With only seven days in office, Kogi State Governor, Captain Idris Wada yesterday commissioned an ultra modern motor park with a space capacity for 10,000 passengers. He, arguably, described it as the largest park in West Africa.
The visiting Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors’ Forum and Ondo State Governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, commissioned the motor park. Wada said the park was built with N1.6 billion.
Commissioning the ultra modern motor park, Mimiko decried the level of accidents in the country and stated that the physiological appearance of some of the motor parks in the country were largely responsible for some of road crashes but noted that the Lokoja mega motor park was one built to save lives.
The Ondo State governor pointed out that between 2012 and 2014, Nigeria witnessed 30,532, which involved 132,794 passengers while 16,703 persons died.
He commended the Kogi State Government for keying into the model concept, saying the mega terminal was a masterpiece that will touch the lives of people of Kogi State.
In his address, Wada explained that the concept behind the ultra modern mega terminal was aimed at generating revenue for the state, as well for the security of lives and property of passengers as well as create employment opportunities for the people of the state.
He disclosed that the state government has handed over the management of the facility of the park to a private company known as AIL, and urged them to handle it properly
Wada assured there would be adequate security around the terminal.

This man is definitely going to Jail.

N1.6 billion for a Park? a Park for 10,000 people? how many people even resides in Kogi State that you built a park for 10,000 people? i am fairly certain the entire Kogi State Population, will not be as much as the numbers of people living in Ikeja Local Government area alone in Lagos, and yet you spent a BILLION Plus?

What is it with PDP, and their love to steal anything that starts with B? B is for Billions. This Idris Wada, should be ready with his sleeping mat, and bed bugs repellant, as he will soon be joining Kanu,Dasuki and Atutupoyoyo in Jail very soon.

EFCC please put an eye on this one, make sure you have your eyes on all the departure points of this Country, so he does not pull a Madueke on us with London on his mind.

Good development.

Motor park or bus terminal?

But where is lalasticlala sef? Day don break for Aso Rock

I hope this man has not suffered a mental breakdown as result of the electoral defeat suffered. How else can you explain why the same individual who has failed to pay salaries of 3 months would be starting projects that are not only wasteful but needless? This is madness and the governor is acting mad. Motor park N1.6 Billion, this abeg EFCC should arrest him 1 day to handover

I wonder how much this so called Mega motor park want to generate for the state per month.

Madness
