The Southwest Development Commission, created barely a year ago (March 26, 2025), has just secured a provisional Rail Operating and Track License from the Nigeria Railway Corporation. As planned, the project will revive old unserved routes. It will connect all 6 Southwest states: Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo, and Ekiti through a 44-city rail network to boost industries and GDP.
Between 2000 and 2026, NDDC has supervised around N8 trillion in cumulative budget.
The North East Development Commission has received over N1.5 trillion since its creation in 2017.
Yet, the most recently created regional development commission is advancing on city-to-city rail transport infrastructure.
When this is achieved, some people will excuse the failure from their end by saying they used federal money to develop the Southwest and abandoned others.
Are the leaders in your geopolitical zone/region serious about development? Do they have a collective vision? Do you hold them accountable?
Do you even care?
