Jonathan Commends Buhari For Naming Railway Station After Him

Former Nigeria President, Goodluck Jonathan, on Tuesday, appreciated President Muhammadu Buhari for naming a railway station in Agbor, Delta State, after him.

President Buhari had on Saturday approved that the name of the railway station will be called the Goodluck Jonathan Railway Station and Complex.

The former President in an interview with the state house correspondents on Tuesday, after his meeting with the President, described the naming of Warri-Itakpe rail station after him as a good gesture by the President.

Jonathan had met with the president to discuss the crisis in Male and efforts to restore peace in the country.

But when asked to speak on his relationship with the President, Jonathan said, “You have been seeing me coming to see the President and you have been seeing us having a friendly conversation. So, our relationship is okay.”

“Let me use this opportunity to commend Mr President publicly. I have already sent a letter to him appreciating the good gesture.”

“Completing the railway programme is good. It shows that the President is going on with the legacy projects of previous administrations, and that is the way to go.”

“So, I sent a letter to him. I have commended him verbally too. I appreciate it, I thank Mr President, the Minister of Transportation and others that made it possible.”
