I extend my appreciation to His Excellency President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, for the recent approval of $3 billion allocation for the completion of the Eastern Rail Line. This project is a game-changer for the South East connecting Aba and Onitsha to key markets in the Northern region that will boost our economy by linking major trade hubs and unlock over ₦50 billion in annual trade. This bold step is a clear demonstration that the Renewed Hope Agenda is not just mere rhetorics but tangible actions. By prioritizing the Eastern corridor, Mr. President has once again shown his love for Ndi Igbo, commitment to inclusive national development and regional connectivity. At the appropriate time, this gesture will be reciprocated. For now, we express our profound gratitude: thank you, Mr. President.
