Covid-19: 60 Lagos-Ibadan railway workers test positive
Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi has said that 60 Lagos-Ibadan railway project workers have contracted the dreaded coronavirus disease.
The Minister, who made this known during an interview with newsmen, said the railway project would have been inaugurated in the first week of January if not for the upsurge in the second wave.
According to him, it was important to reschedule the proposed January 2021 inauguration date even though no life has been lost.
“First let us admit that over 60 of our staff, not Ministry of Transportation staff, but the staff working on the rail project, have been infected by the virus.
