In a move expected to transform Nigeria’s railway system, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has appointed Dr. Kayode Opeifa as the new Managing Director of the Nigeria Railway Corporation. Dr. Opeifa, a renowned transportation expert and former Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, brings a wealth of experience to his new role. During his tenure as Commissioner, Dr. Opeifa introduced innovative policies that revolutionized public transportation and traffic management in Lagos, setting a benchmark for other cities to follow. His success in Lagos led to his appointment as Transport Secretary for the Federal Capital Territory by former President Muhammadu Buhari, where he continued to demonstrate his expertise in ensuring a smooth and efficient transportation system. Dr. Opeifa’s deep understanding of transportation systems, particularly railways, is unmatched. His appointment promises a brighter future for Nigeria’s railway system, with more efficient services connecting cities, boosting economic development, and improving the lives of ordinary Nigerians. Comrade Ayodeji Rilwan Tinubu has also applauded Dr. Opeifa’s appointment, stating that it marks a new chapter in Nigeria’s railway development. “I have every confidence that the nation’s rail infrastructure will see significant improvements under his leadership,” he said. With Dr. Opeifa at the helm, Nigeria Railway Corporation is poised for transformation, and Nigerians can expect more efficient railway services that will drive economic growth and improve their quality of life.
