That has nothing to do directly with the common man.

Nice development! Congratulations SW.

The day the SE & SS get their own port, Lagos will loose its relevance.

As we know 80% of containers are owned by the SS & SE

This is why some people are fighting to keep Nigeria together

They will cry to FG again and say it is FG that is deliberately stopping them from developing, whereas this is a state government initiative and project, but all the 5 South Eastern states cannot combine and do one for themselves despite the hard currencies their children are getting from their drugs trafficking and baby factories

Those governing Lagos State both past and present has given their best in developing the state, South and South East leaders n public office holders are fools they don’t attract any good infrastructure to their region they will steal the money made for those projects n run to Lagos and Abuja to buy a house there, imagine how Delta state is currently, no functional refineries no functional seaports no functional international cargo airport, before una go wake up express don leave una, there’s nothing bad developing your regions stop acting like they buried your placenta in Lagos develop your region to a standard that attracts foreign investors and businessmen that’s exactly what lagos leaders are doing.

do you understand what transshipment is? That ship's final destination is not Nigeria, Lagos was just an intermediate destination, and the ship's final destination may be South Africa or another African country.

So how is Lagos losing revenue?

So it means Nigeria will only have one active port and calabar ports that is claimed can't take big vessels yet bring in big vessels to offload petroleum products to the depot tanks.

It is sad news indeed. Because if in this age, with the amount of knowledge available in the world today and with how things have been done in this country some people still celebrate revenue they will not see as an achievement, then it is indeed sad news

China Has 75% of Lekki Deep Seaport and will be in charge for 45 years.

• Posted by: Oshio Zekhai
21 June, 2023

The Lekki Deep Seaport is a major infrastructure project in Nigeria that has been the subject of much debate. A Chinese consortium has developed it, which has raised questions about national sovereignty and the potential for economic exploitation.

It is essential to emphasize the importance of reminding Nigerians, who are often criticized for having short memories, about the government’s underperformance in infrastructure development in the country. Notably, Lekki Port Investment Holding Inc., an international consortium, has now obtained a significant 75% stake in the Lekki Deep Seaport.

This is a project that the All Progressives Congress (APC) used as a focal point in their campaign leading up to most controversial and fraudulent elections in the annals of our history.

This consortium comprises China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd., which holds a majority share of 52.50%, and Tolaram, which holds 22.5%. The remaining ownership is divided between the Lagos State Government, which holds 20%, and the Nigerian Ports Authority, which holds 5%.

Also, the Lekki Port, situated in the Lagos Free Trade Zone, was granted a concession by the Nigerian Ports Authority to operate for a remarkable period of 45 years under a build, own, operate, and transfer agreement. Notably, China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd., as the principal entity within the consortium, possesses over 50% ownership in the project.

Former President Muhammadu Buhari’s visit to Lagos marked the commissioning of both the rice mill and the Lekki Deep Sea Port. This two-day working visit saw the president undertake the important task of inaugurating the Lekki Deep Seaport, along with the Lagos Rice Mill and the Eleko-Epe rigid pavement six-lane motorway spanning 18.75 kilometres in Imota.

The Chinese consortium’s majority stake acquisition suggests that even after 60 years of independence, Nigeria remains under the influence of foreign powers like China

The Lekki Deep Seaport, strategically located along the West African coastline, is poised to become a crucial hub for international trade and maritime activities in the region. With its state-of-the-art facilities and deep draught, the port is well-equipped to accommodate large container vessels and handle substantial cargo volumes. This development will undoubtedly bolster Nigeria’s position as a key player in the global maritime landscape and stimulate economic growth in the country.

The investment from the Chinese consortium reflects China’s increasing interest and involvement in Nigeria’s infrastructure development. As Africa’s largest economy, Nigeria offers immense potential for mutually beneficial partnerships, and the Lekki Deep Seaport project stands as a prime example of such collaboration.

The Chinese consortium’s majority stake in the Lekki Deep Seaport is a major blow to Nigeria’s sovereignty. The port is strategically located along the West African coastline and is poised to become a crucial hub for international trade. With China’s majority stake, the country will have a significant say in how the port is operated and what its role is in the global economy. This could give China undue influence over Nigeria’s economy and lead to economic exploitation.

The Seaport is expected to generate significant revenue, but the majority of this revenue will go to the Chinese consortium. This means that Nigeria will miss out on a major source of potential revenue that could be used to improve the country’s infrastructure and economy. Additionally, the project is expected to create jobs, but it is unclear how many of these jobs will go to Nigerians. This could lead to further economic inequality in Nigeria.

The Lekki Deep Seaport is a complex issue with no easy answers. However, it is important to be aware of the potential negative consequences of the project so that Nigeria can make informed decisions about its future.

I'm eager to know how you reason. We have an additional port to existing ports, but here you are saying one active port. You go school at all?

Lagos state has built it's port, what stops the SE and SS from doing same.

Why are you breaking this news to them this early ?, The thing about this people is that they always feel everyone is like them that are filled with envy, bitterness and hate but they have failed to understand that the money coming through Lagos doesn't even end up in Lagos but all the same let's continue milking the nursing cow before her sisters also get pregnant .
May more ships come so that at the end we will continue doing dorime even on the tables of our haters , and may God create more room in Thier hearts to contain the hates and bitterness....isseee
