THE Nasarawa State Government said it has put modalities in place to construct a rail line that would connect the state and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
The Commissioner for Works, Housing and Transport Hon. Wada Mohammed who disclosed this in an interview with Nigerian Tribune, said, the government is also in talks with the National Inland Water Authority to start up a water port in Tunga, Umasha and Loko.

He also stated that the governor is set to embark on the construction of the Lafia city gate in order to increase the aesthetic value of the state’s capital.
