Tinubu Secures $600 Million Deal For Nigerian Ports by peekspot(m): 7:05am On Apr 29

President Bola Tinubu has secured a $600m investment from Danish shipping and logistics firm A.P Moller-Maersk, the presidency said on Sunday.

The deal is to help in expanding port infrastructure to accommodate more container shipping services in Nigerian ports.

Chairman of A.P Moller-Maersk, Mr. Robert Maersk Uggla, disclosed the decision during a meeting with President Tinubu on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum Special Meeting on Global Collaboration, Growth and Energy for Development in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Sunday, presidential spokesman Ajuri Ngelale said in a statement.

”We have seen a significant opportunity for Nigeria to cater for larger container ships. Historically, most of the West African coasts are already served by smaller ships. Currently, we see an opportunity to deploy larger ships to Nigeria. To achieve this, we need to expand the port infrastructure, especially in Lagos, where we need a bigger hub for logistics services. The growth potential is hard to quantify,” Ngelale quoted Uggla as saying.

”We believe in Nigeria, and we will invest $600 million in existing facilities and make the ports accommodating for bigger ships.”

On his part, Tinubu appreciated the firm for its contributions to the Nigerian economy.

“We appreciate your business and the contribution you have made and continue to make to our country’s economy over time. We do not take our partners for granted. A bet on Nigeria is a winning bet. It is also a bet that rewards beyond what is obtainable elsewhere,” Tinubu said.

“More investment opportunities are available, and my government has worked on various reforms to encourage investments. We need to encourage more opportunities for revenue expansion and minimize trans-shipments from larger ships to smaller ships.”

Do we have a foreign investment policy at all? I understand making some concessions in certain sectors but it's not every foreigner who promises to invest that we will ass-lick. We should have a policy for controlled FDI in sectors currently above the capacity of local flouting. We should discourage others coming to kill the local industries except they agree to transfer technology in the long run. All said, we need basic infrastructure requisite for development i.e. good road networks, functional healthcare, stable electricity, and an education system that actually produces and develops 21st century -readied human capital.

Money that will enter private pockets and would make Nigeria sell some of its assets at the port and be indebted for others

Lagos is not the only port in Nigeria,they should allow other ports to receive all classes of cargo like Lagos and also invest in their upgrade just like Lagos, the ONITSHA inland river port has already been completed by President Goodluck Jonathan should be concessioned to the state government's port management company so that it can become operational. Every part of Nigeria should be given equal opportunity of development.

Well I wonder how this helps. Last I checked, these small ships usually go back empty which is why we're having the Forex crisis. Aren't we supposed to find ways to fill up these "small" ships as they leave first? undecided
