Nigerians will have to wait till end of 4 years for change - Amaechi

- Amaechi said the APC-led government has heard the complaints from Nigerians about the situation of the economy
- He noted that the APC did not promise to fix the country’s challenges in one year
- The transport minister added that Nigerians will have to wait for four years before they can judge the APC-led government
- He accused the National Assembly of stopping the federal government from fixing infrastructure problems
The minister of transportation Rotimi Amaechi said Nigerians have to wait till the end of four years for the change promised by the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He said the APC did not promise Nigerians that it would fix the country’s promises within a year, Daily Trust reports.
Speaking on Monday, February 6, during a north central town hall meeting ‎for the people of Kogi, Niger and Kwara organized by the federal government in Ilorin, Kwara state, the minister said: “We did not promise you that those challenges will be solved in one year, if we promise you that those challenges would be solved in one year you would have given us one year but you gave us four years mandate so wait till the end of four years.”


Amaechi noted that the federal government has heard the cries of Nigerians that things were difficult but they would have to wait till the end of the four years mandate given to the administration before judging whether the government had performed or not‎.
The minister accused the National Assembly of holding the federal government back from fixing infrastructure problems and creating jobs with their failure to approve its borrowing plan.
The federal government has secured $7.5 billion loan for the construction of standard rail gauge from Lagos to Kano.


Amaechi said the loan which was secured from a Chinese bank and waiting for approval of the National Assembly is part of the $30 billion loan the federal government seeks to take.
He urged Nigerians to impress it on the National Assembly to approve the loan for work on the project to commence.


Others at the town hall meeting were the ministers of information and culture, Lai Mohammed; budget and national planning, Zainab Ahmed, water; Suleman Adamu; state for mining and steel, Abubakar Bawa Bwari and trade and investment, Ayishat Abubakar.
Recall that Nigerians took to the streets today to protest against the federal government. The massive nationwide protest was held in Lagos and Abuja.
Following the protest, the acting President Yemi Osinbajo, said that President Muhammadu Buhari has heard the cries of Nigerians “loud and clear”.
