Transportation Minister Rotimi Amaechi and his Ghanaian colleague, Kwaku Ofori Asiamah, will be touring the Lagos-Ibadan speed train site tomorrow.
It will be Asiamah’s first visit with his Nigerian colleague, since the $1.7 billion project began in June, 2017.
The 156-kilometre long construction is being handled by the Chinese multinational corporation, China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC).
The two ministers will also be joined on the tour by the members of the Senate Committee on Land Transport, led by its chairman Senator Gbenga Ashafa, top management of the Federal Ministry of Transportation and top government officials from Lagos, Ogun and Oyo states.

It will be Amaechi’s second visit this month, having earlier visited on March 8, when he issued a marching order to CCECC to get the rail tracks laid to kilometre 120, some 36 kilometres to the heart of Ibadan.
