The federal government is set to build a new Sea Port, estimated to cost $800 million in Pessu area of Warri in Delta state.

Minister of Transportation, Rt Hon Rotimi Amaechi disclosed this Thursday, at the Petroleum Training Institute Conference Centre, in Uvwie council area of Delta state.



Amaechi who was in company of the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr Festus Keyamo (SAN) and Director-General, National Directorate of Employment, Dr. Nasiru Ladan Argungu tasked youths of the area to support the forthcoming project.

The trio were in the state to present starter packs, micro enterprise enhancement loans and resettlement packages to 1,700 women and youths under the National Directorate of Employment empowerment programme.

While urging youths to ensure the project goes on smoothly when it takes off Amaechi revealed further that a similar Sea Port will be built in Bonny, Bonny local government area of Rivers state

“We are building a brand new Sea Port in Pessu. It will cost 800 million dollars. When you stop them from working you are losing such a huge investment where the entire community can be contractors, some can supply sand.

“There is also the Bonny sea Port that is coming. The best thing to do is allow the development. Imagine the companies that have left Warri, let the Sea Port project go on smoothly,” the minister appealed.



On his part, the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr. Keyamo reassured of the federal government’s commitment to lift millions of Nigerians out of poverty.

He added that with what is being given in this early stage of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, Deltans should expect more, in terms of empowerment, to come in the next few years.

Some items given to the beneficiaries drawn from the 25 LGAs in the state include sewing machines, knitting machines, welding machines and cash sums.

They should not.
Creating a seaport in Warri is reawakening the restiveness in that region.

A seaport will fester the growth of Piracy on the Niger Delta Waterways.
The FG should use that money to build amusement parks instead.

The will in this era is tooooo much.

Okay

Very good.

Warri youth should let this project take place.

I hope this isn't just a mere talk..

I am tired of all these "TO" statements.

When will Buhari start commissioning projects?

Ok

lets see

Switruth:

For Warri?

Amaechi cool down n settle boys abeg

Whooping 240billion naira which will involve borrowing.

Na Lagos state una wan renovate?

We will

We will

We will

We will


Audio seaport

Audio FG

Long overdue.

Not until work is started......this remains audio seaport.

I hope the youths of the area will not sabotage the effort of F.G in building the seaport, just like how the Southeast people have been sabotaging construction of roads in their regions by demanding for billions of Naira from contractors.

Warri people should see the long time effects rather than the short time effects, another seaport in Warri will decongest Lagos ports and as such, it'll improve IGR in Delta State.

let us all be wise, and say No to ethnic bigotry.

Lol, yahoo government

About 100 million of that money will go to thugs and militants for permission to build a port that would benefit their communities.

Ameachi as been behind the scene lately hope all is well

Another WILL

Keep doing ur 30k BMC job.

There's a seaport in warri, calabar, Rivers, they should be reactivated fully, there's no need for promising us an audio seaport

So we have $800 million dollars but we don't have a refinery Instead of building this seaport that is loudly unnecessary, just build a new refinery in Warri let it refine all the derivatives and also export which will bring in billions of dollars yearly at the end of its completion. Simple sturv

Warri even has a seaport already

Buhari amaka

The day Niger Deltants will open their eyes, the bush meat will capture the hunter. Imagine illegal refinery in Kano and no burning of any vehicle or product. Go to Otu Jeremi road through Ughelli and see different cars and Keke burnt just because they were used to transport locally refined products.
Yet the modular refinery which Osibanjo promised after over two years remain dreams. The easiest way to keep people continually colonized is through keeping them poor, have a person from there to occupy a position that pays him well, always use this same person to reach them, and finally allowing little crumbs to fall to the colonized at strategic times, without forgetting constantly promising them what has been concluded that they can never receive. Where are the railway and the nodular refinery.
