Good people of nairaland forum, it's obvious that something(s) went wrong along the line. Please let's share our view and opinion probably the people at the helm of affairs might be awakened and do the needful.

Thanks.

Oh Lagos, my Lagos....city of guts and glory. What happened to you? Who defaced your beauty?

That's what you get when you don't open sea ports in other regions just like China did. All Chinese state facing the sea has a sea port. But the wickedness in this part of the world no want development in other regions.

So make we all squeeze ourselves in the only one we've got

Is that really Lagos back in the day

One of the major problem is the Danfos,okadas and,Keke napped roaming Lagos. Hopefully, come January next year, danfos would become a thing of the past..

Does Port-harcourt not have a seaport? What about Calabar? What about Onne? Even Onitsha is being given a river port as we speak. Warri and Sapele also have river ports. So what grammar are you talking here?

Go and check the useless politics been played to undermine the existence of those sea ports u mentioned. No importer make use of those ports, they wil stil have to come to lagos to clear their goods because Lagos is the only sea port that goods can be cleared. Try using Port Harcourt sea port for ur goods and see what wil happen, u wil run at a loss if u are eventually cleared. That is the evil politics played by the Northerners in collaboration with the westerners led by Obj and Tinubu

Dats becos Lagos is d centre of attraction... International airport, wharf and ports, import routes, U name it... Every single thing in dis country goes thru lag. Some naturally it became a magnet for ppl... Ppl left d rural areas for d dream of d big city Lagos.. Abuja helped to some extent to reduce d pressure but abuja doesn't offer half d opportunities Lagos offers

Oyibo left too soon, that's just the reason.

This was before our brodas from d flipside invaded us with their gala hawking, yoghurt, chinchin... selling fake clothes, shoes2nd hand bags in the middle of the roads. No thanks to the FCT title

Oga people have been using Port-harcourt and Onne ports to clear their goods without issues! Don't say what you don't know.

Abeg, erico2k2 please come and school your misguided brothers here, biko!

look....you people like talking una selfs too much down....india and china is not much better.....

go to oyibo land and let them be over only you....we are tired of this rubbish talks...pack your things and leave nigeria already....

If you fill all places with Agbero, what do you expect to get? Agbero culture has taken over.

He who does not know and does not know that he does not know and does not want to know is a f00l.

I rest my case.

Mind you, our neighbor Ghana took independence before us...

I agree with you to a very good extent.
Should we now lay the whole quota blame on our leadership system or structure?

1960 before potor people found their way into Lagos. No Chisco, GUO, Ezenwata and co. then.

Yorubas had peace and orderliness.

when they retaliate you'll fold up your dirty knickers and scream potopoto to the roof tops begging the mods to intervene when infact you're the real nuisance.

stop sounding funny, if the Port Harcourt port is as accessible as Lagos, nobody wil have to clear goods in Lagos before moving them dwn to Ph.

Oga ask importers that have used Port-harcourt ports, before you make such a statement. Last year, my company cleared goods through Onne sea port.

Then what Happened this year, tel them to clear their goods this year, or why did they stop using there.

I moved to another company early this year, so their current state of operations is unknown to me. But there are various threads and posts by people who have used Onne port and Port-harcourt port to receive their goods and clear them. Check through NL boards.

WhoRUDeceiving:
Even you know this is just an imagination. Yoruba were the most disorganized region until 1967. The slave coast has to thank Fulani for what they even have today, which still, isn't much

Haba! How can you talk like dis, nah? If you wan do propaganda, abeg put small truth inside am. In my history classes, we were taught that Yorubas lived in city states and towns. Do you know the level of order that existed in those city states? Many SE communities at that time, were still hamlets o...

bro stop argueing what is a knwn fact. No serious minded business man uses Port Harcourt Port to clear goods consistently unless on political settlement , go ask ur former company if they are stil using Ph port, and if they stil use ask them the conditions surrounding it

Oga, stop arguing blindly. I just don't have a lot of time now, otherwise I would have gone through the archives to pull out posts and comments from importers that have successfully imported goods through Port-harcourt and Onne ports. Pls do your checks and stop arguing.
