FCTA Announces Abuja Light Rail Completion Deadline

Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) has said that Abuja light rail will be completed by May 2024.

VerseNews reports that the transport Secretariat of the Federal Capital Territory Administration, FCTA, has assured residents of Abuja of adequate security when the Abuja Light Rail begins operations.

The Secretary of the secretariat, Ubokutom Nyah, gave the assurance after inspecting the ongoing rehabilitation of the metro rail line project in Abuja.

“We hope that the nine months completion scheduled period will come earlier. The residents of the FCT are in for a big surprise and a good time.

“We have gone through over 60 per cent of the rail tracks and I can convincingly state that the vandalised parts of the tracks have been duly completed.

“The cleaning is going on and I am told that the communication cables are already on the port and will soon come in.

“The completion of the ARMT might come sooner than it was expected, because what we have seen today is a great job,”
