[size=16pt]Nigeria Approves $369m For Ship-Building Facility[/size] October 24, 2013 Ehidiamhen Okpamen VENTURES AFRICA – Nigeria has approved a N58.6 billion ($369 million) fund for the construction of a ship building facility in the Niger Delta region of the country. The country’s Minister of Transport, Idris Umar, told reporters that an initial N40.2 billion ($253.2 million) will be provided for the delivery of maritime equipment, with a further N18.4 billion ($115.9 million) for civil and structural engineering works. According to him, the project will be situated in Delta State – a move that strategically targets Nigeria’s oil industry. He highlighted the manufacturing deficit present in the shipping industry, which, according to him, costs millions of dollars in overseas vessel acquisition. “We have a very serious dearth in the ship building capacity in the country and it is, therefore, imperative that we develop the facility in order to curtail the incessant capital flight that is being experienced by the Nigerian economy. “Annually, we have to be acquiring vessels and ships outside the country which is telling on the economy,” the minister explained. Once completed, the facility will help reduce the amount spent on procuring ships from foreign manufacturers. According to the minister, the project has the propensity to drive sustainable development and capacity building in Nigeria’s maritime sector. “It will also help Nigeria to take its rightful place among the developed maritime nations across the world,’’ the minister added. The project is in line with the West African nation’s drive towards local production of ships and other maritime facilities. Presently, Nigeria operates 6 ports – Lagos Port Complex and Tincan Island Port Complex, as well as that of Rivers, Delta, Calabar and Onne. http://www.ventures-africa.com/2013/10/nigeria-approves-369m-ship-building-facility/ 1 Like |

oyb: Fraudulent topic reported I'm here wondering why it is OK when Lagos approves something and it is said that Fashola Builds...... But totally absurd when Nigeria approves, Jonathan builds. Is it that Fashola is an Architect and Jonathan is a Zoologist, hence Jonathan should not be building?? Is that the point you are trying to make? Cos I really don't get it. Learn English. Future present tense. And incase you dont know, budget approval is a huge part of a building process. Haters of progress always angry when Jonathan chooses to do something great even when they would be beneficiaries. 11 Likes |

Good to see that competent people have cleaned up the brazen effortless bs of the spin and spellers from aso rock. No more duplicituos title from those who have failed so much that they can only make up stories. Rossik should find his way to naijastories.com he and papacolorofsheet are marginally good at fiction |
