President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday commissioned 10 additional coaches and two locomotives to the standard gauge railway in Kaduna. He had earlier commissioned the Inland Dry Port in Kakuri area of the city.

The President said his administration would link all Nigerian commercial and state capitals to the railway system to improve the nation’s socio-economic development. He also warned Customs and Port officials from frustrating business activities at the Inland dry ports in major parts of the country.

Commissioning the additional locomotives and coaches at the Rigasa Railway Station, Kaduna, President Buhari said his government’s promise to connect all major Nigerian cities to railway was not statements of intentions, but a benchmark to measure the performance of the administration.
