While explaining further, the transportation minister said:
“We have hit the road, go there you will see people boarding to Kaduna but on the official ceremony when it will take place, I have to clear that from the president.
“We are not collecting money yet because we said we will start collecting money from the day the president flags it off.

“And currently from what we saw today, the number of passengers boarding the train have exceeded the good number of coaches that we have. We have about four coaches and that will take about 380 persons and we have over 380 persons boarding the train.
“What we just decided now is that we need to get more coaches and more locomotives.”
It was gathered by News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) also that the test-run of the Abuja to Kaduna standard gauge rail started last month.
The federal government is thinking of big plans which move the nation forward. About six days ago, the minister of trade and investment, Dr Okechukwu Enelamah said FG will implement the National Automotive Industry Development Plan (NAIDP), which bring growth in the auto industry and not do away with it.
