나이지리아 대통령, 대형 고속도로 프로젝트를 위해 5억 1,630만 달러 차입 요청

Nigerian President Requests $516m Loan for Major Highway Project

볼라 티누부 대통령은 이슬람개발은행의 보험 담당 기구인 이슬람투자수출신용보험공사의 보험 지원을 받아 독일 은행 AG에서 5억 1,630만 달러를 차입하는 제안을 상원에서 승인해 줄 것을 요청했다. 티누부는 이 자금이 그의 '재신 희망 의제'의 기함 프로젝트인 소콜로-바다그리 슈퍼하이웨이 건설에 사용될 것이라고 말했다.

제안된 고속도로는 소콜로, 케비, 니제르, 콰라, 오yo, 오군, 라고스 주를 연결하는 1,000킬로미터 길이의 대용량 도로로, 일렐라에서 바다그리까지 뻗어 있다. 이 요청은 행정부의 또 다른 60억 달러 외부 차입 계획이 의원들에게 승인된 지 불과 한 달 후에 나왔다. 새로운 요청은 나이지리아의 증가하는 채무 부담과 채무 상환 압력에 대한 우려 속에서 나왔다.

전 부통령 아티쿠 아부바카르는 티누부를 비판하며 나이지리아가 개발을 명목으로 "무분별하게 차입해서는 안 된다"고 경고했다.

President Bola Tinubu has asked the Senate to approve a proposal to borrow $516.3 million from Deutsche Bank AG, with insurance backing from the Islamic Corporation for the Insurance of Investment and Export Credit, the insurance arm of the Islamic Development Bank. Tinubu said the facility would finance the construction of the Sokoto-Badagry Superhighway, a flagship project under his Renewed Hope Agenda.

The proposed highway is a 1,000-kilometre high-capacity carriageway linking Sokoto, Kebbi, Niger, Kwara, Oyo, Ogun, and Lagos states, stretching from Illela to Badagry. The request comes barely a month after lawmakers approved another $6 billion external borrowing plan by the administration. The new request comes amid concerns over the country's rising debt burden and debt servicing pressures.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has criticised Tinubu over his request, warning that Nigeria must not "borrow blindly" in the name of development.
