Go back and read your last epistle. You are the one who started the name calling. And who are you giving 4 weeks? To do what? You like digressing, o! This is the 3rd time you have been asked to name the 10 ports, one after the other. You cannot. Yet, you are here making noise. Chai!

His boys will be chasing the train coaches and hanging on the platform asking for "Owo mi da" N500 per coach. If you no pay, they signal their colleagues about 5km ahead that the train "driver" no gree drop o...

Then they will just throw iron rods, sticks and even Yoruba stew all over the tracks and BOOM...the "defaulting train" will derail and topple over. Then you will see "railroad-gridlock" and govt will begin to think of another way to tackle it!

No be Lagos?

Beginning from today (Tuesday) containers and oil tankers would start moving goods from Lagos ports through the newly acquired Railway wagons to the north.

The goods would move to the dry port in Kaduna in the North.

The transport minister Rotimi Amaechi had ordered some wagons for the Lagos-Ibadan railway for the purpose.

This measure was designed to ease traffic and gridlocks caused by heavy-duty vehicles from Lagos and roads.

The move to curb the perennial traffic jam in Apapa axis, the Nigeria Railway Corporation resolved to deploy the eighteen newly imported wagons for haulage from Apapa seaport.

The Managing Director, Nigeria Railway Corporation, NRC, Engineer Fidet Okhiria, disclosed that the newly acquired 18 wagons are to boost the inland container dry port business by moving cargos from Apapa seaport to dry ports in Kaduna and other states.

The NRC has the capacity to evacuate 20 footer and 40 footer containers from Apapa port to, Ijoko and Abeokuta, both in Ogun state and Omi-Adio railway depots, in Oyo state, for onward transfer by parked trucks.

The trucks would evacuate the containers by road to their various destinations which most often is either the inland dry port in Kaduna or Kano.

The bluk of businesses that needs the goods are in the south. We have over 8 ports in the south that applications has been sent to government year in year out. They declined it. Sending goods meant for the industries in the south first to the north before it returns to the south has implications. Multiple haulage will push up the cost of production and ultimately the cost of products. Why they say its for Port decongestion its not purely true cause of it were they would start from diverting goods from congested ports to already established ports with low traffic in the southern region.

By given ports in the south heavy traffic means industries would have to be moved closer to the ports I. E from Kaduna, kano, Lagos, Ogun down inwards and spread across the southern belt which is what they're controlling.

People who know things should talk.

My dear. If you need tutor's hip you have to enrol seeing that blacks hate to read. My brain is hot. I'm off to ashewo beer parlour to chill.

Have a pleasant day.

rkennyking:
man you are so huge a liar . you can't back up your useless fact with reference that shows that you never have anything to say in the first place. Now listen you lots that come up with fake news just to make the country appear bad we are now well aware of your skill and we we getting tired of it already

rkennyking:
dont get me angry pls. This your submission is so daft , so the whole north don't have a use of port right ?? The world standard for landlocked places is dry port. The government is trying to make sure we can get shipment meant for North to the new port. Also its no news to anybody that port in the south aside from Lagos Oceania ports have issue of of size. No ship wants to use a narrow water ways. Fine we have embarked on dredging which is not even economical . what else do you want

Moving items meant for Onitsha and Benin to Dry Ports in Kaduna, meanwhile the Ports in Warri, Sapele, Onne, Calabar in Amaechis region of South South are experiencing very low traffic.
I tire for this country

frowland:


I don't need to take any vail off to see that you are not saying anything meaningful.
There is an already old gauge lines, working. So as a temporary measure to decongest the port what should you do? Build a new narrow guage to the east?
If the only option I have currently is to use the existing one, why not?
Have you seen Dangote offload on Teusdays? No you have not.
If you do, you will have an idea.
Have you seen lorries along okene road? You compare that to the ones going to SE?
You think its only we Igbos that offload? People offload one full ship for themselves alone and most of them are northerners.
