Chinoyx:
Lagos does not need another port. There is congestion in the city. The Yorubas with the military leaders then worked to close down the Sapele and Warri ports, infact they made it virtually impossible to revive those ports with their sentimental politics. If Nigeria has a major port in Warri, Sapele, Bayelsa, Calabar and Akwa Ibom and they are fully functional this would lead to decongestion of the population of Lagos and it would spread the development across the nation. Not to mention, the ports in the southern part of the country are Freshwater Ports and when ships dock, they don't corrode easily.

Follygunners:
Have they considered the platforms to make the so called 'Port' successfully functional and operational?

Idiko1:


If you were sensible, you should pray the federal government of Nigeria to do same to states other than Lagos.

patriotic007:
Keeping all Nigerian ports in Lagos is satanic and it's the price we have to pay for one Nigeria

ArewaNorth:


This is Amaechi's job, FG in particular!

Putinmyrod:

Stop misinforming yourself, especially on a subject you're ignorant of. The project is private sector driven and the only thing the FG ( NPA) has in the project is an equity interest.

LILTJAY:
export what? Drugs or prostitutes. . or maybe harvested heads and mined skulls Lol

Yinkakolawole:
my hometown is where the port is located, but the government need to widen the old ibeju-lekki road (eleko-folu exp rd) to 8 lane because of the delivering of goods. Dangote refinery projects are using this same road & the road is really bad now, & it is the only exp road that link to the port directly.

See as Lagos is setting their future. Yet one urchin from a failed state will open his gutter of mouth to advise them on how to run their state better.

vickydevoka:
Afonjas and Igbos are they reason I'm still on nairaland. Their trolls n backlashes is nonstop. Always fun

olas24u:


FG as only 5 % share

RichDad1:
Good job by the LASG.

jneutron4000:
God bless Yoruba land

Greenarrow01:


Boss pls do you have idea of cost of 1 acre of land around this axis !

tolue42:


This particular sea port is located at the forefront of the Atlantic, even they're sand filling part of the ocean self.....I'm always here...

Yinkakolawole:
1 acre of land facing the express is now 30m in undeveloped area like apakin village, siriwon & igbekodo village & so on, with gazette & free from government acquisation. In developing area u cant even see a plot that face the exp, i wont lie to you. because most clients are looking for exp land to buy because of the new development coming to our land & they are ready to invest in lands buying.

DubaiLandLord:
Is so risky buying a land around that axis o.

Yinkakolawole:
our people are ready since the government is ready to compesate them, dangote av came here himself to talk about this & the people are happy. Everybody here wants development because we the son of the soil will benefit more it, including our coming generation to generation.

litaninja:
Lagos state does not have the capacity for these things and its absolutely unnecessary. Move infrastructure and develop OTHER PARTS OF NIGERIA.

Dshocker:
Port that was supposed to have been built somewhere around Badagry to avoid congestion along lekki-Epe road

lereinter:


The igr will shared amongst all the states of the federation

Only that oluomo will have his boys at all road end collecting illegal money for his children in usa

Kingcalls:
The reason y they dont want Biafra...the reason y they hv decided to become slaves to their master .... if biafra activates... their city and ports will become a ghost town

I'm not ignorant of most things I write here.
Most of Nigerian projects like roads, Ports, AKK pipeline, oil and gas, rail lines and power sector are PPP and FG pay little percentage in the projects and this doesn't mean they are not the one who come up with the idea that shape the road map of the projects because we don't have the money to fund all the projects.
So, in modern system of Govt all over the world including Nigeria this is how projects are being financed!
