Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, on Monday, announced that the contractor in charge of the construction of the Kano-Maradi rail line would build a university in his home state in Rivers.
Amaechi, who was a two-term governor of the South-South state, said the company would build the university as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility to Nigeria.
“We already have a Transportation University being built in Daura. So, we have decided that the Portugese Company in charge of Kano-Maradi rail line, Mota Engil will build a Multi-disciplinary University in Rivers State as a major component of their Corporate Social Responsibility,” the minister tweeted on Monday.
