Why Do South Easterners Desperately Want Lagos Decongested? by Biodun556(m): 3:56pm On Aug 09
Nairaland news that a large container ship Bert in Onne generates a lot of comments that that would help descongest Lagos. How?

I don't understand how decongested Lagos will make South East grow when growing Abuja, Rivers, Oyo, Ogun and Kano have no negative impact on Lagos.

The sky is wide enough for birds to fly without disturbing each other.


South Easterners should work on their states without negative interest against others

So trading and manufacturers wanting a port close to home to function is an attack on Lagos?

What do you think would happen to Lagos if online calabar port is active

God has blessed everybody from every tribe
If we go by your myopic view, yoruba agberos, destitute etc shouldn't be littered everywhere in lagos
You mean someone is jealous of these useless guys loittering around oshodi?

Yes every tribe has those set of people, so sharrap nothing like God blessing a tribe (minus the jews)

Congested Lagos doesn't concern anybody and decongested Lagos won't benefit the igbos. Except you people want to bring IPOB terrorism to spoil the good things in Lagos.

Go and develop your region and stop giving excuses

Decongesting Lagos would benefit the Indigenes. Their would be less strain on infrastructures, health care, educational and health care facilities. I feel that's a good thing.

Can you define decongestion? Is decongestion of Lagos not good for Lagos? Easterners always rejoice when ships come to the eastern ports cause they will save the money that will be used to transport their containers from Lagos to east

Nobody is stopping you from using what ever ports you want

But stop thinking that once you progress Lagos will suffer. Nothing like that.

Oyo Ogun and Abuja are growing at a faster pace yet Lagos keeps developing

Lagos is blessed naturally by nature by having access to the coast, just like many other southern states with access to the ocean. The South East is landlocked, however, the south east governors can come together and dredge the Niger river. So they can have some sort of river port.

Lagos did it with the Lekki port and the upcoming Badagry port as well. You don't have to wait for the FG.

An example of a river port from around the world is the river Mersey that flows from Liverpool in the west coast of UK to Manchester in the hinterlands.

No Lagos official or governor has ever claimed that Lagos is congested

The growing population of Lagos is good for commercial activities and internal revenue

So leave congested Lagos to Lagos govt. They are not complaining. If you feel Lagos is congested for you, leave!

How come you guys don't get it? Once is much closer to the South East than Lagos. If a South Easterner wants to import/Export products, Onne makes far more sense to go to, which will help decongest Lagos

What's hard to understand here?

There is actually a law that certain goods must come from Lagos

Go read it up

Chemicals, pharmaceutical, electrical, fabrics, food all must come from Lagos

Stop being ignorant

65% of containers end up in ABA and Onitsha u think they would choose Lagos over closer ports?

Is Lagos sea port not always congested with uncleared containers?
Shipping else where will decongest Lagos sea port not in a negative way anyway as it will make doing business much easier in Lagos.

Who cares about that... The problem is this u guys are so myopic about this oil n gas thing

ABA alone can make 2 times oil and gas income with garment and leather industry and create employment for 5 million people and compete with Vietnam and Bangladesh

The idiots making policies have made it impossible by banning the import of fabrics and leather that would make ABA people competitive

I honest want Nigeria to offer igbos independence in exchange for the oil and gas in igbo land for 20 years..

Every time oil oil oil

If it is port congestion, lagos state government has taking care of that by opening new lekki deap seaports and badagry seaport nearly completed

Tell your state Governors to do same instead of telling stories

You're a big time liar. Importers and exporters are free to choose which ever ports they want. If Aba is what you claim it is, igbo manufacturers would prefer Onne port for all their imports.

If 2023 election never happened I won't know Yoruba have other futures like lie, deceit, envy, propagandist, and most of all chronic haters. I genuinely thought it was only coward not knowing you people were hiding all along. Same way people are divided in religion is the same way you are divided in progress of the country. I cant find a simply adjective to qualify the yorubas cos you are diverse in abject negativity. If y'all are busy with your life why would you be concerned of which Igboman said Lagos is no man's land. If you are not careful you will turn Lagos like England that is currently facing racial profiling. You better be careful what you wish for....
