While appreciating the achievements of the Union’s National Executives, the Minister emphasizing that the manner in which they mobilized financial and material resources to build their National Secretariat in Abuja, the five star hotels in Kaduna and kwara States and the States zonal offices to generate more revenue for the Union and the improvement of the welfare of its members speaks volume of the activities of the esteemed Union.

Earlier in his address, the president of NURTW Alhaji Najeen Usman Yasin said transportation has played a vital role in the social, political, and economic development of nations. It provides the necessary means of marketing agricultural products, gaining access to mineral resources, developing, and expanding industry and trade, conducting health, education, and welfare programmes, and exchanging cultural ideas.

He also praised President Muhammadu Buhari’s laudable initiative of the Federal Government in the area of road rehabilitation, reconstruction, and fresh construction that cut across the country. It is our belief that, with the on- going spate of development by this administration, the deplorable condition of our highways across the country, particular federal road which have led to fatal road accidents resulting to loss of lives and properties will be alleviated in no distant future.

The occasion was well attended by dignitaries from the Transportation industry
