Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum, is making history with the launch of the state’s first-ever intrastate railway system. The ambitious project, set to commence with 12 terminals in Maiduguri, aims to connect markets, schools, and economic hubs, revolutionizing the state’s transport network and boosting economic activities.

This groundbreaking initiative positions Borno among the forward-thinking states prioritizing seamless transport systems, which are crucial for national development. Public response to the project has been overwhelmingly positive, with many praising Governor Zulum’s visionary leadership and calling on other northern states, particularly heavily populated ones like Kano, to adopt similar measures. The move is seen as a much-needed relief amidst rising transportation costs following the removal of the fuel subsidy.

While the majority applaud this innovative venture, some have raised concerns about its funding and long-term sustainability. Critics worry that the railway could become a “white elephant” project if not properly managed. However, many citizens express confidence in Governor Zulum’s proven track record of delivering impactful developmental projects, trusting that he will ensure the railway’s success.

In addition to praises, residents have offered suggestions for the project’s execution. One responder advised against contracting the project to firms allegedly known for delivering substandard work on state contracts. Others recommended leveraging solar energy as the primary power source for the railway, citing its cost-efficiency and environmental benefits.

Governor Zulum’s bold initiative is poised to set a new standard for infrastructure development in Nigeria’s northern region. As the project unfolds, the spotlight remains on the governor’s ability to balance innovation with effective funding and management strategies.

This historic move is not just a win for Borno but a model for other states striving to address transport challenges and drive economic growth.
