OJUKWU TRANSPORT COMPANY REJECTS BIANCA AS DIRECTOR


The war is not yet over with the family of the late Biafran warlord Ikemba Odumaegwu Ojukwu as one of the directors of the company , Ifeukwu Ojukwu  has rejected the idea of Bianca as one of the directors of the company. The late warlord has directed in his will that he be replaced by his widow as a director in the Ojukwu Transport Ltd, a company formed by his father, Sir Louis Philip Odumegwu Ojukwu. However, Ifeukwu has maintained that the property is different from what Ikemba owed and transfer of directorship is not possible.
Already, Emeka Ojukwu Jnr has claimed that the will was tampered with.

NIGERIA TRAIN SYSTEM

This is what Lagosians are greeted with day-in day- out. The sights are usually scary and one can only imagine the number of accidents per week from this appalling condition.
The train connects Lagos to Ota and other parts of the South West. It operates on one track, which means there will not be other train on the track once one is rolling. It is old, dilapidated, uncomfortable and can only be likened to the famous MOLUE of the old. Those standing and sitting on the roof greatly surpass those that sit.
Since the attainment of nationhood by Nigeria, there has not been any serious development on the rail system. The government is trying to come up with a national total train coverage but the effort is still in the drawing board.
Can Nigeria be the 20th economy with this type of transport system?
