Amaech Rescinds Promise On Completion Of Lagos-Ibadan Rail

The Minister for Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, on Monday after inspecting the ongoing Lagos-Ibadan rail line project, declared that the project may not be competed in April as earlier stated.

Amaechi while giving updates on the inspection via his Twitter handle, said that  it was not certain that the project would be ready in April as earlier planned.

However, the former governor of Rivers State  assured Nigerians that efforts would be intensified to ensure the completion of the project within the stipulated time.

He tweeted, “Today (Monday), Oyo State Governor is accompanying us on the monthly inspection of work on the Lagos-Ibadan rail line. We are going the whole nine yards.

“From the mega station in Ebute Metta to Apapa and all the way to Ibadan. A large chunk of this rail line is in Oyo State.

“Looking at the state of work in Apapa, completing the project in April doesn’t seem feasible, especially the extension of the rail line to the seaport.

“We’ll, however, continue to work and redouble our efforts to complete the project and meet set targets.”
