Please fact-check me. The port in which the Nigerian government has invested the most money is Onne Port, not Lagos Port. Onne has seen twice the investment that Lagos Port has witnessed.

In fact, Rivers State has two major seaports: Port Harcourt Port and Onne Port. Onne Port alone is responsible for 65% of Nigeria's maritime export.

If Lagos is rich because of ports, then Rivers State is meant to be wealthier than Lagos going by that flawed logic.

Lagos State is neither a parasite to the Federal Government nor impeding other states.

The biggest investments in Lagos are not made by the Federal Government but by the Lagos State Government. Good governance at the state level is why Lagos is prosperous.

For example, the most expensive infrastructure in Lagos is the $21 billion Lekki Free Trade Zone. The Lagos State Government built it. Because of that infrastructure, Alhaji Aliko Dangote chose Lagos State as the site for his $19 billion Dangote Refinery, which was built at the Lekki Free Trade Zone.

If your state had built a Free Trade Zone instead of waiting for the Federal Government, it, too, would have had powerful private sector investments.

The next most capital-intensive project in Lagos is the $6 billion Eko Atlantic City project. It was built by the Lagos State Government along with their private sector partners and is now the most expensive commercial real estate in Africa.

If any state government wants, they can do something similar. Eko Atlantic City was built on land reclaimed from the ocean. Many states have land, but they do not build new cities. You cannot blame Lagos for their lack of vision.

The next most capital-intensive project in Lagos is the combined Lagos Blue, Red and Green lines, worth $5 billion.

Again, Lagos State built this alone, without Federal Government participation. And any other state can do the same. That they refused to do so is not for lack of money or land. They have not done so because of a lack of visionary leadership.

Lagos generated almost 50% of the total VAT generated by Nigerian states at ₦2.78 trillion. The South-West geopolitical zone, as a unit, contributed ₦3.11 trillion in VAT.

Yet, Lagos only got back ₦460 billion, just 16% of what it contributed.

Rather than being the source of your state's poverty, Lagos is the reason for your state's prosperity.

Lagos State pays its workers above minimum wage and does not owe salaries.

Where else in Africa can you find a metropolis that will accept your children into its public schools without first checking whether or not you pay state and local government taxes? Where else will you benefit from state-subsidised railway services that crisscross the state like the red and blue lines do? You can leave your village anywhere in Nigeria and go to Ikeja General Hospital, where you will see a doctor, courtesy of the Lagos State Government and the late Mobolaji Bank Anthony.

Not only has Lagos been paying above minimum wage to its civil servants, but the State Government does not discriminate in its hiring policy. They have Hausa, Igbo, Ijaw, Efik, Tiv and other civil servants in Lagos. As we speak, there are free soup kitchens in every local government of Lagos serving free food to whoever walks in, whether or not they are from Lagos.

If you want a Nepali-style protest in Nigeria, #StartFromYourStateofOrigin, not Lagos.

I have pasted it below. Enjoy

Lagos Is Not Responsible For Your State's Poverty. Do Your Nepali Protest In Your State

Please fact-check me. The port in which the Nigerian government has invested the most money is Onne Port, not Lagos Port. Onne has seen twice the investment that Lagos Port has witnessed. 

In fact, Rivers State has two major seaports: Port Harcourt Port and Onne Port. Onne Port alone is responsible for 65% of Nigeria's maritime export.

If Lagos is rich because of ports, then Rivers State is meant to be wealthier than Lagos going by that flawed logic.  

Lagos State is neither a parasite to the Federal Government nor impeding other states. 

The biggest investments in Lagos are not made by the Federal Government but by the Lagos State Government. Good governance at the state level is why Lagos is prosperous. 

For example, the most expensive infrastructure in Lagos is the $21 billion Lekki Free Trade Zone. The Lagos State Government built it. Because of that infrastructure, Alhaji Aliko Dangote chose Lagos State as the site for his $19 billion Dangote Refinery, which was built at the Lekki Free Trade Zone. 

If your state had built a Free Trade Zone instead of waiting for the Federal Government, it, too, would have had powerful private sector investments. 

The next most capital-intensive project in Lagos is the $6 billion Eko Atlantic City project. It was built by the Lagos State Government along with their private sector partners and is now the most expensive commercial real estate in Africa. 

If any state government wants, they can do something similar. Eko Atlantic City was built on land reclaimed from the ocean. Many states have land, but they do not build new cities. You cannot blame Lagos for their lack of vision. 

The next most capital-intensive project in Lagos is the combined Lagos Blue, Red and Green lines, worth $5 billion. 

Again, Lagos State built this alone, without Federal Government participation. And any other state can do the same. That they refused to do so is not for lack of money or land. They have not done so because of a lack of visionary leadership. 

Lagos generated almost 50% of the total VAT generated by Nigerian states at ₦2.78 trillion. The South-West geopolitical zone, as a unit, contributed ₦3.11 trillion in VAT. 

Yet, Lagos only got back ₦460 billion, just 16% of what it contributed. 

Rather than being the source of your state's poverty, Lagos is the reason for your state's prosperity. 

Lagos State pays its workers above minimum wage and does not owe salaries. 

Where else in Africa can you find a metropolis that will accept your children into its public schools without first checking whether or not you pay state and local government taxes? Where else will you benefit from state-subsidised railway services that crisscross the state like the red and blue lines do? You can leave your village anywhere in Nigeria and go to Ikeja General Hospital, where you will see a doctor, courtesy of the Lagos State Government and the late Mobolaji Bank Anthony. 

Not only has Lagos been paying above minimum wage to its civil servants, but the State Government does not discriminate in its hiring policy. They have Hausa, Igbo, Ijaw, Efik, Tiv and other civil servants in Lagos. As we speak, there are free soup kitchens in every local government of Lagos serving free food to whoever walks in, whether or not they are from Lagos. 

If you want a Nepali-style protest in Nigeria, #StartFromYourStateofOrigin, not Lagos.

As much as it makes my stomach churn, I strongly believe that the negative propaganda which puts the SW and the NE at logger heads with the SE and the SS with claims that the former two zones are deliberately impeding socioeconomic development in the latter two zones and the rest of Nigeria have the potential to backfire on the PO campaign for 2027.

Slick videos narrated by either foreigners or by Nigerians who pronounce Calabar as Calibar and River Niger (Naija) as River Nijear) do not sound credible to me.

One can not win a Presidential election in Nigeria by campaigning on removing resources for infrastructure  development and maintenance from from one region of Nigeria
and use these same resources to develop and upgrade existing infrastructure in other zones of Nigeria. This is a growth strategy by cannibalization
rather than one based on improved economic climate which would generate more resources that would enable the President to build more lasting infrastructure while maintaining and upgrading  those that we currently have. 

The FGN should put more resources  into existing ports and other infrastructure development in the SS and the SE. This will require  extracting more wealth and resources through more (not less) resources into the existing ports in SW , SE and the SS to make them even more efficient.

This is a better approach than one of robbing Peter to Pay Paul, which seems to be the central message
of Peter Obi’s campaign at the moment. I truly pray that he changes his tune.

If I were a Nigerian citizen from the NE and NC,
and watch videos with the central message of removing resources from one region to only two regions the SE and the SS, I would have to think twice before casting my ballot for such a candidate.

A good candidate should have a manifesto that promises to be inclusive of all Nigerians (regardless of where they live) in the distribution of public resources, spend more of its resources in the currently marginalized regions of 
Nigeria without neglecting others.

GEJ was President of Nigeria for 3 + years.
He had many prominent Nigerians from the SE and the SS along with those from all other regions in his cabinet. Why did he not embark on projects to dredge the River Niger and provide more resources to develop the two ports PH and Onne located the SS and one in Onitsha, not to mention completing the 2nd Niger Bridge.

The answer to the above question is this. GEJ would not have had the intention to marginalize his own region of Nigeria. The limiting factor was most likely that his government (just like all preceding governments) could not find enough resources to build  and maintain existing infrastructure after meeting all of the required obligations of the FGN (net of the billions stolen from the public purse under his watch). The lack of progress on these projects were not due to an intentional decision to marginalize the SE and the SS. These were lies built on Conspiracy theories. 

This was also true for OBJ as it was true for Buhari. 
Money does not fall like manna from heaven. 

One of the criticisms of PO’s two term Governorship of Anambra state was that he did not build a single life changing infrastructure that would have helped his citizens while declaring surplus budgets in each fiscal year under his watch.

How can the majority of the Nigerian electorate put their trust for major infrastructure projects like the existing ports in Onitsha, PH and Onne located in the SE and the SS and completing other ongoing projects like the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway?

PO keeps on complaining about BAT taking to many foreign loans. Where would PO find all the funds he would need to embark on new projects while maintaining existing infrastructure all over Nigeria?

Notwithstanding the above criticism of PO’s current campaign strategy, I will support the success of any   sensible infrastructure his administration embarks on,  if wins and assumes the Presidency of Nigeria  in 1987.

I really do not care if the President is  of Martian ancestry as long as he/she delivers on his /her promise to Make Nigeria Great!😊 😀😄😃

Nebu,

I tend not to bother watching or following links because of how sensitive and critical my phone is to me when I'm on the move.

I'm sure that we discussed these issues many years ago herein in the forum.

Onitsha port, as an inland port, can never be as commercial as those on the Atlantic seaboard. No amount of dredging can allow big ships to berth and safely navigate over River Niger. That is the simple fact. Big ships will go where business is, that is simply the economic fact to shipping lines.
Calabar and PH on the other hand, because of their location needs regular dredging and de-silting to maintain them as a deep port for berthing. These are the simple facts. Any other reasons being put forward is secondary.

There is no reason, as postulated a long time ago, for an enterprising individual or conglomerate of individuals to form a shipping line that uses large flat-bottom badges to transport containers from the offshore deep sea up the shallower river Niger estuary into River Niger itself.

Let those who always like to lean towards conspiracy theories do so. And those who are practically-inclined and business-minfed heed my advice.

Regards,

Femi Olajide

DOK,

I believe the date in the excerpt below is a typo or is it a freighted statement?

"...Notwithstanding the above criticism of PO’s current campaign strategy, I will support the success of any sensible infrastructure his administration embarks on, if wins and assumes the Presidency of Nigeria in 1987....". - DOK.

Peter Obi is just clawing at straws to stay afloat. He is not a seasoned politician or strategist and neither is he an experienced technocrat or tactician.
He picks and addresses issues singularly without looking at overall picture. He is a mediocre.

First of all, technical and financial issues are the primary reasons hampering commercialisation of the PH, Onne, Calabar and Onitsha ports.

First of all, ships will berth where it is most economically viable for them.
No investor will put their money into a business with adverse cost-benefit ratio.

No one will invest where you need to dredge and de-silt waterways every couple of years when there are naturally deep sea ports around the corner without need for dredging for decades.

If the business and the facilities are conducive in those ports, commercial business will automatocally thrive. Money follows business to wherever profit can be made.

Sadly, money doesn't see businesses making profit in those ports at the moment.

With the new Lagos-Calabar coastal road, the calabar port will be given a new lease of life.
Container ships are getting bigger and not smaller to be more effective and efficient. Those ships cannot operate in those shallow waters.
What can operate in the shallow waters of the Niger estuary and inland river are flat-bottom barges who are able to transport containers from high sea to hinterland.

Femi:

In my mind and for real what I wrote was 2027.
My AI spell checker changed it to 1987 as I was editing the post to improve on the syntax so it could be more readable and understood.

Thanks for catching this error. Nigeria mostly like had a military government in 1987. No Nigerian including PO, your self and myself would have qualified to run for the Presidency in 1987.

My sincere apologies to the conspiracy theorists who might have concluded that by imploring Peter Obi, to run for the Presidency in 1987, I was implying that he is a man whose time has come and gone.

I am older than PO. If his time has come and gone logically mine has gone too. This is impossible as I still consider myself a young viral man hoping, if our Almighty God wishes for 3 or more peaceful and healthy decades ahead. 😀😀😀😀

Bye,

Ola

Femi Olajide,
If you didn't watch any shared videos or read posted pieces, I suggest that you don't respond to them, since you might comment off point, in distortion, in repetition, or in abject ignorance of the subject matter. The two videos are brief, but are historically and factually constructed in objectivity. Had you watched them, you likely would have not responded at all -- as the points you raised were addressed therein.

Dr Kassim, in his rejoinder elsewhere, has some misgivings about the video's pronunciation of indigenous names, which suggests to him that the producers of the videos are non-Nigerians. I don't share videos from rabble rousers or tribal chauvinists, I share stuffs from which we can learn something objectively. The creators of the videos I share about Nigeria are bankable intellectuals who address whatever matter they address with stringent adherence to scholarly requirements (except videos about comedy, music, or purely political commentary). The creators of these videos about the seaports are Nigerians, but I believe they deployed AI in reading the text, hence the off bit pronunciation of indigenous names or words. 

Their bottom-line is that federal government policies are responsible for the comatose nature of the seaports everywhere else in Nigeria but Lagos. This has been factual since after the war in 1970; the first reason for undermining the seaports outside of Lagos was to ensure that Igbos didn't use them to import arms and restart Biafra. This policy was sound initially but should have ceased by 1980. To the contrary, once Yoruba intelligentsia understood how prosperous it made Yoruba land, they ensured (through Obasanjo 1.0; Babangida; Abacha was leaning towards diversifying the ports, and Obasanjo 2.0) and ensured that it remained the policy of the Nigerian state (this is not a criticism of Yoruba intelligentsia, to the contrary, it was brilliant of them for recognizing the type of One Nigeria that set in after the war in 1970). 

Igbos have clamored for the diversification of the seaports since the 1980s (progressive Yorubas were also part of the campaign to unclog the Lagos based seaports by reviving the ones in the SS and putting into functionality the inland one at Onitsha) but other non-Igbo and non-progressive Yorubas have fully caught the buzz due to Yoruba's inchoate abusing and heckling of non-Yoruba Nigerians over Lagos. A revival of these seaports would take a heavy burden off Lagos' shoulders (especially in population) and create opportunities elsewhere; it will make entrepreneurial life and purchasing power easier  and highways safer for road users. It has been a disgrace that a country as huge as Nigeria, and with excellent access to the sea, uses only Lagos-based seaports for at least 90% of its export and import activities.    

Cheers.

Dr Kassim,
I doubt that you watched the videos that I shared, else you wouldn't have drawn some of the conclusion you drew from them. Nothing in any of them cavasses for abandoning support for the seaports in Lagos for the revival of the ones in SESS, to the contrary, the theses of the videos expose the foolishness of Nigerian policy makers in concentrating support for the seaports in Lagos while purposefully abandoning the ones outside of Lagos. 

Yes, there is an Akwa Ibom young fellow in the video (he is an expert in Maritime Science) who apportioned blame to the SW and NW for the situation, yet he never suggested taking resources away from Lagos. He spoke as an expert; his theme was/is that other seaports should be in full operation alongside those in Lagos.

Third, this is not a political campaign matter and no one mentioned Peter Obi nor has Peter Obi opined as you concluded, so I don't know why you brought his name into this. Olola, you might be secret Peter Obi hater -- going by the way you attribute things that he did not say to him and the way you quickly inject his name in matters of which he has nothing to do. 

You asked an important question about former president Jonathan. Without going into detail, let it suffice that liberalizing the seaports (away from Lagos' hegemonic hold) would have been his priority had he survived the 2015 reelection attempt. Why do you think that Yoruba intelligentsia staked everything to defeat him, as they did in defeating Biafra? GEJ was not going to marginalize Lagos/Yoruba, he was going to remove the mafia-like hold on seaport operations in Nigeria, which has favored Lagos/Yoruba since 1970. President Buhari tried to do the liberalizing of the seaports, with appointing Hadiza Bala Usman (an acolyte of El-Rufai's) as NPA Chairman. You need to read her memoir, "Stepping On Toes -- My Odyssey at the Nigerian Ports Authority", to understand how Yoruba intelligentsia (of which Tinubu is a topnotch party) made her tenure useless, and forced Buhari to fire her (he refused) or to not reappoint her (he agreed). Do you still wonder where Tinubu's feud with El- Rufai began? 

Cheers!

Nebu,

I guess that you're right to that extent that one shouldn't comment definitively on what one hasn't seen or read. It's like taking a shot in the dark.

That was why I was not definitive. These argument come on and off on these fora for one to know the usual reasons given. And I daresay, I wasn't really off the mark at all.

What are the policies that deter the use and commercialisation of those ports?

I will reiterate that there are no policy deviation or disparity between those ports and the ones in Lagos. Nigeria have always had the same and uniform policy for all it's seaports.

As long as the seaport is open for business, and all are under concession to private firms right now, it's in their interest to drum up available business for their concessioned seaports.

Ship operators will berth where it is economically and physically viable for them. The federal government cannot force ship operators to use one port or the other.

Money will follow business to wherever profit can be made. Obviously, if money can be made from these ports, shipping operators will not shun them. Fact.

The Lagos port is a natural deep sea port that doesn't need regular dredging, hence low maintenance. All other inland and eastern ports are shallow seaports that need regular dredging, hence high maintenance.

Cargo ships are getting bigger and bigger ships require deep ports to berth. That's common sense.

On cost-benefit analysis, the Lagos port offer a more attractive cost to benefit ratio than those other ones.

If the federal government policy is still bad for any other port apart from Tin can and Apapa, why is the new commissioned privately-owned Lekki deep seaport already doing so well?

Conspiracy theories abound. Importation of arms can take place at any port. The ones in the east will be manned by Nigerian Customs, Immigration, Coastal guard, NIMASA and other security tasked with security. So, why should that be an issue?

People will always see vision where they expect to see one, even though none exist.


Regards,

Femi Olajide

Nebu et al:

My own response to Nebu's accusation is this modified copycat headliner from
Abraham Madu this morning:

"I have neither the time nor the energy to hate "

as both are consumed with engaging on positive ideas when I am awake and positive dreams
when I am asleep.

My critique of PO's current early 2027 campaign is from watching the entire video and
others and reading between the lines. Even though PO was not featured in the video
the next two videos lined up for me to watch on Youtube featured PO as the headliner.

This coincidence could not have happened by accident.

When I asked for confirmation of the allegations that a segment  of the newly
constructed first 30 km of the Coastal Highway has been washed into the Atlantic ocean,
no one in this or any other media that I posted my request to has posted a convincing picture or 
video of missing portions of the brick pavement of the 6 lane express way. I deliberately did not
ask to see the chunks of bricks floating in the salt water of the Atlantic Ocean as the Laws of
Physics would not allow this to happen.  EmojiEmojiEmojiEmoji
Yet some folks claimed that the incidenof floating slabs of brick road pavement happened,

These and other allegations against the current government
including but not limited to the President purchasing a yacht and a brand new airplane for himself,
and taking too many holidays are some of the 'indictable' offenses or evidence of incompetence some 
PO's supporters are citing to justify the impeachment of BAT even before 2027.

The presenter of the video under discussion does nt have to literally say that developent funds be shifted
from the Apapa Port in Lagos to the ports in PH, Onne and Onitsha as the entire premise of the video was that some Yoruba elites 
I assume as far back as 1960 have been plotting to deny developments for the ports in PH, Onne and Onitsha
while diverting most of the funds to Lagos.

My point was that you can walk and chew gum at the same time upgrade the ports in the SS and SE while
at the same time ensuring that the Apapa Wharf becomes more efficient with retrofitting that would allow new technology.
There is no need to robe Peter to Pay Paul. 

Nigerians will benefit from constructing and upgrading our ports.

One does not have to be an overt or closet hater of PO to criticize him personally, his policies
or his campaign.

Fact checking is NOT hatred.

Bye,

Ola
