Coronavirus Prevents The Completion Of Lagos-Ibadan Rail

Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, disclosed this during a live television programme on African Independent Television in Abuja.

 The minister said the employees of the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, the contractor handling the project, were still in China on the orders of the Chinese government. 

He said, “If not for coronavirus we would have finished the Lagos-Ibadan rail, although the project is nearly completed. The CCECC workers are still in China.”
