Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Ademola Adeleke administration in Osun State has stated that it is ready to fully support the South West Rail Project.<\/p>\n

The project is reportedly being championed by the Development Agenda of Western Nigeria (DAWN Commission).<\/p>\n

This was made known by the Osun State Commissioner for Transportation, Sesan Oyedele at a South West transport stakeholders\u2019 meeting in Ibadan.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the meeting hosted by the DAWN Commission, the Commissioner said, \u201cOsun State is prepared to work with other South-West States to put together a step by step road map that will improve rail transportation in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n

Oyedele stressed on the need to increasingly cater for the increasing population of the region in terms of meeting the transport needs of the people.<\/p>\n

\u201cNigeria\u2019s railway system over the years has played a significant role in the country\u2019s transport sector and economic development spanning across different regions of the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to sustain this by fast tracking development of the transport sector; the population of the country is growing rapidly, Nigeria is going to have close to an extra 100m people in about 10 years time.<\/p>\n

\u201cRealising this vision needs a collective approach and a methodological planning, we need to get our acts together and put together a railway development plan that will cater for the needs of our people in future,\u201d the Commissioner stated.<\/p>\n
