Akwa Ibomites are not sentimental wrecks as those terrorists, PMB embarked on fixing the niger bridge, the most sort after thing in eastern Nigeria, and you guys are still seething with so much hate...
If Akwa Ibomite supported the Nigeria project even with no fed assistance, imagine the support after we hv our own port. Ipob terrorist are on very long things

Simple. Now that the iron is hot it can be moulded. This is the time to strike it. Once the owners of Nigeria awake from the turbulence they will fight back. Rise now or be silent for long. How many people can they kill at once. If Cross-Riverians sit back and form good boy they will be left behind.

That is how nations grow and prosper. They negotiate their participation in various unions that form states. 'Give me this and. that and I will remain to strengthen the union', simple. That is real change and Nigeria must change to a nation of democratic negotiations. One set of people cannot sit back and decide how all others live and die.

Despite the yearly allocation of several billions of naira for the construction of a proposed greenfield deep seaport at Ibaka in Akwa Ibom State by both the State Government and the Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA) since 2011, the project has remained elusive, with no evidence of a port being built at the proposed site.

The project is missing in the National Integrated Infrastructure Master Plan and in the list of similar projects planned in partnership between the federal government and state government, with expectations of private investors collaborations, investigations by LEADERSHIP have revealed.


The Ibaka Deep Seaport, a project for which the federal ministry of transport, the NPA and the Akwa Ibom State Government have held several workshops and taken commendations at several events is also missing in a maritime and air transport report prepared by Steer Davies Gleave for the Infrastructure Consortium for Africa (ICA) hosted by

The African Development Bank.

The study, which was carried out to assess the potential for enhanced private participation in the maritime and air transport sectors in Africa however identified the Lekki Deep Seaport measuring 970m of container berths, 320m dry bulk berth, 1-2 oil berths and located 60km east of Lagos.

The Badagry greefield port, Koko Port and Olokola Port were also listed with their capacity and promoters.

The water at Ibaka is said to have a natural draft of 11 metres, without dredging, making it a huge potential for possible deep seaport construction.

Akwa Ibom State has continued to budget for the port, which Governor Godswill Akpabio said would create employment for 100,000 Nigerians.

The NPA had also told LEADERSHIP in Uyo at the PCC meeting that the deep seaport would be completed in 2015.

When LEADERSHIP visited the proposed site of the deep seaport at Ibaka, there was nothing to show that a seaport was being planned at coastal community.

A lonely dilapidated narrow road, better described as a colonial road leads to Ibaka, from Oron. As early as 2011, the Akwa Ibom State Governor told a Nigeria Ports Consultative Council (PCC) meeting in Uyo that his government had concluded plans to dualise the road.


http://allafrica.com/stories/201312160580.html


Akpabio budgets billions every year for this invisible seaport.

1. Ibaka seaport is not in the FG gazette and there is zero FG budget for it.

Meaning the FG doesn't know anything about this seaport officially

2. Akpabio budgets billions for this bridge every year with not even bush clearing or fence erected.

Meaning Akpabio pockets free billions every year.


So, who is deceiving who? SS leaders who are directly responsible for their own people, but deceiving, looting and and stealing from their own people.


Leadership is local, not federal.

Re: FG Declares Support For Akwa-Ibom Sea Port Project by GreenCap: 4:07pm On Sep 25, 2017
Lagos is a natural habour.

next is Ibaka, best place to site a wharf East of the Niger and proposed by Great Britain in 1952.
it does not require dredging

Calabar is an inland port, 75 kilometers from the Atlantic ocean.

Port Harcourt is not Bonny or Brass. remember there's no bridge to link Rivers or Bayelsa deep sea.

Onitsha and Oguta can have river ports. Idah and Baro too.

Ibaka is 2 hours drive to Aba. Obuaku is 30 minutes drive.

love them or hate them, i opine that IPOB agitation is yielding fruit.
we Igbos have traveled across bridges too far to carry our containers.
you go pass Apapa, pass Sagamu, pass Ijebu, pass Ore, pass Benin, pass Agbor, pass Asaba, pass Onitsha...

and prof. VP please don't forget to ask gen. P to restructure (or change) Nigeria before you guys complete your first tenure in office.

When the Niger-Delta brouhaha was hottest and Nigeria was on its knees it was the ripest time for any of its constituent nations to speak up and make demands but the west and others rather than strengthen their position with visionary leadership weakened it by ambivalence to hostility against those who wanted change. It has taken the east again to weaken the country yet there are still calls from largely oppressed people to maintain the status quo.

You can imagine how much further all these regions will have gone if they pressed a dialogue then with solid, visionary demands. But folks felt peace at all costs was the solution to Nigeria bit as a student of engineering I know that most dynamic systems are stable when under tension be it the rope that holds your tent up or the rubber that keeps your tyres inflated.

In political terms it means nations are kept stable and progressive if their constituents are constantly in a state of social tension. This means no one is relaxed taking others for granted. This means everyone has to work equally hard for the integrity of the system. This means the failure of one will lead to the collapse of all. And so this means the quality of materials that form a country has to be high and uniformly applied. Nigeria is no where near this. That is why we cannot succeed in anything meaningful as far as humanity is concerned.

The FG and Osinbajo can only plan and forward their plans to the lawmakers for funding, but it means nothing until funding is approved before anything starts on the ground.

Sadly, lawmakers and the people from the same regions to benefit from these projects are the ones slashing budgets and funding for the projects and their own people especially the ones from SE are so happy and delighted that their own clueless, corrupt and incompetent lawmakers are denying them progress and development just because they hate APC.

It is just some people's portion in life to always reap what they sow.

Mr Attache By Force,

What concerns you? Are Niger Deltans complaining?

This information does not concern you as none of the 5 SE states will ever get a seaport,

Afterall, you are landlocked grin

Illiterate. Read below. Igbo land is not landlocked

Does It Mean That Southeast Nigeria Is Not Landlocked Like We Are Told? by petsam11(m): 2:29pm On Aug 26
Southeast and by extension, Igboland has access to the Sea, Rivers, Water Ways to Atlantic Ocean but some ignorant Nigerians cannot learn the geography and history that is evident and factual on ground in southeast and Nigeria. They love to be ignorant despite facts in their land. What a people with Nigerians and Africans mentality of denial of facts as long as it massages their ego and wishful thinking.

Lets use a simple arithmetic to teach the ignorants in these forums that Igboland is not land locked. Fact one, IkwerreLand/Porharcourt and Porthhacourt seaport was dredged 40 to 50 Miles to sea from the Bonny River to Atlantic Ocean. Onne SeaPort in Ogoni land was dredged 50 to 60 Miles to Sea from Bonny River for Larger ships to Atlantic Ocean. Calabar Seaport is dredged 45 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean. Akwa Ibom Ibaka deep seaport is about 30 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean without dredging and the best seaport location in depth and width in Eastern Nigeria. Then open your dummy eyes and ears again.

PROPOSED 2 (TWO) SEA PORTS IN OBEAKU- NDOKI AND AZUMIRI SEAPORTS IN ABIA STATE.

Obuaku Ndoki Port in Abia State is only 25 nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean from the confluence of Imo River and Azumiri (blue River) in Abia State, which is a large and deep body water of high flowing and rich rivers. Azumiri Blue River in Abia State is also 25-30 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean for a big Seaport and big ships. Many Igbo towns and villages in Imo State, Abia State, Anambra State and Anioma are within 30 minutes to one hour drive to the Sea Atlantic Ocean. That is not land lock you dummies.


7 (SEVEN) SEA PORTS AND POTENTIAL SEAPOPORT UNDERWAY IN EASTERN PARTS OF NIGERIA.

(1)PORTHARCOURT SEAPORT - IN RIVERS STATE ALONG BONNY RIVER IS 45 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN
(2) ONNE SEAPORT - IN RIVERS STATE ALONG BONNY RIVER IS 50 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN
(3) CALABAR SEAPORT- IN CROSS RIVERS STATE IS 45 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN
(4) IBAKA SEAPORT-IN AKWA IBOM STATE IS 30 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN
(5)OBEAKU-NDOKI SEAPORT- IN ABIA STATE IS 25 NAUTICAL MILES TO OCEAN (PROPOSED UNDER PLANNING)
(6) AZUMIRI IN ABIA STATE CONFLUENCE BLUE RIVER IS 30 NAUTICAL MILES TO ATLANTIC OCEAN (PROPOSED AND PLANNING UNDERWAY)
(7) ONITSHA INLAND RIVER PORT IN ANAMBRA STATE UNDER CONSTRUCTION.


Ever since the Abia State Government announced their intention to bring a Sea Port to the state, there have been many questions raised. I reached out to a source at the Government House, Umuahia to obtain clarity. I was told that the proposed location for the seaport is in Obuaku, Ukwa West, LGA. Right in Obuaku, there is a confluence point where the Imo River and the Blue River meet. The Obuaku confluence passes through Ikot Abasi in Akwa Ibom State. In Rivers state for instance, (along Bonny River) we have Portharcourt Seaport and we have the Sea Port located in Onne, Eleme L.G.A. Onne,This is Nigeria’s busiest sea port and ranks as the largest sea port in west Africa. Did you know that while Rivers State (Porharcourt Sea Port) sits 40 nautical miles away from the Atlantic Ocean and Onne Port in River State along Bonny River sits 50 Nautical Miles away from the Atlantic Ocean. Obuaku Blue River and Azumiri Rivers is only 25 nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean? To some, this talk about a sea port in Abia state may sound unrealistic but, it is not far fetched. Even if it does not get realized by the T. A administration, this legacy project will come to fruition in no distant time.


Igboland is not landlocked according to United Nation treaty, International law OF THE Sea and African Union laws. Igboland has many Rivers, Canals, Waterways, Lake and bays in Imo State, Anambra state, Anioma, Asaba and Abia States which flows into the Atlantic Oceans and the Sea and many a distance of 30 minutes drive.
FACTS ON GROUND
Development of a Sea-Port at Obuaku-Ndoki: many Nigerians, even including many enlightened sons and daughters of Nd’igbo, had, out of geographical ignorance, borne the impression that the South-East of Nigeria is land-locked. But being a visionary leader, the truth is now being made manifest that the Blue River/Imo River confluence at Obuaku-Ndoki is only twenty-five nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean. We are thankful that your administration is working committedly to establishing a sea-port at the confluence town of Obuaku.
AN ADDRESS PRESENTED BY THE PEOPLE OF ABIA-SOUTH SENATORIAL ZONE ON THE OCCASION OF A GRAND CIVIC RECEPTION FOR HIS EXCELLENCY, GOVERNOR T. A. ORJI (OCHENDO GLOBAL) AT ABIA STATE POLYTECHNIC, ABA ON 1ST FEBRUARY, 2014.
AS SCRIPTED BY CHIEF (SIR) DON UBANI; KSC, JP (OKWUBUNKA OF ASA)

Chief (Sir) Don Ubani; ksc, JP 11/06/2013
"further inward by thinking of laying a bigger foundation of economy for not only Abia State but the whole of the South-East geo-political zone by formally conceptualizing the establishment of a sea-port at Obeaku-Ndoki, in Ukwa-East Local Government Area.
Embarking on a road map that will ginger his successor to see to the realization of a sea-port in Abia State, would correct the erroneous impression widely held by uninformed Nigerians that the South-East zone of Nigeria is land-locked. This is very far from the truth.The Imo River, which originates from Umuaku in Isuochi of Umunneochi Local Government Area meandered its way up to Obeaku-Ndoki, from where it emptied itself into the Atlantic Ocean. It is very strategic to mention that the distance between Obeaku-Ndoki and the Atlantic Ocean, which commences not far from Igwenga in Ikot Abasi Local Government Area of Akwa-Ibom State, is only twenty-five nautical miles.For the avoidance of doubt, any zone that enjoys a proximity of even thirty nautical miles to a maritime endowment such as the Atlantic Ocean, should not in any way categorize itself as being land-locked. For the benefit of those who do not know, Port-Harcourt wharf is about forty nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean. It was dredged and scooped during the Premiership of Dr. M.I. Okpara during the defunct Eastern Region for ships to berth therein. If Port-Harcourt wharf could be made accessible to ships despite its fourty-nautical-mile distance to the Atlantic Ocean, it justifiably stands to reason that Obeaku-Ndoki Wharf, which is only twenty-five nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean, could be more readily and profitably accessed by ships. Since Nigeria parades a galaxy of consultants in marine engineering, obtaining professional advice in this regards may not be far from reach."

-------------------------------------------------------------
FACTS ON GROUND BY Vincent Erondu
'Without Ikwerre the hinterland Igbos have many access to the sea. Port Harcourt came to prominence as from 1913 because of the development of the sea port and the Eastern Railway line. During the oil Rivers trade and the slave trade era Port Harcourt was not a factor in those trades. The trade route was through Azumini River through Ohambele via Opobo to Bonny (Ubani). At Bonny commodities were loaded and shipped overseas. Another route in fact the ealier route was through Cross River Aro chukwu to Calabar. Aboh, Onitsha and Ugwuta were also important sea routes to Atlantic ocean. Ikwerre is not wanted by the Igbo for any specific thing or need. The issue is matter of historical distortion and revisionism.

Talking about Port Harcourt, Igweocha is a common name for Port Harcourt, this name is a descripton of how the horrizon seems to be touching the ocean from a plain sea shore view. Its ancient name was odinaobu. We also have Igwenga. These names are spelt in various ways depending on the dialect of the writer.

Sadly for you and your ipob kinds, ports in any location doesn't determine economic growth and development, market forces does.

You can build all the ports you want inside your house and your backyard, it means nothing because location, easy access to viable and available market with buying power and disposable income which doesn't exist in the SE and SS.

We heard similar noise and chest beating about Onitsha river port international airport per how they are going to dethrone Lagos as Nigeria's commercial capital with flights, people and goods heading straight to the SE instead of Lagos, but no such thing transpired because of the same factors I listed.

You don't even have any worthwhile investments or future investments to sustain any economic growth and development in the SE and SS because of kidnappings, riots, demonstrations, agitations and general restlessness which drives away investors and investments.

Also, the fact that you are saddled with siddon look and do nothing governors and society co-dependent on the FG to always tie their shoes and wipe their asxss for them compounds your problem.
