Buhari To Inaugurate First Northern Nigeria's River Port On Saturday by FriendNG: 2:41pm On Jan 17, 2019
President Muhammadu Buhari will on Saturday, January 19, inaugurate the new Baro River Port in Niger, which has just been completed by the Federal Government at a cost of N6 billion.

Tayo Fadile, General Manager in charge of Corporate Affairs, National Inland Waterways Authority, NIWA, made this known in Lokoja on Thursday. Mr Fadile said that the port was built by CGCC Global Project Nigeria Ltd.
According to him, the new port is fitted with a Mobile Harbour Crane, Transit shed and an Administrative block.

“It is also equipped with facilities such as water hydrant system, water treatment plant, reach stacker, 100KVA power generating set and three forklifts of various tonnages, among others.

“Baro Port is one of the river ports being built by the Federal Government to support the dredging of the Lower River Niger project.

“The Baro river port is expected to create at least 2,000 direct jobs and hundreds of thousands indirect jobs.

“It will help keep off the road several heavy duty trailers and trucks, thereby extending the life span of our roads,’’ Mr Fadile said in a statement.

He said that NIWA had started upgrading the road network linking the port.

And the Onitsha, Warri and Calabar port that will help the country in no small measure is still been played politics with because of the 'put them down policy' against the Igbo? No wahala.

Until we as a country learn to do first things first, there won't be any meaningful development in this 'geographical expression'. But one thing I know for sure is if we fail to address injustice early and keep sweeping them under the carpet, our geographical expression' will be filled with "mess" one blessed day undecided

Lately I've been seeing front page threads listing projects being completed by Buhari's administration. Is this all an attempt to sway voters during election day?

Yes oh.
Because all the projects were initiated last week and completed this week. Is this government not magically wonderful?

Sarcasm aside, Nigerians need to learn to follow up on what is being done by their governments, that way they can hold them accountable.

I track projects on skyscrapercity and I can say that I've been overwhelmed in trying to keep up with the huge number of projects being done by this administration in just a short time.
Compared to PDP era with very little to track, this government has done very well on Infrastructure.

So I say 4+4

WHY IS THE NORTHERN LEADERSHIP KILLING THE WARRI SEAPORT.

They create DRY PORT IN KADUNA and now Baro seaport in Niger state.

They can not cheat nature as the Baro seaport will still have to survive on the support from the coastal seaport in Warri, Bayelsa and Rivers seaport.

people supporting buhari are insane and they need real medical check up..ATIKU ABUBAKAR IS SUCCESSFUL in these areas;

1.Business
2. Education
3. Security
4. Jobs/Employment
5. Electricity
and many more.


SAI AtikuObi mandate


sai daddy AA

we are supporting Atiku due to the following reasons; because he's better than Buhari in terms of academic qualifications, he's not tribalistic, he's not as heartless as Buhari, Atiku is more educated, handsome, and vibrant. Iam just ashamed of Buhari as a president, Buhari possesses zero quality of being a president. Buhari has no sympathy in him, he has no conscience as a human. If only my choice of candidate could win the election then I would've voted for my choice of candidate in Donald Duke, but for my vote not to split and favour that mistake could Buhari, I will rather give my mandate to Atiku, so that lifeless illiterate can be ejected out of office. How can an illiterate be a president? That's very strange and irritating. Like for example, in a university, before you become a vice-chancellor, you must have attained the height of professorship. So tell me, why will an uneducated man be a president of a country? who and what is he leading? because, as for me, Atiku is much more better than Buhari in every aspect. As for the corruption allegation, we all know that all Nigerian politicians are corrupt, just that some are more corrupt than the others. I hate tribalism and wickedness, which is what Buhari fully possess! To be sincere, Buhari is just a total disgrace, let's tell ourselves the truth. A president whose vice is 100% better than him. Mind you, Iam not playing politics, Iam just preaching the truth. Believe it or not, people pretending to like Buhari knows that
NA so una madness dey start... You want me to vote for your candidate but na curse that will bounce back to your generation you take start... PDP mumus will never learn.

After watching the clueless one answer simple questions on NTA interview I can only conclude that pdp possibly looted the brain of Buhari and must be investigated.
There is no other explanation to the degree of brainlessness displayed by Buhari on national television. APC should better not allow him appear for any debate bikonu.
Enough embarrassment seen already

One man from Otuoke was also at the helms of affairs for almost 6 years in this country. He must have played the politics of "put them down policy" against the igbo as well.
