Will this decongest Lagos?!?

Open ports in the SS and SE and let existing ones operate at full capacity...


Idiots
How many times will you be told that the federal government does not "open ports", they only grant licences for its operation and it is the responsibility state governors to "open those ports" by getting investors. Hope u now get why this is celebrated?

Large chunk of the revenue that will be generated from this project will go into Tinubu personal pocket No doubt

Tinubu is not a true son of the soil of Lagos but has succeded in putting Lagos inside his pocket ..
Just look at how much Tinubu makes from Lekki Toll gate and how much is going into his personal pocket

Late Gani fawehinmi was right about Tinubu being a criminal


You are a big mumu. Even if it is true that money from this will go into Tinubu's pockets (you and your minions have no proof whatsoever that Lagos money is entering Tinubu's pockets), isn't it still a good thing? If you are earning 10k monthly, and I show you means to earn 10 million monthly and I say you must pay me 2 million from that cash monthly, you no go happy? You people will open your mouths and say nonsense. Obi that invested state money in a company that he has interest in nko, no be criminal for you abi. Nonsense and ingredients

When I went to Oseakwa Ihiala Anambra to take a look at the Orashi River, the closest potential seaport we have in Nigeria that linked Ndi Igbo to Atlantic Ocean.

After my meeting with Oseakwa Youth one of their leaders who based in Lagos his is name Prince TonyMax who took me to his house. During our interaction on the need to dredge Orashi Oseakwa River. To my utmost dismay and shock TonyMax revealed to me that, “Shipping goods from China to Nigeria cost #N800,000 for 40ft containers.

To move the same container from Lagos Seaport to Trade fair Lagos cost #N1million

To move the container from Lagos to Southeast Nigeria cost #N1.2 to 1.5million
FG charges #20,000 each day for 40ft container packed at the seaport.

Meaning, it is cheaper to import from China to Nigeria, than to move the goods from Lagos to any part of the Country.
It may interest you to know that Lagos Seaport to Atlantic Ocean is 60 nautical miles, While the Potential Seaport we have in Oseakwa that was abandoned in 1959 is only 18 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean.
Shipping goods from China to Lagos with Lagos Seaport is very far than shipping goods from China to Oseakwa Ihiala, using the Seaport at Urashi River Ihiala Anambra state.
This means that Imo, Abia, Enugu, Ebonyi, Anambra, Rivers, Delta, Edo Beyelsa, Benue, Kogi and Akwaibom business men living in Lagos will find it easy to have their business in south- East and South-south by using Oseakwa seaport when it’s dredged

Please, let it be known from today that South East is not landlocked. It is only our economy that is locked. One quick way of unlocking the economy of South East is through marine business.

Contrary to the impression that the South East is landlocked, the truth is that it has one of the potentially deepest seaports in the country at Osemoto/Oseokwa in Imo and Anambra States.

A seaport was designated there in 1959, but the project was abandoned and the admiralty member erased for obvious political reasons. African Development Bank (ADB) feasibility report on this is unambiguous.

Oseokwa (Ihiala LGA, Anambra State) and Osemoto (Oguta LGA, Imo State) are the deepest natural harbor in the country (over 20m deep) and offer real naval and marine transportation platforms if developed. Besides, it lies only 18 nautical miles to the Atlantic Ocean and a strategic hub for the oil industry and inland dry-docks to promote trade.

This potential seaport has the capacity of handling over 35 per cent of marine business in Nigeria. As a matter of fact, it was the attraction to these potentials that made my administration in Imo state to site the Oguta Wonder Lake and Resort Centre in the area to encourage the federal government and foreign investors. If Ndigbo pursue and complete the seaport, it will also open up over 3,000 square kilometers of the most fertile agricultural land that has one of the highest alluvial deposits which has been in existence for well over a million years.

My pursuit of this revolutionary project attracted both national and international panic and may have cost me second tenure as governor (see “Demoracy By Military Tank” by Ethelbert Okere).

This deep seaport will create over two million jobs, directly and indirectly, in marine business, oil and gas, power, education, housing, agro-food industry, entertainment, tourism, etc. With that type of setting, Igbo youths will have no need to crisscross the country in search of jobs and in the process endangering their young lives.

Secret is importers prefer apapa. Market is much in SW(Lagos, Oyo and Ogun). Are where manufacturing industries are, they easily get their imported raw materials from Lagos. They take huge space in the ship, importers of low budget commodity have to patch up remaining ship space and end up in Lagos port.

Moreover, SW have the environment devoid of unnecessary security hit ups.

We go celebrate and wash this project.

Have you ever witnessed the commissioning of a project of this magnitude. I hope you know Dangote Refinery is coming on stream too on thesame axis. Better days ahead for Lagos.

You can go and wake Late Gani Fawehinmi (SAN and SAM) up to come and audit the project cost.

Show this to Obi Pandora, the man that failed to facilitate seaport to his people in his 8 years of governance who now try to runaround to incite ethnic hatred for the SS people against Tibubu who was able to create a Lekki free trade zone housing a deep seaport?

This Lekki Free trade zone was established/facilitated by Tinubu and now Niger, Chad, Cameroon, and etc already started making effort to start using the port as at today.

When Obi knows he can’t campaign with his achievement, he resorted to character assassination of a candidate with far superior achievement glaring for all to see.
Obi does not have anything to campaign with except fake integrity that he doesnt have.
How many people has he grown as a leader?
How many coys has he started since he is referred to as a billionaire?
Why were schools closed for more than one year under him?
Why did Ngige make more IGR than him in three years juxtaposed against Obi's 8 years?
Why did Anambra people call Obi a curse and a bad omen when he was the governor of Anambra?
