[Infrastructure construction accelerates in six African countries] On February 1, 2026, the East and South African Trade and Development Bank announced the completion of a $250 million syndicated loan expansion agreement for Mota Engil Africa. The funds will be used to support major infrastructure projects in six countries including Angola, Nigeria, and Rwanda, including the Lobito Railway Corridor in Angola and the Kano Railway in Nigeria. The availability of funds coincides with the golden period of construction in many African countries, which will directly drive the project into a high-speed construction phase and alleviate the financial pressure on the supply chain. As a joint venture of China Communications Construction Corporation, Mota Engil's hybrid model has been recognized by international financial institutions and has brought supply chain and cooperation opportunities for Chinese enterprises to participate in regional projects.Editor/Gao Xue
