The Kaduna State Government has earmarked over N4 billion for the Kaduna Metropolitan Rapid Rail Transport project to begin in 2017.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the amount is part of the N24.06 billion provided for projects under the State Ministry of Works, Housing and Transport in the 2017 budget.

Governor Nasiru El-Rufa’i had on Wednesday, October 12, presented an appropriation bill of over N215.9 billion to the State House of Assembly for approval.

The estimate for the 2017 fiscal year included N85.5 billion for recurrent expenditure and N130.3 billion for capital projects.

The first phase of the intra-city Kaduna light rail project will link Rigachikun with the refinery.

The government indicated that funds for the rail project would be sourced through a loan from the Central Bank of Nigeria.

“The state government also voted N2, 445,160,730.00 for the ongoing state trunk road project, while township road projects will gulp N7,705,788,694.58 in the fiscal year. ”

According to the breakdown, the government equally earmarked N1.5 billion for the construction and acquisition of new state government administration buildings and N500 million for street lights.

Elrufai wants to embezzle for his Presidential bid just like Amsechi did

Responsible governors who are doing everything to better their states and people are bad and corrupt, but your own incompetent, vision less and unproductive governors with zero ideas are good even though they collect your taxes and allocations.

we should learn to criticize constructively. Sincerely I think what he is doing is commendable. The project on its own will create job and wealth for the local community.

It will be nice that 90% of the contract be awarded to people of kaduna state. Let the money circulate among them through supplies, construction etc and by so doing wealth creation is done. It shouldn't be given to one foreign firm who will take the money once to china or Europe.
