FORGET IT NIGERIAN ECONOMY CANNOT SUPPORT NEW LOCOMOTIVE TRAINS...OKUPE

 In an interview with Adeola Fayehun of Sahara TV, Presidential aide Doyin Okupe, while reacting to a question on why trains seen in Nigeria are looking very locomotive compared to the ones in America, said that: "Forget it. We are not America. You cannot have brand new trains because the economy cannot support that."he said 

Asked why Nigeria economy cannot support the purchase of brand new trains since we have been quoted as the largest economy in Africa, Dr Okupe only said; "We are the largest market. We are the largest economy" and the video fades out. 

See the Nigerians reaction to Mr Okupe's statement. See that after the cut...

Abike Dabiri-Erewa, in her reaction wrote: ‘’Its an absolute display of mediocrity 2 (to) attempt 2(to) justify the use of trains purchased over 2 decades ago as transformation’
