Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has expressed gratitude to President Bola Tinubu for supporting the state's transport reform, particularly the Lagos Rail Mass Transit (LRMT) Blue Line project. 


Speaking during an inspection of the newly-imported rolling stock for the project, Governor Sanwo-Olu described the arrival of the coaches as a significant milestone that will boost the state's efforts in delivering an efficient and modern rail service.


The governor commended President Tinubu's commitment to Nigeria's infrastructure development, saying the funding and capacity for the transaction were made possible by the Federal Government. 


Stating that the new coaches will complement existing ones, reducing turnaround time and travel time for millions of Lagos residents, he pledged to complete the rail project on schedule, ensuring the trains meet the highest standard of safety and comfort. 


Emphasizing that with the new coaches, the capacity of the Blue Line will be doubled, thereby providing a more reliable and predictable train experience for passengers, the governor reiterated his administration's commitment to its THEMES Plus Agenda.
