Why must you think in such a backward manner? You sound like you are waiting for Lagos to retrogress while other states are opening up. If that is your wish then you will be disappointed, because if the emergence of Abuja couldn't derail the progress of Lagos, your pessimistic prognosis won't either. There's something called 'shared prosperity', that should be your thinking unless you are an enemy of progress. Igbos like you should learn to accept that others can also prosper in life without igbo input.

SpatialKing:
Impressive

Enough of the dependance on Lagos Port alone.

One thing is that Yorubas will never feel bad about this. not Yorubas that I know, they are not people who get sad when they see other regions making waves, they believe in one Nigeria more than any other tribe.

Some people like you just like to create divides that is not there. Personally I'm too happy about this. I'm a field engineer who resides in Lagos but gets contracts across every state in Nigeria. I'm currently in Enugu fixing machines for a hotel, my experience here is not that palatable. I could remember buying a spanner I will buy at #100 in Lagos at #350/#400 here in Enugu, why? They complain they clear and transport there goods from Lagos, making me spending extra on everything I buy here. This is npt my first experience, it is always like this when I move far away from Lagos axis. Not mentioning how I suffer just to get a simple machine parts that you will even get by the road side in Lagos.

This is a welcome development that people like me will find so appealing. But for those tribal bigots, they won't see beyond economic impacts this will have in every part of the country.

Talking about Lagos coming down, u dey whyne me ni? As somebody has said, Lagos keeps going stronger even when the country's capital was moved to Abuja. You want to tell me Lagos depends only on seaports? Either you like it or not, Lagos is the biggest economic state in Nigeria and its position won't fall behind in Africa. Let me just burst your bubble, I'm very sure you won't know about Lekki deep seaport under construction, Dangote refinery that will also produce petrochemical and fertilizer. Many massive projects still under construction in that state o boy. Don't let me talk about headquarters of many organisations being majorly situated in Lagos. And another truth is that any average Nigerian who has huge money and want to invest hugely will think Lagos first, hausas will hardly go to SS/SE but Lagos to spend their money for investment. Igbos too will find it unreasonable to go to North to invest huge but find Lagos to be the right avenue. Just too many things to mention. Tell me how having another seaport at other regions will affect this state called Lagos.

Let's stop this tribal friction we tend to create, let's speak for the unity of one Nigeria.

Oh boy....., this is going to affect Eko Atlantic. All the projections & calculations figured into the project will have to be recalculated. ( Remember, its private sector investment with the expected rate of return on investment base on time value of money. Decongestion of Lagos port can translate into overall lost of revenue for the state)

A redirection of Igbo's economic dynamism in Lagos + the kicking off, of Africa continental free trade area by the first of January 2021 is economically not a good news for the SW period.

"Sai Baba".

Is PORT HARCOURT ready for such..?
I can say noooo.
I know Port Harcourt.
NO ROAD oooo

kolaaderin:
You are still thinking low, we need rivers to develop so stress can be taking off Lagos a bit. Because there is oil in rivers does not mean it should be greater than Lagos, is Texas more economically viable than State of Newyork and California? and has beijiin china changed the destiny of Hongkong. They are prospering all together.

kolaaderin:
You better thank Buhari for this fit. Lagos is happy to have this happening, Apapa can breath again from disastrous congestion caused by years of negligence of PDP and their silly supporters.

winterfell007:


Please don't take him seriously. He doesn't speak for us. He's one of those demented apostles of that fraudster, Nnamdi Kanu. Igbos generally welcome even development in all region so long as everyone is carried along and no one is feeling marginalized

LegendHero:
Nice one.

This will lift a heavy burden from Lagos and the people that always chant that Lagos is what it is only because of the seaport can actually create a bigger Lagos in their region with this feat.

Nice one APC, Buhari, Amaechi, and Hadiza.

Olatomiwami:




U are too myopic because of your hatred for anything Yoruba, your economics conspiracy theories won't move us an inch, nation's capital has been moved to Abuja since how many years now, has it affected south west economic hub? Ur ruinous container economy is not economy, go back to economics school bro.

EVILFOREST:

Is PORT HARCOURT ready for such..?
I can say noooo.
I know Port Harcourt.
NO ROAD oooo

juman:
What the igbo controlled jonathans government could not do. They could not make their ports operational.
They should be thanking the present government.

We need more than ten sea ports in nigeria.

So Igbos that have only want secession believe in one Nigeria than Yorubas? The Northerns that want to remain in power forever believe in one Nigeria than Yorubas?
Why are you doing this to yourself? If you want to argue, back it up with something everyone will see and understand, stop talking like this bro

Are you saying that Ameachi that was a former PDP members and his silly supporters contributed to the disastrous congestion of Apapa sea port?!

NGpatriot:


You and your kind just can not curb your desire for the demise of Lagos state, obviously, you don't know the meaning of Lagos.

Lagos is not just about seaport, Lagos is the industrial heart of Nigeria, it's the commercial capital, entertainment capital, literary, arts and culture capital, banking, finance, media, insurance capital and so on, these are the things and qualities PH or any other state or city in Africa can not duplicate.

Stop letting your hateful, ignorant and tribal ways misguid you.
