Rotimi Amaechi, Minister of Transportation has apologized to Nigerians over the unprecedented mishap with the recently purchased trains between November 18-20.
Minister Amaechi tendered the apology at Moniyabrail station where he was conducting a routine inspection of an ongoing rail project in Ibadan.
He said;
“I want to apologise to Nigerians for what happened at the Abuja-Kaduna rail station.
“We now have new locomotives and we have called the Chinese because we never expected the mechanical fault at this early stage.
“On behalf of the Federal Government, the ministry, and the Nigerian Railway Corporation, we apologise to Nigerians and I have instructed the NRC to fix it or invite the Chinese.
“If this is happening now, then they should bring back our old locomotives, it will just affect turnaround times because we get the new locomotive to increase the turnaround time.”
