More grease to Lagos Elbows. A testimony to what inspired leadership can achieve amongst abject mediocrity and misrule.

Real Nigerians love Asiwaju.

This is a really remarkable project.
I don't know whether it is a 100% Lagos state funded project, or whether the Federal govt contributed in part or whole to its funding.
I strongly suspect federal funding because this is Nigeria.
If Lagos state funded it solo, then there's no reason why Ibaka seaport should not have been completed by now.
Governments of eastern states should learn from Lagos about delivering big projects.
Truth.

Just a bitter, twisted and sadistic soul. Even more sad if the character is truly female.

matify83:
This is beautiful.

The government should help divert some cargos to this port to decongest Apapa port.

This port looks under utilized.

Lekki Port LFTZ Enterprise Limited (LPLEL) is the Special Purpose Vehicle which was awarded the concession for the development and operations of Lekki Deep Sea Port by the Nigerian Ports Authority. LPLEL is required to develop, build and operate a standard user multipurpose port under a concession and has sub-concessioned the container terminal operations to Lekki Freeport Terminal, a subsidiary of CMA-CGM.
LPLEL is a joint venture enterprise owned by a group of investors led by the Lekki Port Investment Holdings Inc. (comprising China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd and Tolaram), the Lagos State Government and the Federal Government of Nigeria through the Nigerian Ports Authority.

LPLEL is incorporated under the Companies & Allied Matters Act and licensed by the Nigerian Export Processing Zones Authority to operate in the Lagos Free Zone. This opens a host of benefits for Lekki Port regarding taxes, duties and other incentives.

The shareholding structure of the Port is as follows: The Lekki Port Investment Holding Inc. (international consortium) owns 75% (China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd 52.50%, Tolaram 22.5%), the Lagos State Government owns 20% while Nigerian Ports Authority owns 5%.

I Love Bola Ahmed Tinubu

seguno2:


Abject mediocrity and misrule that has made Lagos a glorified ghetto in the league of global cities, since it has failed to have mass transit, water and sanitation systems. Why do you think that Tinubu omitted these things from his master plan that may have been copied from Chicago

tollyboy5:

On the issue of sanitation, draconian laws will be enacted because dirty people full this Lagos

gare:

BadBradley:
Decongesting the entire ports in Lagos is also good for the nation. We want to see ports in the South South in full operation too. Just like we have international airports now

chigo32:
They will not do it, they want only Lagos to be collecting the revenue generated from the sea Port.

What could be more sadistic than what has been inflicted on Nigerians since May 29 last year? Are you aware that the petrol price increase in a single day was the highest in the history of the world? In other words, in no country have petrol subsidies been removed totally in a single day so as to jack the price up at once by two hundred per cent. In every country this is done gradually in phases. Only in Nigeria was it done like that. Don't take my word for it, research it, I did. What is that if not sadism?

And then you follow up immediately by floating the naira leading to such depreciation that devalues the naira so much that the inflation that kicks in is murderous. Is it that you don't live in Nigeria, or you don't shop in Nigeria or you are so rich it doesn't register with you? Because I don't get it.

When people say these are teething pains they are deploying a familiar excuse for bad policy making. This could have been handled much much better by any leader who was sensitive.

Sadistic?
Think again.

TopBanter:


Save your rubbish for those who care. You don't understand the concept of relevance and taken every news on it's own merit.

When good developments are highlighted, you celebrate that and save the lamentation for a thread where such is relevant.

Your lamentation is as wanted here as someone shedding tears about a recent death, at the naming ceremony of a new baby that has brought joy to people who simply want to celebrate and be happy at that time. It does not mean they dón't understand that death and pain exist in the world.

They simply know there is a time and place for everything. Yes those I call sadistic are exactly that and joyless also.
