President Bola Tinubu has flagged off the commercial operation of Abuja Light Rail.
The flag-off was one of the activities planned by Minister Nyesom Wike of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, to commemorate President Tinubu’s first anniversary in office.
Persecondnews recalls that ex-President Muhammadu Buhari had in 2018 inaugurated the Abuja metro station.
In a brief address at the joint session, President Tinubu said: “This institution, the hallowed chamber, represents our consciousness from freedom and sense of belonging. You sang out the latest national anthem, “Nigeria we hail thee.”
“This is our diversity, representing all cradles and how we play together to be brothers and sisters.
“Without this house, probably I may not have found the path to the presidency I started before now, and that is why I am giving all the respect to you to please continue to collaborate, work together, and build our country. We have no other choice; it is our country.”
He congratulated Nigerians for 25 years of unbroken democracy, urging them to continue to collaborate and work together for the common good of the country.
