The federal government says the construction of the Port Harcourt-Maiduguri eastern rail line by the current administration is no longer feasible.
Mu’azu Sambo, minister of transportation, said this on Wednesday.
According to him, the delay is due to the federal government’s inability to secure foreign loans that will make 85 percent of the funds needed to execute for the project.
Sambo disclosed this while fielding questions on what is hindering the administration from delivering the project before May 29, 2023 as earlier promised.
