Buhari Rides in Jonathan’s Train for His Campaigns but he claims the President has achieved nothing!

For a long time, members of the All
progressives Congress (APC) have desperately
been claiming that the government of
President Goodluck Jonathan has not achieved
anything in the nearly six years it has been in
office.
To replace him, they have projected serial
presidential aspirant, General Mohammadu
Buhari to replace him in the February 14
elections.
But it is interesting to note that Buhari and his
team in APC have been able to travel to their
campaign grounds in some parts of the country
via the newly rehabilitated railway system
which is initiatives of the Jonathan
government.
Recall that the same rail transport system was
destroyed and practically left for dead by
General Buhari during his sojourn as military
Head of State.
People are wont to ask: What if President
Jonathan had not taken the bull by its horns to
breathe life back into the rail system?
Would Buhari have been able to attend his
rallies where he takes ample time to discredit
the achievements of President Jonathan?
While commissioning new trains last year, The
president had lamented the total neglect of
such a critical system of transport by
successive governments. Although he did not
mention names, every Nigerian knows it was
Buhari's government that destroyed the
Nigerian Railway Corporation between 1984
and 1985.
Speaking during that ceremony, President
Jonathan has promised that "The step is aimed
at resuscitating and revitalising Nigerian
railway which had suffered neglect for
decades."
That decade began when Buhari was in power.
But strangely, the same Buhari is riding on one
of those trains to campaign for election to
replace the same man who had brought the
trains back to life after he had sent them to
the gallows.
