<\/p>\n

Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has said that God and President Muhammadu Buhari would decide those to be appointed as ministers.<\/p>\n

Amaechi made this remark while stressing that his reappointment as minister would be at the discretion of the President.<\/p>\n

Featuring on Channels Television, Amaechi said, \u201cI am not the president; the president will decide those who will come back. So its between God and the president. I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not in a position to access my performance. (I consider myself) a huge success. What are the promises the President made?<\/p>\n

Amaechi also disclosed that the Lagos-Ibadan railway will solve the constant gridlock on the Apapa road in Lagos.<\/p>\n

He stated that before the traffic would be addressed, the Ibadan-Kano should be handled with goods cleared first before the decongestion can take place.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy fear is that if we don\u2019t continue from Ibadan to Kano, then we are leaving the problem at Ibadan.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have applied for a loan facility from China. Once we get that, we will continue with the construction from Ibadan to Kano. And once we do that, you will see that the goods will be dissipating.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe transport nearly about 30 million tonnes of cargo per year from that Apapa to Kano. As we are transporting it, only 200 tonnes go by rail,\u201d he said<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
