He mentioned that he had also considered Zaria in Kaduna State before settling on Daura.<\/p>\n<p>Amaechi also discussed the controversy surrounding the Kano-Maradi rail project, which critics claimed was politically motivated because it passed through Daura.<\/p>\n<p>He defended the project, stating that it was part of an ECOWAS corridor and the design had been developed during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.<\/p>\n<p>The project aimed to make Nigeria more competitive with countries like the Ivory Coast, Ghana, and Benin Republic in transporting goods for landlocked states.<\/p>\n<p>Amaechi further recalled how he faced resistance from some groups when introducing joint security patrols on waterways as part of the Deep Blue project.<\/p>\n<p>Minister of Marine and Blue Economy Adegboyega Oyetola, represented by Mr. Yusuf Muhammad, emphasized the importance of integrating ports with roads, railways, and inland waterways to optimize trade and reduce congestion, aligning with broader goals for economic growth and environmental sustainability.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Minister Rotimi Amaechi revealed that Buhari
