Easter: Osun offers free train ride for holiday goers

Osun State Government has provided free train ride for people travelling home from Lagos to Osogbo for Easter celebration.

Those travelling from towns on the route between Lagos state and Osun state will also benefit from the free trip. The train will stop over at designated Train stations in Ogun and Oyo states.
