Is this thread in any way aimed at ridiculing the President??

And to the fOOl dude above me....It's highly disappointing he uses "nigga" indiscreetly when it's clearly an offensive/vulgar word.

Mynd44 is this news fake? His link doesn't even work and I thought court date was October 17th. Only Igberertv claims this.

Thats not a structural failure bro,that collapse was caused by erosion,am very familiar with that route ....it's just a few metre from ecobank.
If the bridge deck or peirs collapse then u can say structural.
That road is designed as a flexible pavement,u don't expect it to withstand erosion.

God bless

I chose to import to Lagos because I figured that all these Igbo importers who import to Lagos must have a reason for doing that. I had no experience in importation and was not going to take the risk.

Is like most of the illiterates here don't know what they call Freight quotes and cost. Some many factors contribute to high freight cost like distance, insurance, security of the vessel.

Look at the coast line of Lagos to Europe where most of the things are imported from look at the coastline of Calabar,Onne and Warri you will understand that the Eastern ports are inland ports closer to the rest of Africa But far to Europe,Asia and America where most goods and merchandise are imported. Lagos is more closer to Europe.

Besides the Eastern coastline to other parts of Africa and to Europe is along the Gulf of Guinea that is full of sea pirates along the coast of Somalia.

As a business man why would I not prefer to collect my goods from Lagos and transport through road or rail to other parts of Nigeria than incure a huge freight cost of ships coming down from Western axis down to the Eastern axis.

Why do you think Some business men import Cars and other things to Cotonou and Lome and then bring them through the land border to Nigeria. The Freight cost is simply cheaper because Cotonou and Lome are closer to Europe than Lagos so likewise is Lagos closer to Europe than Calabar,Warri and Onne.

As far as Nigeria is concerned Onne,Calabar and PH ports were constructed majorly for Export of Coal and Crude oil not for Imports.

People that have used Onne will tell you it's simply expensive because of freight cost.

If the FG wanted to marginalize the SS or SE they won't build the ports in the first place. Maybe they would transport the Crude oil to Lagos and then ship it to the World.

This guy. Forced by whom? In 2016 I had to import some books from China. My shipper had both options. Onne and Lagos. I spoke to CFI a clearing agent based in Port Harcourt. They assured me I could import to Onne.

I chose to import to Lagos because I figured that all these Igbo importers who import to Lagos must have a reason for doing that. I had no experience in importation and was not going to take the risk.

What I am trying to say is that I personally found no reason why Onne is not being used.

I sight Lala in the building which means this thread is headed straight for Disneyland.
