None can import directly becuz of FGcrippling policy.

State the exact FG policy that is crippling those ports.


How can there be a port owned by FG and FG will deliberately us its own policy to cripple it?

I am waiting for your crippling policy to be stated.

Living4christ:

Lmaoooo.

I have definitely become your nightmare.

By the way, not only will you be buried this year, everything and everybody that knows you will become your source of sorrow this year.

Shango will ruin every member of your family down to the ones in the womb.

Ogun will have his bath with the blood of every single member of your family.

Yemoja will cease every joy in your life.

Ase. Beeni ki o se ri fun e ni odun yii. Idiota.

ERAKAMUS:
That's one of the Beauties of ISLAM.

Is it Islam or stupidity of some people of the religion?

Their wealthy and elite families always send their daughters to the best schools in the world without getting them married off at a ridiculous and embarrassing age. Whereas the stup1d and poor ones will be marrying off their daughters from the womb.

By age 12 that toddler would have given birth and be a mother of someone, when she can even hardly fend for herself.

I listened to a Muslim cleric preaching at a barbing salon and I shook my head. He said people should keep procreating without family planning because God will provide what those children will eat. He said it is a ploy of the western world to curtail the population of Muslims.

No wonder poverty is legendary in the north.

Are these people not ashamed of their barbaric and disgusting acts?

What kind of criminal culture is this?

See who is talking!!!!!!!!

What happened to all the loans you collected and you never completed any of the projects that you borrowed money for.

my question is this.was this so in the 60s? Yes most of trade in Nigeria is focused towards Lagos but has it been always so?people are complaining Lagos is conjested(with dangote refinery and lekki port coming up it would only get worse) but have fg sat down to see how it can lift the burden of the country put on Lagos?

Yes, that is while Govt created Onne, Warri, Calabar and Koko.

Govt cannot force importers to use a particular port. The onus lies on the importers themselves. If the Igbos are truly the power house in importation as they used to claim, they can muster their strength to direct ships to Onne, except their level of importation is worthless.

Perhaps, this has shown that their importation is inconsequential to the economy of Nigeria, except proven otherwise.

RealityShot:
So what's the solution to insecurity?

You think you government can not solve that?

Don't You think the government can impose very low tarriff at onne to foster more trade?
I Remember onne is a trade free zone...

If it is a FTZ, the better. Why are the SE importers still not using it? The truth is most importers will not use it even if the FG is paying them through incentives to use it. Maybe the economy of that region cannot sustain their importation through that port.

Insecurity can only be achieved by the concerted efforts of the leaders and youths of the region and not only through Govt coercion.

Insecurity is a perception that is not easy to correct. Before you can contract any foreigner to do any outside SW and Abuja, do you kn how much extra it will cost in comparison with what same foreigner would have charged for a job in SW and Abuja?

In a simple layman's language, which might be easier for you to understand -- you are paying premium for the insecurity.

That is the reason we should always be careful of our actions when we are shouting we are fighting for our rights under the name of militancy, kidnapping, robbery etc.

Eh ya and I warned you yesterday.

You are now dead and Kanu is still eating beans.

Ordinary legal representation he cannot even iron out and the Lunatic Bleaching Yellow Pawpaw aka "our Dilector " wanted to wage a war against Nigeria.

Mschewwwwwww.

Ipod is now family business!! Wonders shall never end.

How may times have you heard of container piracy at onne?
Maeserk lines use it to date without issues.

And all these your points..
If you were the presidents.. Can you not overcome them to improve the lives of your people?

Or at least to reduce the dumorage costs to your Government?

What is "dumorage"?

How is "dumorage" a cost to Govt?

RealityShot:
Yes.. Good question.. Y is it so expensive to deliver to onne?

Kidnapping etc are all recent events...

It is so expensive to deliver to Onne because of the following:

1. The importers had a choice of filling destination port themselves and they wrote Lagos with their own pen.

2. Th hazards for liners to berth in Onne is too much and it is not commensurate with the reward. Hence, captain decline carrying cargoes meant for such dangerous water. Anyone that will berth there will be at a higher cost.

3. Due to the fact that more ships are not berthing there, the charges might cost more because the cost of running a port is almost th same whether the port is in Zungeru or Sambisa or Kandahar. It is those small number of berthing ships that will bear the brunt of the total operational cost of the port. Hence the charges.

This will decrease greatly if only the importers from SE can simply fill Onne as destination port, can insure the lives of the crew and pay premium for the risk the ship is undertaken.

an average yoruba man thinks investors are only white men. wake me up when a yoruba town that is not a state capital achieve the economic relevance of Aba

Yinmu.

We are talking of FDI, this one is thinking about under the pillow or piggy hole investment.

Smh.

The only negatives I do not like about these early morning jogging exercises are:

1. it will make more people to emigrate to our blessed region

2. More investors will also relocate their businesses to our regions.

3. Incoming investors will not consider the secessionists region for future investments.

Politics ko politricks ni.

Just tell the so called importers and killers of our economy to make the port of destination for their goods to be Onne and the shipping lines will comply.

However, they all know it will come at a higher cost to them because the shipping lines will factor in the possibility of kidnapping, piracy and even death.

OP change the title to "Massob and Ipod resume early morning jogging exercise".

Warned them - for the ones that love themselves, they should not block Federal Govt Highway. They should keep their jogging to the roads constructed by their state govts.

He who has ears, let him listen to what the spirit is saying now.

Blowing up pipelines further pollute the environment of Niger Delta and the attendant effects on the people of ND.

The search for the criminals will take place on your soil and the battle with the criminals will be on your soil and destruction and loss of lives will be on your soil.

Dokubo made billions and invested in other countries and Tompolo has made billions without remembering the south south people from other ethnicities. Wise up.

..... and some id1ots will be shouting with hunting.

Rest in peace gallant soldier. I hope your blood will not cry for vengeance on the children and lineage of beneficiaries of armsgate scandal.

Please transfer the corrupt the among the judges to the remotest part of Nigeria.

Corrupt people will think twice before going there to collect their dubious injunctions.

Another commendable and worthy production from SS.

Ola17:
They are innocent until proven guilty by the law courts.

I hear you.

Th same useless Nigerian Judiciary that found Ibori innocent is the same giving dubious bails to the lower of our commonwealth and some sycophants ar screaming "rule of law" instead of "rule of bought injunctions".

Why was. Ibori not given bail in UK be was finally convicted or there is no rule of there?

Maybe they are talking of Monday 18th of January 2050.

Your ultimatum no dey finish?

What happened to release him within 3days of hi arrest,7days, 3weeks, by October, by November, again by December and now by Monday of 2050 again?

PDP of today is EQUALS to CORRUPTION .

Nothing more nothing less.

THE OHANEZE Ndigbo, the apex Igbo socio-cultural organization, has pleaded with President Muhammadu Buhari to release the detained director of Radio Biafra and leader of Independent People of Biafra, IPOB, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu to Igbo leaders, assuring that they would make him realize the futility of continuing his pro- Biafra stance.

Chairman of state presidents of Ohaneze in the seven Igbo -speaking states, Dr. Chris Eluemunoh told reporters in Awka that Igbo leaders were equally concerned with the security challenges posed by the activities of the pro-Biafra group, adding that once Kanu was released to Igbo leaders, they would sit him down and discuss with him and make him realize the negative effects of continuing with efforts to actualize the Biafra Republic.

According to Eluemunoh, a lot of discussions on how to tackle the issue of insecurity in the country were going on among Igbo leaders, adding that they believe that Kanu’s issue could be better handled and resolved if he was released to enable Igbo leaders get involved in the matter.

He said: “IPOB and MASSOB (the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra) can operate as pressure groups and not as secessionist groups. Many Igbo people are residing in other parts of Nigeria and there is no way they can abandon their investments to return to the East in the name of Biafra.”

He however commended IPOB for ending their protests that grounded many cities in the East last year, assuring them that they would benefit more if they adopted dialogue in their approach to national issues.

The Ohaneze leader also spoke on the recent statement credited to the Enugu -based Reverend Father Ejike Mbaka in which he was quoted as saying that some people were planning to assassinate President Buhari, describing such a statement as reckless.

He added: “Mbaka should face his evangelism work as a priest rather than creating panic in the country. If he received any revelation, the better thing for him to do is to keep it to himself and pray to God to avert such a thing. The president is the Commander -in -Chief of the country’s armed forces and is capable of securing himself and we see the statement by Mbaka as a distraction.”

He said that Ohaneze supports the president’s anti corruption war, adding that by the way he is going, sanity would soon return to the country’s socio -economic life.

Pavore9:
How many people locked up in prisons for years across the country without a trial has he gone to defend their rights? Or are they not also Nigerians who should also benefit from the rule of law?

Lawyers like Adegboruwa and Ozekhome are rogues. There are thousands of Nigerians unlawfully locked up in various prisons for bailable offences and they have never for once deemded it fit to carry their rule of law campaign to assist those hapless ones.

It is only the looters with resources to hire 10 SANs at once for their criminal acts that they would be fighting for, in a bid to get more recognition.

They should know that the blood of those soldiers that died unjustly for this nation and the spirits of those children that are now orphans, will cry for vengeance on their children and their children's children.

If non-adherence to rule of law will bring about the death of the cancerous corruption that has eaten into the fibres of this nation, SO BE IT.

Jonathan was busy shouting ''Rule of Law'' and was looting our country with his cronies, sycophants, stooges and fronts to bankruptcy level. If taht is the 'RULE OF LAW'', it will not be well with the rule of law.

#istandwithPMBoncorruption

All supporters of -- looters of our commonwealth and the recalcitrant yam-eating goats -- will have a change of heart when they realise that:

1. their children does not have good schools to go to, but the children of the looters are in the best schools abroad.
2. they do not have good hospitals to go to, but looters can afford to treat mere headache in the best hospital anywhere in the world.
3. they do not have good roads to ply, but looters have PJs to fly to anywhere in the world,,
4. the monthly feeding budget of the dogs of the looters is more than the annual feeding budget of the sycophantic wailers.
5. the children of the looters can afford not to work anywhere and still live large till their 10th generation, whereas the wailers can not even afford the next meal.

No matter the Ethnicity, Religion, Colour and Party -- Let us all say NO TO CORRUPTION. It is starting from the top and it will surely cascade down. This is the only way we could have avoided a bloody revolution, which would have been from bottom to top.

#istandwithPMBoncorruption.

NMA should delist any doctor that picks up the appointment.

With that, Aregbe will not have a choice than to turn to quack doctors for recruitment.

I can imagine the propaganda APC would have ran, if it was a PDP Gov misbehaving and misruling a state the way Aregbe is doing.

No wonder this defender of looters of our national wealth was kidnapped.
