Presidential aide, GARBA SHEHU, has reiterated President MUHAMMADU BUHARI’S desire to finish major projects across the country before handing over power in 2023.
He made the remark today during an interview on a monitored television program, noting that that is the major preoccupation of the government.
SHEHU listed some of the projects to include the second Niger Bridge; Lagos-Ibadan Expressway; East-West Road; Calabar- Lagos railway; Maiduguri-Port Harcourt railway and Ibadan-Port Harcourt rail line.
Aside from infrastructure, he also re-echoed president BUHARI’S earlier call to Nigerian youths to embrace agriculture even though he admitted the Federal Government alone cannot fund the sector.
According to him, to see growth in the sector, people have to look beyond the government who he said is more concerned about providing the enabling environment for agriculture to flourish.
