China-Exim Bank has rejected a loan request by the federal government.
As a result, the House of Representatives, on Tuesday, approved the request by the Federal Government to borrow $973,474,971.38 from China Development Bank.
This followed the decision by the China-Exim Bank to reject Nigeria’s $22,798,446,773 loan request earlier approved by the National Assembly.
The Chairman of the House Committee on Rules and Business, Abubakar Fulata, moved a motion for the legislative chamber to amend its resolution granting approval for the failed loan deal.
The motion was titled ‘Rescission of the 2016–2018 Federal Government External Borrowing (Rolling) Plan.’
