About the Gateway Deep Sea Port & Blue Marine SEZ:

— Over $7 billion in initial investment is expected to come into the project.

— DP World MEA FZE, one of the world's biggest port and logistics operators and the No. 1 port operator globally by revenue in 2025, is the strategic partner for the project.

— The Gateway Deep Sea Port will be located in Ogun Waterside, along the Ogun State stretch of the Lagos—Calabar Coastal Highway.

— The Ogun section of the coastal highway provides 28km of strategic access to the port, connecting it to the hinterland, reducing logistics costs and helping decongest Lagos.

— The port is projected to have an 18 metre draft and a 4km berth, making it capable of handling some of the largest vessels in the world.

— Upon completion, it is projected to be among the deepest and longest ports in Africa.

— The port will be integrated with a 10,000 hectare Blue Marine Special Economic Zone, creating an ecosystem for manufacturing, logistics, maritime services, technology and exports.

— The project is expected to create over 50,000 direct jobs, with many more indirect jobs, while stimulating SMEs and expanding supply chains.

— It will strengthen Nigeria's export capacity, attract foreign direct investment and create opportunities across manufacturing, logistics, maritime services and other sectors.

— The project will form part of Ogun's emerging multimodal infrastructure network, connecting the Deep Sea Port to the Gateway International Airport, dry ports, the Lagos Calabar Coastal Highway and other road infrastructure.

For Ogun East, Ogun State and the wider National Economy, this creates a new maritime and industrial corridor around Ogun Waterside.

This is a major infrastructure project with implications far beyond the port itself.

Vision + Infrastructure + Investment = Economic Growth. 🌊🚢

This is LEGACY.

Two Seaports are underway in Ogun State. Gateway Deep Seaport in Ogun Water Side and Dangote Deep Seaport in Olokola Free Trade.
Talking about Dangote Deep Seaport, preliminary works have started already, and upon completion, it will be the largest and deepest Seaport in Africa.

While cynics are busy criticizing the Lagos- Calabar Coastal Highway. Investors with potentials are already positioning themselves to benefit from the limitless potentials of this Legacy Project.

Dangote has already acquired 10,000 hectares of land for his proposed Deep Seaport in Olokola Free Trade which is within the Ogun State corridor of the Coastal Road. Preliminary works has started already on this site.

The FG + Ogun State Government jave now signed an MoU with DP World MEA FZE for the construction of another Deep Seaport.

Omg. Nice one! May we not have a dull child as governor, see how dem swerve Ondo state go one side. O Jami lára je!
Coastal road redirected, deep seaport ondo missing..., the Dundee is from ilaje ooo....

... yet Ondo State has the longest coastline among the Yoruba Coastal States of Lagos-Ogun-Ondo.
Ondo is arguably the richest State in Yorubaland in terms of natural resources: Oil, Bitumen, Limestone etc. The state has alot of untapped economic potentials in different sectors such as Oil & Gas, Maritime, Agriculture, Tourism, Solid Minerals.
Unfortunately, Ondo State, as it is with other states, haven't been fortunate enough to have Governors who translate the mineral wealth of the State to shared prosperity for the people and land of Ondo

Tinubu go to UNGA o. All your mates dey there. No dey disguise 🥸🥸

That is one of the reasons they fear Peter obi and Atiku like.mad.

Stop this Gum Body and Attache by Force.

The Ports in the South South are functional. Abdulsamad Rabiu's BUA Ports & Terminal operates Terminal B at the Rivers Ports Complex in Port Harcourt. Ibeto is also a leaseholder at the Port in Rivers State.

Na only South East no get seaport and cannot have one simply because it is landlocked and has no access to the Ocean.
