Commissioner Harps On Effective Transportation

Rivers State Commissioner For Transport, Hon. George Tolofari has said an efficient transport system is a social responsibility that  the government owes its citizens.

He stated this in his office while speaking to journalists and highlighted the importance of modern and effective means of transportation.

Hon. Tolofari noted that this awareness informed government’s venture into the monorail project and promised that it is poised to deliver the phase IA of the monorail project before the end of this administration.

According to him, by 2013 anyone who is taking over as Governor of the state would be someone who shares the vision of Rt. Hon. Amaechi on the monorail project, adding that he believes the person would complete the project.

The commissioner said, when completed the monorail would be the first in West Africa and the fastest means of land transportation in the country.

He assured Rivers people that once the fuel problem stabilizes, the transportation fares would come back to the agreed price.
