The President, Muhammadu Buhari,
has said the 11.9km Second Niger Bridge and the 120 km Lagos-Ibadan Expressway
will be completed before his regime ends in 2023.
Buhari also assured that other
key projects under the Presidential Infrastructure Development Fund will be completed
in the same period.
The President gave the assurance
at the opening of a two-day Mid-Term Ministerial Performance Review Retreat
organised to assess progress made towards the achievement of the nine key
priorities of his regime.
At the event, Buhari highlighted some
of the notable achievements of the Federal Government in the last two years,
mostly in areas of infrastructure, transportation, economy, electricity supply,
the petroleum industry, among others.
‘‘On transportation, we are
growing the stock and quality of our road, rail, air and water transport
infrastructure.
‘‘The PIDF projects are also
advancing remarkably. These include the 11.9km Second Niger Bridge, 120 km
Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, 375 km Abuja – Kaduna – Zaria – Kano Expressway and
the East-West Road. Most of these projects are expected to be completed within
this 2nd term of our Administration,’’ he was quoted by the Special Adviser to
the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.
