Stop the needless hype! The day this country ends, other ports will start functioning, especially those in Warri and Calabar

IamMobisola:
So we have just 10 functioning ports in Nigeria?

1 fully operational
1 partially operational
2 semi-partially operational


Namely:

Lagos (Tincan, Apapa, Lekki deepsea) - full
Portharcourt (Onne) - partially
Warri - semi partially
Calabar - semi partially


The rest are audio lol


But if we are a serious country that truly want collective national growth without prejudice or some hidden tribal agenda, we ought to have full functional ports at:

Lagos
Ondo
Edo
Warri
Anambra/Onitsha
Imo/Abia
Calabar
Portharcourt
Kaduna/Kano/Sokoto/Kogi any of them can have inland port or dry port


It's now left for importers and exporters to decide which seaport to use based on proximity, cost and other considerations, not what we have currently which is the main reason Lagos is being over congested and carrying the load of 10 states.


They used politics to corner and concentrate every federal development projects and infrastructure in Lagos, which is what attracted most Nigerians, foreigners and firms into Lagos and even neighboring states like Ogun.

Why was Lagos state government complaining when NPA was diverting goods to Warri port?

You built an artificial system and you are clapping for yourself for building that system.

One thing I love with telling lies is that the person telling the lies knows that he is Lying.

This country leaders are not true to themselves, yet they're acting surprised that we don't trust them.

They think everything is a game.

How can you cripple other regions in favour of your own. And seize every opportunity to highlight your own as excellent, when we all know there is bias. It's just like Tinubu's appointment. Even a blind man can see the imbalance from day 1

60 percent of these money is paid by people from the south east yet no single port there

That's the customs command in that area controlling import export activities in that area now. All the above stated Ports and border are customs commands

tunwumi:

Lagos did not position it self.

It's dirty politics of stifling, killing , under using other ports in NIGERIA that has created this national embarrassment. Especially, the ports in P.h are under used deliberately and systematically just to keep Lagos leading.

Don't come here bragging about ports in NIGERIA.

This is why the South South people will never be happy with gej The monopoly ought to have been broken.

And it will break one day with a right Government.

Is the FG also compelling people to export only through Lagos ports?

Good morning, been having internal heat for some time now, what could be the cause?

tunwumi:

There's no positioning by Lagos in the sense of the word. It is how it was positioned from colonial times and during the oil boom era due to infrastructural investments by the military regimes.

tunwumi:

This data shows how Nigeria has positioned Lagos.
Every single port was established with federal money and policy. Especially policy. Thats why the Warri and Port Harcourt ports haven't grown or improved despite their much more strategic or central location

It’s very funny listening to you guys talk about Lagos.

What you don’t understand is that all those imports are no”exports” that are as a result of Lagos productivity, but “exports” as a result of the needs of other states.

Meaning: without the production of goods (particularly oil) coming in from other states, it Lagos will just be like another Benin Republic.

Aile:
Lagos a country that should be on its own

it benefiting from one Nigeria contraption.
If it was a country on it own
90 percent of the shipping business go disappear.
You don't expect a Biafra port authority to be patronizing Lagos
Or Republic of Northwest Nigeria will be using Far Northern Land borders

for the purpose of education, please can you tell us or explain to us who is stopping other ports from functioning optimally. Then, jutstapox with the facts that someone from the south South, GEJ just left as a president of Nigeria.

A parasite will always lead.
