vaxx: Containership capacity is measured in TEU (Twenty Foot Equivalent Unit) which is the same as 1 x 20ft long container. So the worlds largest ship for example in Hong Kong can carry 21,413 TEU (twenty foot containers). And mps Tema can take as much as 18,000 container at once base on the capacity. You can see the minor difference. Lekki seaport ha is too small to do that.
I am of the opinion you are familiar with this subject. I want to believe that.
Check the teus of both then you will know which is bigger and larger than the other
68816419: This what differentiate Nigeria with other Africa countries, take Lagos for instance, Lagos got many cities within it self and these cities have functional stand alone infrastructures comparable to many Africa countries capitals
You can say that again. For example ikeja is another amazing city within a city
Lagos Island is connected to the mainland by three large bridges which cross Lagos Lagoon to the district of Ebute Metta. It is also linked to the neighbouring island of Ikoyi and to Victoria Island. The Lagos harbour district of Apapa faces the western side of the island. Forming the main commercial district of Lagos, Lagos Island plays host to the main government buildings, shops and offices. The Catholic and Anglican Cathedrals as well as the Central Mosque are located here.
Historically, Lagos Island (Isale Eko) was home to the Brazilian Quarter of Lagos where the majority of the slave trade returnees from Brazil settled. Many families lived on Broad Street in the Marina.
Economy Most Nigerian banks' head offices are located on Lagos Island. First Bank of Nigeria is one of the Nigerian banks with its head office in Marina, Lagos Island. Another bank that has its head office situated in Lagos Island is United Bank for Africa (UBA). Other medium and large-scale businesses such as real estate consultancy firms, electrical appliances manufacturers and retail stores are based in Marina, Lagos Island
When ever any slummish nairobian tells you that they have more skyscrappers than lagos simply because lagos skyscrappers is not clogged up at one spot pls ensure you lift your hands and slap some sense into them
Nah its the capacity that matters.there is a reason why it's called capacity which translate with the yield point of what both ports can contain individually.that way you know which port is bigger. I am glad you closed the case anyway cause I was going to do the same, because you were distracting me from attending to those slum dwellers
68816419: GBAGBADALAGOS MAINLAND- where low and very low income earners resides Part of reasons y Lagos is a "MEGA CITY " is because, it has many neighborhoods with large population and better wide spread development than many Africa countries capitals
: [b]My favorite tower First tower name is No 4 Bourdillion that tower is just some meters away from Cuddle Tower which should be completed first quarter of next year, Ikoyi skylines is massively rising , Currently there are about 14 towers ongoing at Ikoyi
PIC 1- No 4 Bourdillion AND Cuddle Tower PIC 2- CUDDLE TOWER (Construction currently at 60%, to be completed Q1 of next year) PIC 3- 4 Bourdillon | Lagos RENDER PIC 4- 4 Bourdillon | Lagos COMPLETEDLol my favourite is that cuddle tower.it's like a rich blend of European architectural style imbibed with modern architectural pattern. It's look like one of those tower at mandela square. I also love dimple tower at abuja that one look so modern and glassy
68816419: Yaba Yaba is a suburb located on[b] Lagos Mainland[/b], Lagos in Lagos State. There are several Federal Government Institutions in the area, which include Queen's College, the Nigerian Institute of Medical Research, the Yaba College of Technology, Igbobi College, the University of Lagos, the Federal Science and Technical College, and the Federal College of Education.Yaba has one of the busiest market sites in Lagos, known as Tejuosho Market, Nigeria. The old Tejuosho market was demolished in 2008 and rebuilt into a modern shopping complex by the end of 2014. Directly opposite the Yaba market is a Psychiatric hospital porpularly known by many Lagosians as Yaba Left by many[1] Yaba is one of the go-to places for technology renaissance in Africa, with Tech Start ups like Hotels.ng, Andela, Cc-Hub and many others impacting the economy ecosystem for good. As the popularity of the region soars, the hotels in Yaba is evolving as well to cater for the upsurge of tourists and business owners and as well as look at the part - upwardly mobile. In recent times, Yaba market had been the house or major market for almost everyone living around the vicinity. There are various markets located inside the Yaba market, varying from clothe boutiques to sports complex and food items. Due to Lagos' agenda for a Mega city Lagos, most of the small shops in the Yaba market had been demolished, leaving just the bus park and the market behind the rail road
Nah yaba is too big to be depicted by just those four. My favourite part of yaba is akoka and herBert Macauley roads (yabatech).infact wave headquarter tower is there.
JaceBlaze: Roasted who? go back to the thread again a see the onslaught of fierce expletives by two South Africans there.Nigerians will never roast anyone,especially now because you have overtaken India as number one most poverty striken country in the world.In my humble opinion,wherever Nigerians see an e-war brewing they should run like when their soldiers run from Boko Haram
Problemkid1: That guy is a confirme hypocrite do you know those my brothers Na i talked about on Nairaland. There is one thread about South Africans protesting of deporting nigerians. It lead to quarrel of Nigerians, South Africans with Ghanaians. Well, why the Ghanaians were involved is because they mention Ghana there so they have the right to defend their country. But this useless egbo smoker called Tylann just puts his mouth into a discussion that does not concern him or his shitthol country. The idiot started insulting nigerians for no reason. You no the funny part. They asked the idiot to mention the country he came from, Tylann refused to mention his shitthol country. he's just busy gallivanting around, taking nonsese. They still asked him again to mention his shitthol country. This idiot refused ooh he knows that if he mistakenly mention Kenya lol, they will finish him there because they know that kenya is a complete shitthol village see the screenshot here. They just want to know the country he came from so that they can roast him well, since they have roasted the south Africans already
Hahaha I have always known tylann as an hypocrite but to deny his motherland , no that is so coward of him. Pls give me the link of that thread
And who said you are our brother Who wants Nigeria as their brother
Spare me your emotional essays my point has already hit home
I think your memory is really bad , go back a few page and see where you called us brother .you know what dont, cos I see you are ashamed .you extended a hand of brotherly love and acceptance to me but I repudiated that offer and now you are left to tuck your hand shake shamefully and awkwardly back in your pocket.
As for my writeup I was hoping you would point out where I was wrong . Trust Me it was hard to exclude insult in my post knowing fully well that you would hide under insult and call it emotion. I want the truth of your country to sink deep into your head
vaxx: That is the potential idea and the aim of the contractor that is handling the lekki project. Many at times they don't meet their aim. Lekki is new, Tema isn't.....
As you can see the acres of land the project is going to cover state it all.no need to further go back and forth.
An in addition, roads are also been build as well along the expanded harbour.
My dude sent me this .... And he said the job so far is very impressive.
Vaxx tbh I don't know why you are trying to deride the obvious.the govt or PPP whoever is sponsoring that must have told the contractors what they want and it is left to the contractor to actualize that dream when properly funded. Did you even listen to your self "IT IS THE AIM OF THE CONTRACTORS AND MANY AT TIMES THEY DON'T MEET THEIR AIM" I ask you vaxx do you know this contractors personally to know if they are competent enough for the job and able to meet the required capacity? Lekki deepseaport has a capacity of 4.7 million while yours has a capacity of 3 million .just because yours is an expansion doesn't mean we cannot build something entirely bigger than your entire expansion,remember we paid extra $1.5m for ours .you should be happy yours will cater for 3 million people while ours on the other hand will cater for 200 million alongside the over 5 port construction that are bigger that each existing ones. For example before they came up with badagry deepseaport lagos state govt did a research on the current port and the ones under construction in africa and made sure that badagry and ibom will remain the biggest and the largest on the continent
tylann: The last time al shabaab attacked Nairobi was in February Since then how many people has terrorist groups killed in Nigeria
Worry about Nigeria not Kenya
Removing a speck from your brothers eyes while there is a log in your eye is what you are good at
Hahahaha firstly you are not our brother.secondly hypocrisy is your thing.haven't you been posting boko haram killings here but now that I return the favour you are pissed. I guess you know how that feels. Fact still remains that boko haram attacks remain in one local village in nigeria that is almost forgotten not the one going on in your capital as we speak and is aimed at crippling all economic activities. And for the record alsaahab did a kidnap in April and now the are back with the appropriate killing that suits you. No one wants to help you not even ethopia and UN army.everyone want you to defend yourself with your 95 globally ranked army
vaxx: nah, you lied again the lekki deep sea port project is 1.5 billion dollar awarded to the Chinese company. It can only boast of 2 million capacity and cover only 90 acres of land . Very small. Even to the size of the newly expanded Takoradi harbour ( second largest sea port in Ghana).
Mps, Tema sea port is the largest in West Africa. Covering 238 acres of land and with a potential handling capacity of 3. 5 million TEUs when fully completed. The first phase will open next week. THE POTENTIAL OF THiS PROJECT WILL CHANGE GHANA ECONOMICALLY. It will be able to handle some of the world biggest ship carrying up to 18,000 containers. You can translate that to cash and imagine the amount Ghana is expected to make form it. And beside, The overall economic impact of this project will translate into 400, 000 jobs along the logistics chain. The investment being made would also change the dynamics of the country’s maritime industry over the next 100 years. That is the long time achievement.
Moreover, there is another development going in Volta region of Ghana to extablish a new sea port at keta . Work already begin......
Let's see badagry sea port spec and the acres of land is going to cover and likewise that of akwaibom sea port.
The new SGR from from lagos to ibadan
Vaxx you see most times everything doesn't have to be a long argument but accepting what's on ground and moving on.I agrees about your mps tema because I watched the video on online and I can relate to the capacity you have stated above. I believe I attached a post that stated it is a 1.5 million capacity and it expected to grow to 2.7 million and 4.7 million when operational (I didnt come up with that post remember)which would make it 1.7 million higher than yours and we are to gain at least $560bn from it in years to come.
Hahahaha you don't just get ot do you.everyone knows boko haram are hiding in sambisa forest and always go out to raid small villages in borno state. Your hypocrisy has always led you to led you to follow current news on their attack as though nairoslum your capital has gotten rid of alsaahab.btw nigeria and kenya yours is worst.attacking nairoslum is like destroying kenya's destiny, destroying your tourism sector, chase out investors, affecting your economice growth and damaging your best infastructure which is exactly one of the main ingredient you need to go back to the 90s era. You are the one always shouting no more alsaahab In kenya, the last time they attack was in January yours has been consistent while ours has stopped . It's obvious everyone hate kenya, I mean where are those ethopia army that you signed a treaty to always have your back or the british UN army. No one wants to save you anymore, they all want your incompetent, 86 globally ranked army to defend their country
68816419: Do you even know that we produce far more fertilizers than Kenya and that you guys might never catch up with us in this lifetime going by new factories springing up on a daily bases in Nigeria, among which is the largest fertilizer company in the Africa if not in the world by Dangote group.?
You forgot to educate them on indoramA fertilizer Plant. They will cry for our projects ooooo
The 3-Hills estate is on a 170 hectares expanse of land along the Abeokuta expressway and shares a boundary with the new Government Model School under construction. It is designed as a Site and Services scheme and is strategically located at less than two minutes from the main Abeokuta township. The estate is only twenty minutes from the Sagamu interchange on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.
The 3-Hills estate is fully residential and includes support facilities such as a neighborhood centre consisting of a shopping mall and events center. The residential area would be developed to accommodate four different plot sizes to meet individual preferences. These comprise 625, 1200, 1500 and 1800 square metres.
Central Facilities within the Estate
* Events centre * Shopping mall * 9-hole golf course along a river * Crèche and primary school * Potable water supply * 24-hour power and LPG gas supply * Central sewage treatment plant * Waste management services
This is nice. They should also develop their water front by building ports that way they can go the lagos way. They have more potential than lagos , all thanks you their larger water front and 4x larger lagos landmass
68816419: PIC1 - New Market in Ogun state PIC2 - New Laderin Workers' Estate, Abeokuta pIC3 - Arepo Housing Estate Development,Ogun state
nice let them continue like this so they can reduce lagos population. With the completion of lagos -abeokuta rail lagos population is going down. People can live luxuriously for cheap rent In abeokuta and work in lagos
It has happened again in nairobi. Alsaahab will continue their perfect work untill they kill every nairobian, destroy their already fragile tourism sector, chase of investors and most importantly render the country useless until the chinese takes it from there
Worry about your less than 10,000km of tarred road after 56 years of independence with an addition of 600km and huge chinese loans that has landed you in debt trap.
It is obvious your govt don't take its people serious
Petrolex Oil & Gas Facility, Ibefun, Odogbolu LG, Ogun State. forget DANGOTE, here is another black Nigerian Mafia making us proud
Nigeria’s Petrolex to float refinery in Ogun, South West Nigeria.
Petrolex Group, an indigenous oil and gas company said it will spend about USD3 billion to construct a petroleum refinery in Ogun state, South West Nigeria.
The company said it is investing to create ePetrolex Mega Oil City to increase the availability of refined petroleum products.
The coming of Petrolex into the refining sector will be a competition to Dangote Refinery, a project planned to be delivered in 2019.
Nigeria has been faced with an inadequate supply of petroleum products which has put the country into series of oil swap agreements with international energy firms to import petroleum products back into the country.
Petrolex might not pose a big competition to Dangote Refinery as the refinery is said to deliver 100,000 barrels per day when completed. According to estimates from PwC, Dangote refinery will deliver 650,000 bpd when it opens for business by mid-2019.
Operating at 50% utilisation, existing refineries (445,000 bpd) are operating at 20% utilization and modular refineries (combined capacity of 200,000 bpd) also come onstream early 2019, operating at 90% utilization.
As to where Petrolex will get the funds to finance such projects, the company said it will fund the project with debt instruments and its revenue from the midstream sector of the oil industry.
Hahahaha take it easy bro kenyans would not like this, they will tell you the whole world will start using electric cars by 2025. Such mumu-minded jealous fellows. Electric cars would be used by everyone in the world by 2025 and saudi arabia wants to build a $20bn refinery In india just as they are building a $1.5bn refinery in Nigeria. All oil producing needs to invest now and make the final money from this sector. I like how we are taking the gas sector seriously cause that would stand firmly when oil finally goes in let's say 50 years from now. Gas sector will fetch us more money than oil and the good news is that it's not going anywhere like oil
I love the first tower, what's the name. By the way can you pls post pictures of cuddle tower completed or not. I would like to take a screenshot of that edifice
Ogun state you are gradually shifting from a village to a city status.keep up these pace and you will swallow half of lagos population owing to the fact that you guys are next door neighbours
I think I understand why smaller countries cry. Below is ogun state with its capital that often times refer to as a glorified village.it is now tired of receiving that title from me and is working with the Malaysian govt to build a city centre for its capital that would span tremendous economic growth in the state. The first video was when the where still discussing the project WHILE THE SECOND VIDEO IS THE CONSTRUCTION SITE AS AT TWO MONTH AGO. The third video is what the city would look like after completion. It's not much but atleast its gets to grow gradually in the future and erase that village title I gave it Enjoy but don't cry

vaxx: You forget tema is expanding not new like lekki. Anyway what is lekki spec? GHANA might have renegotiated a better deal. We saw similar evidence in the train project. .
Lekki deepseaport is 1.5 billion. You just lied. And the capacity is less comparable to tema The acres of land is small as well. I can bet you. When it is fully completed. It might be the biggest port in SUBSAHRAN africa with the exception of Durban which is even contested.
OMG...My bad I totally mistook the cost of of ibom deepseaport for lekki dear sea port. Although ibom deapseaport has just recently started, it cost $2.5BN not $2bn and is expected to be completed by 2021 while badagry deapseaport will cost $2.6bn . Lekki deapseaport capacity is 1.5 million 20 foot equivalent unit (teus) container capacity and it's is expected to grow to 2.7 million and 4.7 million TEUs when the port begins operation. And as for the cost of lekki deapseaport it's actually $1.65bn not $1.5bn. We will earn $560bn from the port .
vaxx: Ghana harbour mps terminal is going life soon. June 28. It is the biggest expansion port in west africa and will only be competing with the like of Durban port in south africa base on cargo size and tonnes... It is build with 1. 5 billion dollars...
Nah I dont think so . Maybe for now it will be the biggest but lekki deepseaport will be ready before December and it will be the biggest in west africa.it cost $2bn
Problemkid1: He bring nonsese article just to cure his Egos
Yeah all i see is desperation so he can feel better about his beloved nairoslum with has so many unpaved roads and large rural forest that is often mistaken as vegetation by its citizens
TayserMahri: 90s to early 2000s were the better days in your country. Its obviously worse now.
Your rant doesn't hold water. You a just a child seeking attention. If you so badly want that attention why not shift to to your slum capital that is known world wide, maybe then you will get want you want. Have fun in your slum and dont forget to contract that deadly inevitable cholera that nightmare has to offer.
