President Bola Tinubu has appointed Dr. Kayode Opeifa as new Managing Director of the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC).

Although a statement announcing the appointment was still being awaited from the Presidency as of 2.30pm on Wednesday, many sources told newstrends.ng that the letter had been delivered to the new NRC helmsman.

Reports say Opeifa’s appointment was announced on Wednesday morning in a statement by the Renewed Hope United Kingdom.

Opeifa, a seasoned transportation expert and former Lagos State Commissioner for Transportation, has built a distinguished career marked by impactful reforms.

As commissioner, he introduced policies that significantly improved public transport and traffic management in Lagos, one of Africa’s busiest cities.

His contributions helped ease congestion and laid a strong foundation for the state’s rapid urban development.

He later served as Transport Secretary for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), where he continued implementing progressive policies to enhance mobility in the nation’s capital.

“With this new role, Dr Opeifa is expected to lead the modernisation of Nigeria’s railway network, a crucial component of the country’s economic growth,” the post read.

“His vast experience in transportation planning and infrastructure development has raised expectations among industry stakeholders, who see him as the right fit to drive meaningful reforms.

“His appointment has drawn widespread commendation, with many citing his deep understanding of Nigeria’s transportation challenges and his ability to implement sustainable solutions.”

It is believed that under his leadership, enhancing railway connectivity and efficiency could significantly boost trade, commerce, and overall national development.

According to the statement, this appointment highlights the Tinubu administration’s commitment to selecting skilled professionals to execute its Renewed Hope agenda.

“As Nigeria aims for a more efficient and accessible railway system, expectations are high that Dr Opeifa will bring lasting and meaningful progress,” the statement read.
