Governor regrets obtaining ₦1 trillion loan for infrastructure projects

Niger State Governor Mohammed Bago says his administration made a “miscalculation” by obtaining a ₦1 trillion loan to fund infrastructure projects.

The government obtained the loan in 2023 to fund an initiative positioned as a transformative effort to modernise roads, bridges, and other public utilities, particularly in rural areas.

However, concerns over the financial burden and the slow pace of project execution have led to fresh scrutiny.
