The Kazaure-Daura, Dutse-Kazaure and Daura railway projects will be completed by 2026, according to the Minister of Transportation, Mu’azu Sambo.

“So what I did was to approach the National Universities Commission to appoint a mentor university for us so that we will be able to start admission against 2023/2024 academic year. The NUC appointed ABU to mentor the Federal University of Transportation Daura.“So far, after the accreditation, the university admitted over 500 students enlisted in 14 different disciplines. We have started the admission and we outsourced lecturers on a visiting basis.

“I am impressed with the project. The contractor has done well, however, there are a lot of challenges like water, electricity and we are on top of the situation to fix the university to the national grid and we find a lasting solution to the water problem”, the minister disclosed.Sambo assured of the Federal Government’s commitment to link the narrow gate from Lagos to Kano dry port, as part of measures to save roads and reduce the menace of road traffic accidents.
