LASG is developing the other 2 ports in Lagos in conjunction with the private sector just giving NAP statutory share holding.

Should Lagos state be held responsible for SS and SE Governor ineptitude or visionlessness? or should Lagos stop advancing because your Governors are daft and stupid?

Nigeria is building a new deep-seaport and considering two additional facilities to ease congestion at Apapa seaports, which currently handle about 80 per cent of all shipping traffic in the country.

A new facility is already under construction in the Lekki Free Trade Zone in Lagos through a public-private partnership, while another may be built in the Badagry area of the city, near the border with Benin.



A third project, the Ibom seaport, is under consideration in the oil-rich Niger delta , Nigerian Ports Authority Managing Director, Hadiza Bala-Usman, disclosed in a recent interview with Bloomberg.

The government had in the past year, invested in developing the eastern ports of Warri, Calabar, Onne and Port Harcourt, whose river channels are too narrow to accommodate large vessels, forcing shipping companies to take their vessels to Lagos.

The NPA last year commenced the dredging of Warri port at the cost of $44.861m (N16.150bn).

Bala-Usman has also encouraged flat-bottomed vessels that do not require too much sea depth to berth at the eastern ports and the response has been encouraging as there was an increase in the number of such vessels calling at the Port Harcourt and Calabar ports since last year.

Bloomberg reported that the Apapa and Tin Can Island ports remained the hubs for cargo transiting through Africa’s most populous nation.

But inefficiency and congested roads to the ports mean daily queues of hundreds of trucks. The government wants to focus on improving the nearby roads and other infrastructure to ease the transportation of goods including cars, computers, food and machinery, Bala-Usman told the business newswire.

“We have congestion because 80 per cent of our cargo goes on the road. You must have that seamless evacuation, if not, it’s laughable to think you will not have congestion,” she said.

Shipment delays of almost eight weeks prompted the National Cashew Association of Nigeria to raise the alarm last month as $300m worth of nuts remained stuck in containers on trucks waiting to enter the ports.



Inadequate infrastructure, stifling red tape and corruption at the ports are hurting business, the Nigeria Cashew Exporters Association said.

Similar concerns were voiced by the nation’s cocoa exporters last year after trucks carrying the beans took as long as four weeks to get through the potholed roads to the ports, pushing up haulage costs and putting sales contracts at risk.

The Ministry of Transport is building a new railway to the Lagos ports to speed up the evacuation of cargo, Usman said.

For now, trailer parks are being built to take trucks off the road and barges have been deployed to move cargo on inland waterways. Lagos is Africa’s biggest city, with an estimated population of 22 million people.

Tahhh!! Which East? I know the East like the back of my hand.
It takes you less than 3 hours to drive through Onitcha to the Boundaries between Abia and Rivers. That route cuts across the five Eastern States that made up the tiny underdeveloped Eastern Region.

Start the journey from Niger bridge, pass through Onitcha, Uburu, Mpu, Okpanku, Aka eze, then you get to Okigwe Aba Road, Uturu, then you get to Okigwe township. You continue the Journey through Nunya then you arrive at the AWARD winning ISiala Ngan North (the Cannibal H/Q of the World) then you arrive Aba in about 30 minutes and finally the boundaries between Abia and Rivers.

It will take you less than 3 hours to do that jorney. Where as, it takes an average of 5 hours to to an intra States jorney in most States in other regions. This shows how tinny your underdeveloped Region is.

Bighead9:



Kikikikikikiki, the truth pained this man well.
That is the true state of your tiny underdeveloped Region. I no just get your time, I for upload screenshots of how your Brothers feel about your tiny Region. Directly from the Horses mouth.

Omudia11:
Lol, as usual the only way they can attack a woman is by slut shaming them. It's even worse when it comes from a fellow woman.

But Victoria, no one stopped you from selling yours. Even with her age she is planets ahead of you so keep hating.

cana882:
Omotola should shut up and stop embarrassing herself. How would you juxtapose suit and dred or tattoo?
Celebrity status does not imply loss of morals.

In regards to the size of the East, it is supposed to be the most Developed Region. The infrastructure in Kaduna alone, if transferred to the East (for instance), It will occupy all the available space there and more infrastructure will be left due to none available of space.

Your tiny East is the least developed Region, deal with it.

DeeTweenie:
I wish this can happen in my dear country Nigeria, i for waka naked for 1 week

01mcfadden:


Your stupidity stinks to high heaven. It's beyond repair.

Bighead9:


The East is the least developed Region. Upon the size of the East. Some local government in some parts of this Country are bigger than most states in the East yet, your Governors cannot Develop that tinny Region.
It's a shame really.

Almaiga:
We witness murders, Suicide cases in the East daily. The rate at which bad news comes from that tinny underdeveloped East is alarming.

Another Ritual case is all I see here. A close relative has used this man for Rituals. A millionaire will soon surface in that Family soon.

Buhari is an anarchist, forget all the promotion of fake integrity in the media by Yoruba Muslims
He has allowed Elrufai to decimate Southern Kaduna with his Fulani armed men without calling them to order

Effiongdbest:
Mehn if you are not talking Loinheart of number 1 Queen of Africa Genevieve you are talking nonsense. All the other Afonja movies were picked because if Lagos factor but Lionheart was strictly on merit, no wonder the whole wold is talking Lionheart and not Afonja big head Banky WC and his Afonja unpopular movies that never go anywhere..

Unlimitk:
Two Yoruba's directed movie without running to Netflix and hyping given recognition.

One day, one of our politician will commission cemetery or mortuary.

Hofbrauhaus:
While we hail the boy, lets not forget to heap curses on the people that would have killed this boy without blinking - FULANI herdsmen.

The fulani herdsmen are the most deadly terrorist organisation in Nigeria, second to their brothers BokoHaram.

They have caused us so much pain as a people, yet, because Buhari is one of them, we are expected to look the other way as our people are being killed like animals.
