That is not true if the proceeds are shared according to number of states and local governments,do the mathematics,you are tryin to write about the 13% dereivation but it cost more to build infastructures in does regions that were left and needed to do catch up .In the past during the regonal system ,you get 45% of thr proceeds from your wealth to develop your land.

You dont know what you're talking about. You can clearly see both projects listed in ICRC concessions. FG owns 20%, State owns 20%, other 60% to private sector.
The project is a 45-year concession awarded by the Nigerian Ports Authority, on a build, own, operate, and transfer (BOOT) model. Further rationale for the Lekki Port capacity: 1. Container demand growing at 1.9 x GDP growth over the past two decades @ CAGR of 13% +. 2. Lagos accounts for 90% of the container throughput in Nigeria. 3. Capacity constraints at Lagos Port due to: i. limitation of draught, storage area, and equipment; ii. expansion and road access limitation; and iii. potential safety hazards. 4. Lekki Port will help to bridge the projected demand-capacity gap by: i. accommodating larger vessels; ii. optimized storage area and ease of expansion; iii. modern equipment; and iv. facilitatation of relocation of tank farms.

Anna Okon with agency report

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.

JasonScoolari:
Ayomide Olaribigbe is definitely an Igbo name. My Ngwà and Nsukka brothers can bear me witness.
The Omoluabi is a philosophical and cultural concept that's native to the Yoruba people. It's used to describe a person of good character. The omoluabi concept signifies courage, hard work, humility and respect.[1] An omoluabi is a person of honor who believes in hard work, respects the rights of others, and gives to the community in deeds and in action. Above all, an omoluabi is a person of integrity.[2]

The Omoluabi concept is an adjectival Yoruba phrase, which has the words - "Omo + ti + Olu-iwa + bi" as its components. Literally translated and taken separately, omo means 'child', ti means 'that or which', Olu-iwa means the chief or master of Iwa (character), bi means 'born'. When combined, Omoluabi translates as "the baby begotten by the chief of iwa". Such a child is thought of as a paragon of excellence in character.[3]

An omoluabi demonstrates and exhibits the inherent virtue and value of Iwapele. Iwapele is ultimately the basis of moral conduct in Yoruba culture and a core defining attribute of an omoluabi. The most fundamental of these principles demonstrated by an omoluabi are;[4]

Oro Siso (Spoken word, the Yoruba accord great respect for intelligent and expert use of language)
Iteriba (Respect)
Inu Rere (Good will, Having a good mind towards others)
Otito (Truth)
Iwa (Character)
Akinkanju (Bravery)
Ise (Hardwork)
Opolo Pipe (Intelligence)
An individual can be termed an omoluabi irrespective of the religion the person adheres to. Consequently, some of the characteristics and traits of an omoluabi are considered virtues in many religions, for example, humility, truth and honesty are Christian and Muslim virtues.
He his British trained and not an omoluabi.
