Former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman, Alhaji Bamanga Tukur, yesterday resumed at the Nigeria Railway Corporation (NRC).
He described President Goodluck Jonathan’s transformation agenda as one which had awakened the sleeping giant that was the Railway.
Tukur, who praised the level of funding for the corporation, assured that there would be adequate funding to ensure the success of the corporation.
He said he was bringing to the saddle a wealth of experience, which saw him leave a legacy at the Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA), where he built 18 ports across the country within five years.
“There is the will, the wish and the available capacity to bring about the kind of capacity we deserve as Nigerians and this is what we are bringing to this job,” Tukur said.
He pledged to heal the Railways and leave a legacy of transformation that would surpass his achievements at the NPA.
Said Tukur: “I have come to see for myself what is on ground. My appointment is to find a healing for the age-old institution and with the support of other members of the board of directors and management of this corporation, we will achieve success.”
