President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday asked the Senate to approve an external loan of $29.96 billion to execute key Infrastructural projects across the country. Some of the projects include;
1. The East West
2. Mambilla Hydro Power Station.
3. Dualization Of Suleja-Minna Road.
4. Standard guage Ibadan-Kano Rail line.
5. Calabar-PH-Aba-Makurdi-Bauchi-Maiduguri Rail Line.
6. Dualization Of Ibadan-Ilorin-Jebba Road.
7. 2,500 KM Power Transmission Lines & Power Transformers
8. Funding & Upgrades Of 18 Federal Universities.
9. Total Overhauling Of Ajaokuta Steel Company.
10. Dualization Of Lokoja-Okene-Auchi-Benin Road.
My take: I will expect SP @DrAhmadLawan led Senate to approve the Loan request.
