 Minister of Transportation Rotimiamechi says President Mohamed Buhari will inaugurate the construction of the Kanwukidu Nareel project in the next few weeks. The minister who was speaking at the weekly presidential media briefing, organized by the State House Media Unit, said already all contracts for the project had been awarded, while the loan for the project was not forthcoming from China as earlier planned. He said the project would now be funded from the Ministry budgetary allocation, as the federal government would not continue to wait endlessly for the loan. According to him, the federal government has already paid $218 million for the contractors, saying additional $100 million will be paid to them and making it $318 million.
