Amaechi said Buhari, in spite of criticism of the huge borrowing, had been constructing railway lines since his administration came on board in 2015.

The minister also hinted that the construction of the Lagos -Calabar rail line that would pass through Lekki Deep Seaport down to Epe Township would be completed and commissioned by September.
