It is no longer news that Lagos Seaport will soon be decongested and the East will be the next destination for Port activities. With 60% of imports from Lagos Seaport finding it's way to Onistha, it is no doubt that the commencement of shipping of goods to Eastern ports is a welcome development.

Here are some of the ways the Eastern Region will benefit from this move.

Reduction in the rate of Rapid migration to Lagos of people from the region: The rate at which people move to Lagos and Ogun State will reduce drastically as many people will love to stay back in the East.

There will be creation of Jobs: More jobs will be created for people from the Eastern Region and Nigeria as a whole.

Many Companies will relocate to East from Lagos and other part of the Country: Many Company will prefer to Establish their presence in the East than Lagos because many people will pay more attention to Eastern ports than Lagos port in the nearest future. Take for instance many Clearing agents may relocate their Business to East.

Development will hit the Region in Geometric progression: If the region can develop on its own without any City there been a Federal Capital and lack of Functional Seaport unlike Lagos. It shows that with the presence of Seaport in the region, the Development that will hit the region will be unbelievable.

Anambra and Lagos may rub shoulder in terms of Infastructures and Revenue generation. Just inagine the volume of economic activities that will hit Onitsha.

Appreciation in Real Estate Properties: If you are wise and an Investor with foresight, now is the right time to Invest in the Eastern part of the Country. Once huge economic activities hit the region, the value of Lands and other Real Estate properties will appreciate.

Yes Nobody is saying that it is not functioning but shipping Companies are now about to start patronising the port in a commercial scale just like they do in Lagos.

The events of last week have just settled the ignorant argument on weather South East is landlocked.
A reasonable country would have promoted the Eastern ports to boost the economy down east, but no, they keep given useless reasons like shallow channel and all Other fake fallacies to intentionally frustrate the Ndi igbo.
Its already too late for them to reverse their stvpidity, we want that our land locked Biafra, we want out short and simple.

Just curious...is it onne port you are referring to when you said eastern seaport? I was confused cos I know eastern states to be landlocked....or river ports to be built?

This is one of the most useless post I have ever seen in this forum.
Why are you counting your chicken when the eggs are not yet hatched. This is one stupid characters of the Igbos, In your mind of minds, you will think you have made a post abi?
Better go home and think twice.

One thing a lot of folks don't know is that south east is not landlocked because of no access to the sea , of course there are possible route to the sea in anambra, imo amd abia , south east is landlocked because there is no seaport

Maersk , PIL, (both Singaporean companies), China shipping etc all have offices in PHC. There has been shipping activities in Onne before now. Stop displaying your ignorance.

And FYI, we are all tired of the overpopulation in Lagos, whatever that will depopulate that state is fine, except pandemics or war.

Yes it is a very Useless post bevause it does not glorify Lagos or South West. Yes it is a useless post because we are not talking about how Lagos can expand while the Eastern ports are abandoned. It is a useless post because You know that one of the things that is keeping Igbos in Lagos is the Seaport.

Read my comment again. I said in commercial scale, hope you saw the news of berthing of the largest Cargo in Nigeria. That is what I mean when I say in commercial scale.

The post is useless as your points. Why not allow the policy or the decision, to effectively take place, before rushing to the platform to validate the benefits?
If it is scuttled tomorrow, you will still be the ones that will cry blue murder.

They are talking about moving cargos to Onitsha by rail not ship. Lol

How is it cheaper? You mean sea freight or logistics?? Vessels berth regularly at Onne, so don't mention logistics, Onne is not a yesterday port o. Most vessels that berth in Lagos, gets to Onne, Lome, etc, and most West African ports.

oga there was no direct line from Asia or Europe to onne ...ships would have to reach Lagos the move to onne

if u are not into shipping keep shut ...onne started real operation this year ...before now it was only used for heavy duty oil equipment

Berthing of the largest (container) cargo vessel in Nigeria doesn't mean there hasn't been "commercial" activities; whatever that means! It means the sea is deep enough to accommodate larger vessels. Dredging was done on the already existing port, that's all. You need to understand vessels activities and how vessels are nominated by shipping lines. That particular vessel may not get to west Africa coast again, I will tell you the reason in the evening when I am back from my meeting. Provided you ask though.

Don't get abusive dear, I have people older than you as staff. Vessels don't have a definite port as destination. They service a coastal area. Get education before politics.

Dear, the picture below is the activities of KOTA SABAS. Another vessel owned by Singaporean coy. Check out the activities of the vessels. Check the Onne and Lagos ETA and ETD. Same vessel serviced the both ports based on discharged port requested by clients.

Ports activities (airports and seaports) are market driven. Not by tribe or because 4 people share a container to bring him battered metals (spare parts). Get education before politics!

I am out of here

@ op.

Calabar to Warri is called Eastern ports.

Its the geographical location. South East is mere political name bacause the Igbos dominated Eastern Nigeria hence they are categorized as South. East.

The main eastern Nigeria is Cross River and Akwa Ibom

Bros because this ships had to reach Lagos first made them expensive ...ships are not built for short tribe ...that's why now it's cheaper

I don't know how else to explain to you ...it's like renting a dangote truck from one street to the next it's not economical at all
