Buhari administration has built more infrastructure than US government

By our reporter/ The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) administration of President Muhammadu Buhari has has built more infrastructure than the United state government, minister of works and housing, Babatunde Fashola said on Thursday.

Fashola who stated this in Kano during the “APC conversation series”, an initiative of the ruling party to create awareness on its achievements in the last seven years, revealed that as at December 2021, the Buhari government have completed 941 kilometers of roads across all states and geopolitical zones.

“I can assure you that the present APC administration of President Buhari has achieved what even the US government is trying to do in terms of infrastructure, Fashola said.

“As at December 2021, we have completed 941 kilometers of roads across all states and geopolitical zones.

“In Kano state here, for instance, there are 21 road projects either in, around or in the neighbouring communities.

“Before APC administration, when last do you remember Federal Government completing 50 kilometer road in any part of the country?

“So, this is the positive change we promised Nigerians in 2015 and it is already happening. They say we are the same with them, but we are not. They stole money and took it abroad, but we are taking this money back and investing it in the area of infrastructure,” Fashola added.

According to the minister, there are 850 ongoing projects under his ministry, including roads and bridges construction as well as houses in 34 states of the country.
