Benin \u2013 Gov.\u00a0 Adams\u00a0 Oshiomhole\u00a0 of\u00a0 Edo, yesterady, in Benin appealed to the Federal Government to connect the South South states with railway lines.<\/p>\n

He made the appeal when Amb.\u00a0 Joe Keshi, Director General of\u00a0 Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Edo and\u00a0 Delta (BRACED) Commission\u00a0 paid him a visit at the Government House in Benin.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The governor said linking the six South South states with railway lines would promote economic growth in the region
\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no reason why the South-South states should not be connected via a rail line when other regions are,\u2019\u2019 he said.
He said the BRACED Commission was inaugurated to bring about economic integration in the states constituting the region.
\u201c We believe that the BRACED Commission offers enormous potentials in integrating our states. It is legitimate to get together so that we can get what is due to us,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

The governor assured the ambassador that the state government would give the commission the support it required to achieve its objectives.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Earlier, Keshi had lauded the governor for embarking on programmes that would better the living standard of\u00a0 the people. (NAN)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
