 The Abuja Kaduna Kano Highway will be completed in 24 months, according to the Minister of Works David Umayy. The move was made after an agreement with the road contractor Julius Berger, construction company. The government had given the contract in 2018 with a 36-month completion time, but failed to meet its promise. Umayy blamed the delay on lack of funds and assured the government's commitment to end the road on time. Berger agreed to complete 15 kilometers daily due to the new date. We are looking at 15-kilometer completion every month, which is very, very serious. A four-kilometer section is a tour order, but Berger can do it. And so we are looking at 24 months to finish the project. It can only be Berger that will finish in 24 months. So with a short, you know, financing model by the Honorable Minister for Finance, they are reassured and they are going to come back with a go. The ongoing attempts to improve domestic resource mobilization, to improve the revenues of government, to ensure that what is due to the people comes into the covers of government to fund such as this, or to provide the equity basis for funding, what is in many ways a highly viable project such as this one is being worked on, is being improved and the funding will be made of it.
