Minister of Transportation,
Chibuike Amaechi, has threatened to sack the manager and workers of the Idu
Train Station in Abuja.
The Minister said he had received
complaints that the workers were selling tickets illegally.
In a viral video, Amaechi is seen
issuing stern warning, saying that even if she goes to court after the sack, it
won’t yield any fruit.
The Minister said, “I’m not
joking. I hear complaints on how you people will sell tickets to a group of
people and they will go outside and sell it at high cost and people will come
here to find no ticket to buy.
“If I hear that complaint again,
you know the problem with Nigeria? There are no consequences for action. That’s
the problem. So, I’ll set you as an example.
“You can go to court. By the time
you finish at the high court, Appeal Court and Supreme Court, I have retired
from politics, I’ve retired from office. You cannot be collecting…, I mean,
people will come and collect ticket in bulk for N1000 and go and sell outside
for N1500.
“If I hear it again, I’ll start
with you. When I was a Governor, my principle was that if you take the big man
out, the poor people will runaway.”
