Lagos Commonwealth is used to feed your rural enclave. Lagos contributes trillions of Naira in revenue that accrue mostly from Import duty, company tax and VAT into the Nation's purse yearly. How much is Lagos given in return as Federal allocation? 200 billion naira or less. Lagos is shortchanged my friend. Lagos builds Nigeria's Commonwealth, not the other way round.

Buhari incharge of Lagos, Now? what's Tinubu doing?

What it was built for is not important.


The Port currently receives vessels but most of them are filled with oil field equipment.

All they have to do is open up the ports, clear out the waterways, dredge it if needed and give the state some degree of control on the port.. If we drop import duty in Rivers State Port to be lower than Apapa and Tincan, omo vessels will start entering the port.

See, the Customs gusy for Port Harcourt port are like vultures, if you dare import anything into that port, they will pounce on you and suck you dry before your goods can come out of the ports because no be everyday dem dey see ship. But the moment incentives can be put in place to encourage importers to use the port, trust me, vessels will divert.[/b]


For example, it makes no sense for a product heading to the north to be imported into Lagos when Calabar port is there.

Ok, never knew GEJ led FG later guaranteed the loan for LASG, but I knew that the Nairaland APC Yoruba crew raised a big dust then, when GEJ refused to initially approve the loan.

Either way, it goes to show how dependent Lagos is on Nigeria as an entity.

After this, some lazy Igbos will take credit for Yoruba mans hardwork.

You don't know to what say just keep quiet!!! An average yoruba man loves to party compared to Igbo men who are hardworking and industrious!

In your warped mind it is Lagos state that built and maintains the ports.

It is Lagos state that oversees import duties?

Nigerian youths are really ignorant.

Was Lagos state aligned with the centre when Jonathan approved $1 billion World Bank loan for this same project?
Was it

“It took us four and half years to get approval for the project. It took us another four years to get them to discuss the technicality of the project with us.
