Nigeria’s Federal Executive Council (FEC) approves funding for transport infrastructure, including road works and new vessels, according to reports from Vanguard and The Punch. Vanguard says FEC approves about ₦2.078 trillion for road infrastructure across 10 states, describing it as part of the federal government’s effort to expand and modernise the national transport network. The Punch reports a larger overall figure, stating FEC approves ₦3.94 trillion for 25 road projects across 10 states, alongside ₦286 billion for new vessels aimed at improving Nigeria’s port system. While the two outlets differ on the total road allocation—Vanguard citing about ₦2.078 trillion and The Punch citing ₦3.94 trillion including multiple components—the reporting is consistent on the scope: road projects are scheduled across 10 states, and FEC funding also covers maritime assets through the purchase of new vessels. Both accounts describe the approvals as part of broader transport-sector development.
