the Lekki sea port on the 1st of July received it first cargo ship after it inception about 13 years ago and over 4 years of construction.
this is a big win for Nigeria and it economy.

3 gigantic Quar cranes and 10 rubber tire gantry cranes were delivered to the Lekki port from ZPMC, china.
These cranes are by far the most sophisticated and most modern in the entire west African region as they are designed to be operated in sync with other port facilities via automation.

the Lekki port will not also serve as the first deep sea port in Nigeria which is designed to alleviate the extreme congestion at the lagos port and attract other large cargo ship that normally berth at neighboring countries because of the poor state of Nigeria port infrastructure, It will also serve as the first and only smart port in the whole west african region.

It will also attract massive investment in the already developing Lekki free trade zone as manufacturers can quickly come settle close to the port facilities and will not have to go through the hardship of evacuating containers from the apapa port and moving it through bad roads which is very daunting. the presence of a deep sea port literally at their backyard solves many of the problems of doing business in Nigeria.

the port will commence full operation in september, 2022

behold the Lekki deep sea port

Welcomed development. Tolaram group will decongest Apapa.

Nice one from Lagos

The siting of the port, Lekki FTZ and Eko Atlantic is brilliant. Seems Apapa will only be handling importation while this port will deal with exportation. Dangote refinery will be able to export refined petroleum easily so also other companies sited there .
For Dangote to key into this tells you how much he believes the State government yet the social media youths without foresight keeps denigrating the achievements of Lagos shows the youths are not been realistic . If we are being honest with ourselves in Nigeria let's support Tinubu vote Tinubu for president. The Tinubu factor and legacies in Lagos alone is behind the progress of the state , if he can do this at the states level why not at the federal level. Investors believe in him more than any other candidates that will rather save or maintain status quo. I think it's time the youths rethink and choose proven and real developments rather than subjecting to social media trend.

Sometimes I wonder if these other states have governors governing them. Before you know, they'll start blaming Bubu and Tinubu for their calamities.

Lagos is not your mate.

Kudos to Sanwochukwu Olumba

Congratulations to Oduduwa, I hope those flat head developer will not Claim it tomorrow.

Yoruba Nation should come now, chase all those Hausas and Igbos out Now, They don't even like us, don't wait for things to get worse.

Creat our Nation, and concentrate on ourselves!!!

We are surrounded by enemies, and we can see they are the ones suffering, they are drawing us back, and we still accommodate them, chase them out nowwww.

The easterners say they will rather vote a northerner, accused us of disrupting voters registration on our land, where we accommodate them, northerners would rather vote themselves, and we accommodated them to the extent they move with cows into our farm, and will kill us if anything happens to a single cow, why are we still cohabiting with these people?

This is a very big win for Lagos, kudos to all its governors starting from asiwaju to the present sanwo olu, making policies that favors the state both presently and future
I just hope no tribe come here and show hate


Last last e go reach everybody turn
Just work hard and don't envy

Reason they wouldn't want CRS's or any other state especially south-south/south west to have a deep sea port cuz of the fear of loosing business men from those areas......but then business moguls will always have their doings

No one is stopping Cross River from doing same and attracting investment through PPP.

You guys will just continue fighting a non-existent enemy and remain stagnant as a state.
