The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi and the Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami has been sued for allegedly awarding a 190km rail line construction to a Chinese firm.
A letter issued to the Federal High Court by the Bureau of Public Procurement, BPP, seeks to cancel the N91.5 billion rail line contract between China Civil Engineering Construction Company, CCECC.
The letter restrained Amaechi from presenting the CCECC to Federal Executive Council, FEC, for the purpose of awarding the contract.
It ordered the court to set aside any approval received from the FEC, awarding the disputed contract to any other company during the pendency of the suit.
