I, Hon. Akeem Olalekan Dauda (AKOD), extend my heartfelt congratulations to Dr. Kayode Opeifa on his well-deserved appointment as the Managing Director of the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC).
Dr. Opeifa’s decades of exemplary service and dedication to the transport sector, both in Lagos State and at the national level, are testaments to his unparalleled expertise and commitment to excellence.
