises he made to Nigerians by transforming the country, especially the transport sector as a critical infrastructure."

Governor Gabriel Suswam of Benue State applauded the President for reviving the “moribund” railway system which he said had been abandoned for the past thirty years. ...Punch
