Respectfully what is true fact checked the Kano–Maradi railway is indeed progressing under President Tinubu’s administration.

As of 2025–2026, the project is reported to be about 60% completed.

Bridge construction is part of the ongoing work, especially along challenging terrains.

Respectfully what is misleading the project did not start under Tinubu. It was approved in 2020 under President Buhari and contracted to Mota-Engil.

The viral post frames the bridge as a new Tinubu initiative, which is inaccurate.

No official source confirms the specific “long stretch rail bridge” shown in the post as a new milestone attributable solely to Tinubu.

Conclusion the project is real, and construction is ongoing, including bridges — but the claim exaggerates Tinubu’s role and misrepresents the origin of the project.
