On the Kaduna-Kano rail modernization
The senate, yesterday, has announced the China Development Bank as the new financier for the project paving way for its completion over the coming months.
The former financier, the China Exim Bank, had earlier backed off the project in 2020 citing Covid-19 pandemic among other issues as reasons bringing about delays in its completion.
The railway, a standard-gauge line stretching 203 kilometres, will link Kano to the nation’s capital, Abuja.
Reminder that President Bola Tinubu had earlier assured that the Ibadan-Abuja-Kaduna-Kano railway project would be completed to satisfaction as he continues to build on the success of his immediate past predecessor @MBuhari in railway revolution.
