Bola Ahmed Tinubu vision came to reality


God bless Incoming President Bola Ahmed Tinubu

Good, that's what you get when a state is administered by visionary leader with a working blueprint and like minds for continuity

Golan007:


This is a Lagos state project sir.

You don't even know what you are saying.

helinues:


Perhaps you would have hailed the guy if he said Nigeria wont be great

Some of you people self with your reasoning

Hellanus, keep quiet!

Evolutionlove:


Na dem, Uselvss People. Always deceiving the gullible masses. Shiithole great again my feet..

You know you could have easily passed your message easily without being insultive and it will still make sense.

BloomingDale:

You want to "taketh by force"? I sorry for you.

Don't die of envy yet o because there's more success to come and I want you to count until you get tired and shout "uncountable" out of frustration.

After Lagos, Ogun is coming up. Haven't you noticed? Abiodun already signed MOU for Ogun free trade zone and cargo port like Lagos governors have been doing since 1999. This is to tell you that the project like many others in the South west is the brain child of our governors, not the Federal government.

Instead of you to chastise your governors so they can sit up each time news like this come, out of jealousy, you wil be subtly inciting others against the Yorubas.

Another wonderful Asiwaju's achievement....


God Bless the great Jagaban, the father of development in Nigeria, the great visionary.

Instead of opening up the seaport in other states, they are still concentrating everything in Lagos.

Besides we need Lekki Airport more than we need Lekki Seaport.

Moving from Lekki axis to MMIA to catch your flight is the greatest nightmare any Lekki dweller can face.

Shit can sometimes last from 4-5 hours.

I remember somebody who dropped off someone traveling to London at Ikeja Airport and set back to return to Lekki. He was still in traffic around Ozumba Mbadiwe when the person he dropped off called him that he’s already in London. Madness!

It is a private project packaged by LASG with FG approval. The FG has to approve all ports but it is not putting in a kobo. It is a private sector enterprise

PressMyButton:

When people ask about the achievements of Tinubu in Lagos, here is the result of the vision he conceptualized as far back as his tenure as Governor of Lagos State. Fortunately, successive Governors keyed into his vision and the result is the mordern Lagos that attracts the biggest foreign direct investment in Africa.

Warri, Calabar, PH , Akwa ibom, all are oil rich states with Governors at the helm of affairs. The question is, what have they been doing with the billions of naira of 13% crude oil derivation that greased their pockets every month?
Next time you see any developmental infrastructures in Lagos, you don't have to hate. All you have to do is to tramsfer your frustrations on your Governors, pull them by their ears and drag them to Lagos to learn the template of Asiwaju Jagaban.

What does Tinubu have to do with a seaport

Lekki Deepsea to rescue
Worried by the gradual loss of the maritime hub status and revenue, due to the inadequacies of seaports in the country, the Federal Government and Lekki Port LFTZ Enterprise Limited signed a 45- year concession to develop a deep sea/multipurpose port in Lagos State.

With a draught level of 16.5 metres, Quay wall of 1, 523 metres and a turning circle of 600 meters, Lekki port is projected to be one of the most modern deep seaports in West Africa, which will serve as a vast support to the burgeoning commercial operation across Nigeria and repositioning the country as the maritime hub of the region.

The Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, had expressed confidence that the commencement of operation of the port would strengthen the country’s maritime sector to meet the ever-growing demands for goods transported by sea.

Also, the Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, during a recent tour of the port, said when completed the port would make Nigeria regain the maritime business that it lost to ports in Togo, Cote d’Ivoire and Ghana.

According to the minister, it would also be a big boost for the country in its quest to take advantage of the implementation of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA).

The minister also estimated that over $201 billion in taxes, royalties and duties would be generated for the government as well as create 169,972 jobs when the port commences operations in the fourth quarter of 2022.

He said the aggregate economic impact of the port, put at $361 billion in 45 years, would be over 200 times the cost of building the port.

He added that the direct and induced business revenue impact of the port is estimated at $158 billion in addition to a qualitative impact on the manufacturing, trade and commercial services sector.

“No port in Nigeria currently has this. The excellent equipment is why this port can do 18,000 twenty-foot equivalent unit (teu), which is more than four times the number that can currently be handled by our other ports,” he stated.

He said with regulatory agencies, which include, the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Nigerian Police Force (NPF), National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), Department of State Security (DSS), Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Nigerian Immigration Service (NIS), Port Health Services (PHS), Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), the federal government’s ease of doing business would be achieved in the port.

On the readiness of Lekki port to help Nigeria attain its regional maritime hub agenda, the Architect of the project, Matthew Oloyede, explained that with the automated infrastructures, it will accommodate the largest and post-Panamax vessels.


“Power plant generation is 16 megawatts. We will have an efficient port where all operations are automated. We are competing with other neighbouring ports in terms of automation. Containers would pass through our scanners and not the physical examination process. This reduces the clearing time as well.

Also, the Managing Director, Lekki Deep Sea Port, Du Ruogang, assured that the port would change the economic landscape of Nigeria and West Africa at large with its largest terminal capacity.

He said the operators will have a terminal operating system that will be more integrated, not only to drive the functionality of the port but e-commerce as well.

Ruogang further said the competitive edge of the port is the ability to accept larger vessels and discharge ships twice as fast, thereby reducing the overall port stay of a vessel as well as the costs for importers and exporters minimally, while savings are handed to the consumers.

Nothing Nigeria here. Stop deceiving the people. Say Yoruba.

Which Yoruba, can Yoruba be great in isolation?

uniquelyspecial:
So childish of him. So mature if you.
Kudos!

Thanks man.
The goal is to be at peace with everyone, we all want to see a better Nigeria.

ufotunang:
Everything is centralized on Lagos other sea ports are not working effectively.. that is why the population of Lagos is too much because every national economic activities is centralized in Lagos

The Lekki deep seaport is a Lagos State Government project therefore the question of centralization does not arise. Tell other state governors to sit up and stop going cap in hand to beg FG for allocations on a monthly basis. The current Ogun state governor is among the foolish governors who ought to take advantage of his state's close proximity to Lagos State.

BloomingDale:


Very good. Other regions must sit up too. They should not be deceived by Lagos. If we go our separate ways, other regions will be lagging behind. Other regions must also sit up to attract foreign investors into their region. They must not be deceived by the Yorubas using Lagos to attract all the foreign investments to their region.

those investment exists because Lagos has in existence been a neutral zone for all tribes. The very moment it chooses one out of the other, it would seize to exist.

TONY042:
Naija will be great again.

When was it ever great? DOnt tell me it was during your papa dem time because you know they are even older than “Nigg Area”

Benwallt:

Be deceiving your self. Don’t go and develop your region. Be waiting for Lagos to snap up everything.

nisai:
Thank you for the explanation but this ain't just about this thread, sir. It goes way back through to other threads created celebrating Nigerian success that happened through Yoruba people or land.

Drop the links of those threads

I blame NdiIgbo and Ndi Niger Delta for this monopoly.

Jonathan real messed up. Him no try at all for Niger Delta

AwkaFinest:



Shattaap there. When we live in a monotonous country where everything is built in Lagos. FG built this port with Nigeria's money. This has nothing to do with Lagos government.

If FG decides to move all these facilities to other states the attractiveness of Lagos will reduce. Why didn't they go and build the port in say Akwa Ibom? Yet the state government is doing this by itself since fg has decided to put everything in Lagos.

https://www.nairaland.com/4144976/lagos-1898before-nigeria-not-oil
FG did not built it with Nigeria's money
This is a private sector enterprise with ZERO KOBO from the FG
The other ports in Lagos have been there before 1914 study the link
The Port has been contributing thousands of pounds before 1914 when Nigeria was created

Many of you suffer this delusion that Lagos was established with FG money . Study the Colonial reports I attach https://www.nairaland.com/4144976/lagos-1898before-nigeria-not-oil you will discover that Lagos has ALWAY contributed MORE than it received from Nigeria for over 130 years

Shildren of hate would like to relocate it to Anambra or they'll say they developed it

Tiv people sef get sense pass una. Have you ever seen a Hausa or Middle Beltan bragging about the development strides in Abuja Have you seen them try to claim credit for it?? You people are so backward.
