SOUTH EAST AND SOUTH SOUTH MUST REJECT NARROW GAUGE RAILROAD.

THE GOVERNORS OF SOUTH EAST AND SOUTH SOUTH SHOULD REJECT THE NARROW GAUGE RAILROAD APPROVED FOR THE EASTERN CORRIDOR BY FG WHEN THE WESTERN TO KANO AXIS IS STANDARD GAUGE. IT'S DISHEARTENING THAT IT WAS ROTIMI AMAECHI THAT STARTED THIS NONSENSE AS MINISTER OF TRANSPORTATION.

ARE WE PROGRESSING OR RETROGRESSING IN THE 21st CENTURY WHEN EVEN SOME 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES ARE GOING FOR MULTIPLE LANE ELECTRIC TRAINS. THE PORT HARCOURT - ABA - ENUGU - MAIDUGURI EASTERN CORRIDOR DOES NOT NEED THE OBSOLETE NARROW GAUGE.

IF FG IS NOT WILLING TO CONSTRUCT A STANDARD GAUGE FOR THE EASTERN CORRIDOR AS IT WAS DONE FOR THE WESTERN TO KANO AXIS, THEY SHOULD FORGET FOR A FRIENDLY GOVERNMENT TO DO IT IN THE NEAREST FUTURE.

NARROW GAUGE RAILROAD IS AN INSULT TO THE OIL PRODUCING REGIONS OF SOUTH EAST AND SOUTH SOUTH. OUR FEEBLE GOVERNORS SHOULD FOR GOD'S SAKE PROTECT THE OVERALL INTEREST OF THE SOUTH EAST AND SOUTH SOUTH.
I COME IN PEACE.

SEN. OSITA IZUNASO VISITS UNITED ISU PROGRESSIVE UNION.

As campaigns intensify nationwide for the 2023 General Elections, Politicians are criss-crossing the nooks and crannies of the Nation in search of votes and acquaintances.
Sen. Osita Izunaso, the APC Senatorial Candidate for Imo West (Orlu Zone) paid a scheduled visit to United Isu Progressive Union at the ultra-modern Country Club in the land of Isu na Eliligborogu for an interactive session.

Note that Isu Clan is the largest Political Block in Orlu Zone, and U.I.P.U has, over the years, championed the clamour for equity in the social, economic and political development of the Zone.
The U.I.P.U Country Club has become a sort of Mecca for Politicians across party lines who troupe there to scurry Political favour and cultivate acquaintances. This election year, several Politicians across party lines have also came calling.

Sen. Izunaso and his campaign team were received by a large crowd at the Country Club and they, as Politicians would say, had fruitful deliberations necessitating demands and promises.
