What is your plan for reforming Nigeria's transport infrastructure?
I will bring in private investors to finance development with their own capital, while government provides targeted incentives, including tax concessions where appropriate. This will allow us to build infrastructure, create jobs and grow the economy.
I will reform transport infrastructure through greater private sector participation. Government will shift from being the primary operator of transport systems to an enabler and regulator, opening space for private companies to play a bigger role.

2. Fix logistics and transport to lower the cost of goods. We will reduce the cost of moving people and goods across Nigeria by improving key transport systems and removing bottlenecks. ● Shift heavy cargo from roads to rail and waterways, reducing congestion and road damage ● Build rail links connecting ports, industrial zones, and agricultural hubs ● Develop logistics hubs and depots outside major cities to ease urban congestion ● Improve rural roads to connect farmers to markets
