Read Time:47 Second

President Tinubu has approved the implementation of a free train ride for any Nigerian wishing to travel to celebrate the Christmas festivities.

Minister of Information and National Orientation, Mohammed Idris, made the announcement on Monday while briefing journalists on the outcome of the Federal Executive Council, FEC, meeting.

He noted that the free train ride will commence on 20 December 2024 and end on 5 January 2025.

Idris explained, “As we did last year, there will be free train service to all Nigerians from December 20 up until January 5, free train service nationwide.

“This is consistent with the President’s desire to cushion the effect of transportation, especially to the most vulnerable Nigerians.

“Recall that this also happened in the last Christmas period and the Sallah period. And the President has also approved that this year.”

According to Idris, Nigerians can access the train rides on all the routes where train services are currently being rendered.
