Eid-El-Kabir: Osun Government Announces Free Round-Trip Train Ride From Lagos by dammy13(m): 8:08am On Aug 28, 2017 |
Osun State Government has announced free train for Osun-bound travellers from Lagos, for the purpose of easing the mobility of those who wish to celebrate Eid-el-kabir in the state. The Commissioner for Commerce, Industries and Cooperatives, Hon. Ismail Adekunle Jayeoba-Alagbada, made the announcement on Sunday through a statement. He said the gesture was in furtherance of Governor Rauf Aregbesola administration’s commitment to the welfare of the ordinary people. “The free train is expected to move from Lagos twice to Osogbo and will operate only one trip for the post-sallah return journey. “The first train moves from Lagos on Wednesday August 30th, 2017 at exactly 10am from the Iddo Terminus, Lagos enroute Ikeja, through Ogun and Oyo State to end the journey in Osogbo. Another one leaves at the same time on Thursday August 31st, 2017”, the statement reads. Fabinfos.com recalls that the state government offered same gesture during the Eid-el-fitri celebration in June. http://fabinfos.com/eid-el-kabir-osun-govt-announces-free-round-trip-train-ride-lagos/ 1 Like

Akshow: And what's your fooking business if any yoruba man from any yoruba state decides to claim lagos another yoruba state? Y'all are still wondering how an indigene of Ondo ends up becoming commissioner in Osun and an indigene of Osun ends up becoming the chief of staff to the governor of Ogun state. Or why Ogun state doesn't sack workers of Oyo state origin from its civil service... All these nonsense are applicable in your Godforsaken states... . We don't do that shiit here We are all Yorubas and lagos is our collective patrimony. You can hit your head on a wall if you ain't happy about that 45 Likes 3 Shares |

Is it the job of The Commissioner for Commerce, Industries and Cooperatives, Hon. Ismail Adekunle Jayeoba-Alagbada, to announce free trains rides? Or is it his job to announce a joint venture with a Japanese company to design and build trains in Osun State and create revenue and employment? Nigerian states are like a lot of Nigerian girls: poor, broke, unviable and without ambition. |

Government at whatever level should not get involved with politics. By the way I thought Osun State is financially bankrupt... |

icedfire: Its safe but you have to strugle for a sit. have it in mind that the population is much thereby causing body odour. You have to be at Ido bh 8AM OR LESS otherwise you might not have a vacant sit. If u enjoy discussing with new ppl j will surely have a good time inside aregbesola free ride train. i experienced it during 2015. |

Saintsquare:I detest tribal bigotry but sometimes we all have to concur that common sense is not common.. Not leaving the fact of high rate of transport fair to the East during Christmas (I doubt you have ever traveled out of your state) the mortality rate of your kinsmen on Benin-ore road will have been extremely low only if your governors where not thinking like you... |
