60,000km Road Linking Kenya To Lagos To Be Constructed by rodeo0070(m): 7:38am On Oct 31, 2018 |
Recently appointed as the African Union special envoy for infrastructure development in the continent Raila Odinga has announced plans to construct a 60,000km road linking Mombasa in Kenya to Lagos in Nigeria in a bid to link Africa through modern highways and railways. The opposition leader indicated that linking Kenya to Nigeria via road will be among his priorities as African Union’s high representative of infrastructure and development. He intends to oversee construction of 60,000km Trans-African highway project commissioned in 1971 to open up the continent for trade. “Primary projects will be an 8,000 km highway linking Cairo (Egypt) to Dakar in Senegal. Another 8,0000 km road will stretch from Cairo and Cape Town (South Africa). A 60,000kms road linking Mombasa (Kenya) to Lagos (Nigeria) is part of this ambitious project,” said Raila Odinga. Road infrastructure President Uhuru while congratulating Raila on the new appointment said the position would be beneficial to Kenya. Raila who said he accepted the role by AU because he believed land transport was an integral part of the continent’s economic growth added he intended to have another 4,700kms road between Dakar and Lagos built. He explained that out of nine highways proposed over four decades ago, only the 4,500kms road between Dakar and N’Djamena in Chad had been constructed. “My belief is that having reliable road infrastructure and railways linking all corners of Africa will open up the continent and make it a gateway to the 21st century. Through my new position I am determined to take Africa to economic independence,” affirmed Raila. SOURCE: https://brandspurng.com/60000km-road-linking-kenya-to-lagos-to-be-constructed/
