All Progressives Congress has described President Goodluck Jonathan as being hypocritical when he listed the revival of the railway as part of his administration’s so-called achievements during the kick-off of his electioneering campaign in Lagos.
According to a statement by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Alhaji Lai Mohammed in Lagos, APC said ‘’President Jonathan is simply being hypocritical when he listed the revival of the railway as part of his administration’s so-called achievements, during the kick-off of his electioneering campaign in Lagos, and during which he also tried to project himself and his party as friends of the South-west in general and Lagos in particular. His words and actions since assuming office six years ago do not support that
‘’He claims to have revived the railway but did not tell Lagosians how he has stopped, in its tracks, the LAMATA Red Line Light Rail Project that would have alleviated the suffering of Lagosians as they commute daily across the densely-populated city, not to talk of the loss of over 30,000 jobs that would have been created by the project.”
The party also added that the President will grant the approval immediately if not for the fact that he holds the South west in general and Lagos in particular in contempt.
