The deal was signed by the Minister of transportation, Rotimi Amaechi.
The contract is an addendum to the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Railway project, which was initially awarded by the former President Goodluck Jonathan’s Administration to CCECC at a contract sum of $11.917 billion
The contract was however reviewed to $11.117 billion.

Amaechi attributed the reduction to the fall in the price of steel among other factors.

He said part of the contract agreement with CCECC is to expedite action and conclude arrangement with the China-Exim Bank to facilitate the commencement of work on the Railway project
Nigeria President Muhammadu Buhari had last December, met with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, to discuss how to re-commence stalled rail projects under new terms that would see China providing nearly all the financing required.
