You have started again. When you're hit with facts now, you'll start talking about misinterpretation.
Anything on the exclusive list is under the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal govt.
Only NPA has the authority to build and operate ports in Nigeria.
NPA in return concessioned the deep seaport to the private company. I hope you know what concession means before you start saying anyone can build a port. Ignorance.
Also note that the free trade zone where the port is being built also belongs to the FG. So I don't know where you got the idea that Lagos acquired the land for the port
You are arguing foolishly

The exclusive list is a legislative list Its purpose is to separate the functions of the NATIONAL ASSEMBLY from the State Houses of Assembly period
It clarifies who can MAKE LAWS about the specific issue. That is all there is to it.
The FG can make laws about items on the exclusive list and delegate or cede powers to state governments or other entities
Your claim that only NPA can build and operates ports need substantiation. It is wrong
The NPA can licence a port to be built by the private sector that has nothing to do with exclusive list ; totally separate issue
This particular port is not being built by NPA but by Tolaram and it is not a concession
Arguing about ideas is OK but arguing over facts is stupid when they can be easily verified
You do not know and do not know that you do not know and want to pretend you know it all

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!
Wailer no one will invest their resources in the Terrorists Dominated Region. even ordinary police stations ,INECs offices and other government Infrastructures were attacked and spoilt in a particular region . Do you expect any investor to invest his money in that type of backwards Region or state? Everybody will get result of what they do or invested in.

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.
Very bigggg fooooll spotted

Wait let me ask, what's your qualification?

It is neither a LASG nor FG project in terms of funding
The ownership of the project is over 50% China using the instrumentality of CHEC

Lagos state has equity based on the land it provided and the FG has equal equity with LASG
The concept is a LASG concept presumably

Your problem is semi-literacy. Basic political science teaches that who makes laws controls that particular aspect of the law. You say exclusive list is on the legislative list. May I ask who the national assembly makes laws for. Does NASS make laws for the states? If NASS makes a law, who enforces it? FG or state?
Every other thing you have written about FG delegating its powers does not remove from the fact that FG has exclusive powers over the subject. This is just like you saying since the FG has conceded some road repairs to private companies under the presidential Road Rehabilitation initiative, it has automatically transferred ownership of the roads to the companies that are doing the repairs. Or that since the FG leased oil blocks to some individuals, automatically the FG no longer owns the oil blocks. That's a statement steeped deep in ignorance.
To all intents and purposes, the FTZA and the seaport belong to the FG. It is a concession to a private company. If there company misbehaves, they get kicked out and FG takes over. Kapich?

The Free Trade Zone does not belong to the FG
Land is vested in State Governments . So when government needs to acquire land compulsorily and give compensation that is the function of state governments . That is what happened with the port and that Land was given in exchange for equity in the port

But they have no problem handing over the good things those ones did to their favorite politicians.

What does concession mean? Is that the bone of contention here ? The vone of contention is that the FG is funding the port that is not true

The company id funding it 100% and the FG is not putting in ONE KOBO as you ignorantly claimed so do not try to change the subject
I am not interested in screenshots without a source
In this kind of arrangement concession simply means that the company, a foreign company, cannot OWN a port in Nigeria for ever, that is ia sovreign issue. I was discussing the business issue the FG is not putting in one kobo and is only exerting territoriality because of the constitution as it is but the conceiving of the port happened in LASG and also the acquisition of the site and settlement of the host community under Land Use decree is LASG
In this particular deal the FG is a rent taker , a parasite, that has an equal share with the LASG because the constitution gives it the power to veto the deal other than that the FG brought NOTHING to the table NOT ONE KOBO as yoy ignorantly claim so do not hide behind "concession" to obscure that. Concession is a Legal contract to clarify sovereignty over the land and its strategic nature. In Future the land belongs to LASG and if as we hope we get a resource control constitution the FG share will be diluted because it brought NOTHING to the table other than constitutional power to give licence. If that power was local then the FG would not be involved

Blind people usually have a heightened sense of hearing; but the worst form of blindness is the type where the individual is deaf and blind. Your case unfortunately is irredeemable.

The Lekki deep seaport is a project conceptualised and initiated by the LASG. Whether they bring in investors from far and wide to see the project through, or whether the FG through NPA gets to eventually manage the port is inconsequential; someone owns the project and that someone is the LASG.

I see you talking about 'Exclusive List' as if you even know what it means. Airports are also under the exclusive list and airport operations are managed by FG agencies like FAAN, NCAA, NAHCO etc; but you'd simply be spewing blind ignorance if you go to the airports at Umuleri or Asaba or Uyo and claim those airports arent state government projects.

I'm not even sure why anyone would want to dispute or argue over this; probably driven by some silly tribal or political sentiments.

There's no point denying what is obvious. We all know the history of the industrial estates built by Obafemi Awolowo from Apapa to Ikeja and other places across the western region. And we all acknowledge his vision.
Why are people trying to twist what we all know to be true. Did Lekki FTZ started itself? If not, who did?

I certainly am not shouting Tinubu and I have challenged some of those who are on ths thread
BUT

Where do you get this nonsense that it was birthed and conceptualized by a PDP government?

Have you got a shred of evidence for this
Conceptulization means PEOPLE

Give us one PDP name involeved in conceptualization? That is not true

This project is being brought to fruition because of the work of successor LASGs to Tinubu ie Fashola etc
Tinubu did not enjoy a good relationship with Obasanjo and there was not much collaboration between the FG and LASG .
Ultimately this is an investor decision. The investor believes they will get their money back here and not in Ibeno . Who is the investor?

So this fiction of PDP government conceiving this is a stupid joke
PDP government in Abuja? Why did they not conceive anything in the SS?

Nigeria can be great but our leaders are not bold enough to do what is necessary. What is needed is the country to be restructured into a proper federation where each unit will have greater power over the development of their region.

And that post/screenshot proves that?
Not really People who work in the NPA ,professionals have spouted many visions for decades. Because you see Tinubu say in in 2006 does not mean he was the first. There are many smart people whose visions die inside them


Your story is another Mungo Park discovered the Niger story

I know how Tinubu operates and I admire some of it . Tinubu gave room for creative ideas to flourish but it is dishonest to say they were his ideas . Tinubu is one politician that pays or sponsor thinktanks to produce ideas.
Professionals in many industries have bright ideas but keep quiet because they are not encouraged in Nigeria
It is petty to take credit for this and even dishonest
Who took credit for building UNILAG? Kainji Dam?
Did you ever hear Obasanjo take credit for the National Theatre or Lagos -Ibadan motorway or PH -Aba Enugu expressway/ He built them
Babangida mostly built Abuja and half of 3rd Mainland bridge . I never heard him praised for that
