No, keep keeping everything in Lagos.
Nobody should move anything anywhere
In fact move all state headquarters to Lagos.
After you test the waters then you can start swimming.
The beginning is yet to start.

This Cow does not even know how ridiculous he sounds. How on earth would Buhari move NPA from an APC State to a perpetual PDP state? Northerners would like a billion times more comfortable with NPA in Lagos than any of the SS states.

Even the headquarters of oil companies are all in Lagos instead of port Harcourt.

Save us the sob story please, no one cares, after all other cities like Calabar, P.H, Warri and Onitsha are all in Nigeria too, if your Northern masters decide to move the operational base to safer areas, I don't think it's bad.

I feel your frustration sha

You're suffering from Stockholm syndrome!!

Lagos in 2019 alone contributed 70% of Nigeria's 5.2tr VAT revenue yet she still has to share it equally with states like Zamfara.
I will never forget when the move to grant Lagos 2% of VAT was thrown out under Saraki. Niger Delta states enjoy 13.5% derivation from FG as oil producing states. In sincerity, Lagos it won't be an understatement to say Lagos should enjoy 13.5% of the VAT of which she's the largest contributor of. I pray Yayi forces the bill through.

Taking it away will be a blessing in disguise that will enable Sanwo Olu speed up the execution of Lekki sea and airport. Lagos has a masterplan. That seeks not to depend on the FG in nearest years to come. Restructuring is the key.

But why are afonjas scared by this move?

There are 2 very dangerous kinds of violence in Nigeria..
Hausa Fulanis... ..occasional physical violence.
Igbos.....continual verbal violence.
Both are very dangerous in a fledging society.

okay...

Could the port possibly face destruction and uneasiness? Yes.

But that's not a good reason why it should be moved. Even a shift is needed, it should be considered at a neutral time. Not because of the leverage created by #endSARS.



And would you please stop this gibberish?

I'm not Yoruba, but if you think I will always sniff for every opportunity to trigger more hatred against you guys, that means I'd be trading my reasoning and sanity.

Legendhero is fulani.

LegendHero:
A former member of the House of Representatives and aspirant for the position of the national chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Ibrahim Baba, has written to President Muhammadu Buhari, urging him to shift the operational base of Nigerian seaports from Lagos to Port Harcourt.

The former lawmaker, in a letter dated October 22, also copied the offices of the Vice President and the minister of transportation.

He based his reason on the wanton destruction of properties recently by hoodlums which led to the burning of the Nigerian Ports Authority office in Lagos.

“Already, there are two major seaports in Rivers State – the Rivers ports and the Onne port – that can successfully execute all the international shipping businesses that have been going on in Lagos,” said Mr Baba.

“And may I also advise that similar ports in Calabar, Cross Rivers State and elsewhere be enhanced, and completion works on the Baro port in Niger State should be expedited so that the country can have various alternative means of facilitating local and international trade. This will also help free the nation from possible threats and blackmails by gangsters who could destroy or hijack a particular port in order to sabotage the nation’s economy.”

PREMIUM TIMES reported how hoodlums, following the shooting of unarmed protesters at the Lekki Tollgate on Wednesday, set ablaze the NPA building, among other government properties, in Lagos.

The shooting at the Lekki Tollgate also led to an escalation of violence with reported attacks on private properties and businesses.

Prominent amongst properties destroyed by the hoodlums were the BRT station with buses, TV Continental (TVC), Adekunle police station, Herbert Macaulay Yaba and Lagos City Mall amongst others.

Asides Lagos, properties were also looted and destroyed in Ondo, Jos, Kano and Abuja.

All the efforts by Fulani and their stooges to divide the south will totally flop!
You want to act like other southerners are the ones trying to close the seaport in the southwest and open it in the SS abi? Coconut heads, you have already failed.

Meanwhile as you are thinking other senseless plots to pitch southerners against one another, Go and take your cows away from the southern farms and place them in ranches. Also, stop your silly attempts to annex peoples lands and give same to Fulanis under the guise of water resources bill. The coming revolution will be about creating a just and equitable Nigeria. Just get ready! Unless something tangible is done to save Nigerian unity before it starts.

[s]This have always been the plan by non-Yorubas and all they want is to cripple the financial power of Lagos.

The guy that said this is a Northerner and they also share the same mindset as the Easterners too who have always clamored for the same thing under a different pretext.

They have the right to opinion and we shouldn’t be bothered about that because I personally also want Other ports to be In a good state to lessen the burden on Lagos.

However, check the pattern of play. Northerners through Arewa first accused Tinubu of sponsoring the EndSARS protest, then they sent soldiers to Lagos thereby strategically blaming Tinubu for the Lekki shooting. But when Soldiers shot in Rivers and Abuja, it’s Buhari that sent them. But in Lagos, Tinubu is the one controlling the soldiers so they say!

Easterners on their own want Tinubu to come down and Kanu want you to burn and kill Sanwoolu together. They don’t care about Peter Obi and the Akwuzu massacre by burning Obi house.

They are just playing the Yorubas against one another while they come in to lord over you after you’ve successfully ended one another. When two brothers fight like they say, an outsider inherit their properties. Simple.

Now this has shown that an outsider CANNOT love you more than your own people. This is a wake up call to the Yorubas that have been psychological twisted to always run down our own simply because others told you to[/s].

VAT is not only from the ports.. Go and study how VAT is being derived before quoting me... I will give you a quick example. Do you know how many bottles of soft drinks is being consumed in Lagos a day Now imagine how much VAT those companies will have to pay to produce one bottle. According to your own statement the oil in Nigeria is for everybody I ask why then is the oil producing states getting extra 13.5%

Stop decieving yourself, Igbos are all over the world and not just in Lagos or SW.

The fact that many of us are abroad doesn't mean our region isn't economically vibrant. We are capitalists and investors who keep searching for fresh grounds to capture.

Yes, your current misfortune. Lagos Chamber of commerce has stated that Lagos economy lost over 1 trillion naira in the last few days and the gambaris still want to finish it off by moving the operational base of NPA from Lagos to the Niger Delta, that's gross misfortune my friend.

What is this one saying? While I dont agree that operations should shift to portharcourt completely , I however feel it should enjoy the same status and activity like Lagos

When you benefit from inequitable distribution of privileges you shout injustice whenever an attempt is made to do the right thing

When we were saying the development in lagos is because amongst other things it enjoyed the.privileges of being the federal capital for most of Nigerias history and the fact that the port operations are concentrated excessively in lagos una dey run mouth that jagaban built lagos from scratch .

It should be adjusted so that one Adeyinka grand son will not be making useless statements ..

Goods meant for SW and SS should go to portharcourt and calabar

buJu234:
My advice is to allow all seaports to be functional but we need to make the existing one which is lagos port to be functional too..

Cos building new seaport is not cheap.

exactly..

Lagos reputation has been battered by these sponsored orgy of violence. The problem is that violence can erupt anytime. If Sanwo-olu is smart he must address the elephant in the room.

It’s not a surprise, Igbo by nature have a problem of religious intolerance and you can’t give what you don’t have.

We don’t need your solidarity or love so keep it for your people.

Go ahead now and burn down Peter Obi ancestral home and all his business coz he masterminded the Akwuzu massacre.

Stop professing fake love to the Yorubas, we don’t need it!

You are obviously a child and I believe you should be in your teens ..you need to How up ..Your hands seems to be faster than your thought .Shill stop behaving like all these almajiris that do things with our thinking ..I can justify their stupidity, due to lack of education & their social religious life style but you are educated and still in school I guest ..some times you react to things becos you have read it ,digest it, research and analyze it & confirm it to be true than act base on how opinion leaders want you to act ..That is the different between an educated person & an illiterate.A complete illiterates need people to read & think for them but you are not them ..You are a southerner pls act as one .

See how the Aboki played your small head and now, you will return to their loving arms as an eternal slave. What does the fellow have to do with sea ports? Lagos ports can function as well as other ports in the east. If he wants northern ports to function, he should focus his message on that and quit playing Yoruba against the Igbos. We all know it is the Yoruba that will blink first.

Look at a very beautiful idea this man raised that needs fresh n young minds to fine tune it for national development.

Una don use tribalism scatter the thread...

there plan is to cripple lagos state to the brim,no wonder lagos state has always been scared.

Deep down, you know you're joking. Since FCT has been moved to Abuja over 3 decades ago coupled with trillions of naira expended there so as to make it more bustling than Lagos, it has not even reach the quarter of Lagos status. There's a big reason why igbos can't play with Lagos even when they are threatened to leave, they rather run to UN for salvage. Pack all the ports to east today, it won't still make any difference.

You guys are the same people that will always call igbos for help, because of how miserable you guys are as a people. You better accept your God-given opportunity that your heros (igbos) are granting you guys. It is a known fact that Yorubas need igbos to successfully achieve anything they want.

Even though I am not ready to stand with Yorobaboons in anything (and I believe that those igbos supporting you guys are brainwashed), I see your post as utter rubbish.

All deep sea ports should be working at full capacity.

Ports in the south eastern part of the country were only neglected as part of a coordinated policy to emasculate the Ibos immediately after the war...same way arbitrary state lines were hurriedly drawn to excise the oil producing areas from so-called Biafra, etc

If Port Harcourt has all what it takes to have an operational seaport, why not build another and leave Lagos the Bleep alone cause we're not fighting each other, we are one Nigeria and shouldnt bring up ethnic propaganda when it comes to development besides, there's more two Sea Ports can do not to talk of three where the third would be located in Onna Akwa Ibom come any year.
