That doesn't mean that it can't be located in bayelsa.. abia state government owns palm plantations in badagry Lagos. .. the same people that preach 1 nigeria can't practice it... a whole government can't be confident enough to setup an institution in a place more viable...hmmmmmm

Er0ticAngela:
This is a very good news. The project should remain in Lagos State. If the argument for the decongestion of Lagos holds water, then the project should be relocated to either Ogun state or Ondo state both in the SouthWest, both states also have access to the Atlantic Ocean and crude oil deposits

Jonathan should enjoin his Niger Delta kinsmen to build such for them too in Bayelsa state. Mr Ladi Jadesinmi's project SHALL REMAIN IN THE SOUTH WEST

How will they move the project. It is a private sector driven project, Lagos state Govt is one of the shareholders in the project.

The company handling the project is LADOL.


LADOL means Lagos Deep Offshore Logistics

http://www.ladolfreezone.com/



The project is done by LADOL, the shareholders are institutional investors, foreign investors and Lagos state government. FG came into project in the last minute through NPA, when they saw how viable the project will be due to the scrambling by foreign investors for ownership in LADOL.

I don't see anywhere in d right up dat says its own by Yoruba couples
Now leaving dat let's assume its own by Yoruba couples and u rightly said it should b in their land now tell me, oil is located in d Niger Delta yet its ministries, in fact everything related to oil is either locate in abuja or in Lagos except d refineries in ph and warri
now tell, before d discovery of oil 50% Derivation was used in Nigeria (cocoa and groundnut comes to mind) why was that changed upon d discovery of oil?
Is there Justice in dat?
Be honest and don't b bias, are d rest of Nigeria being fair to d Niger Delta people with all this?

That is left to the shareholders which include Lagos State Govt, Jadesinmis, Foreign Investors, and Institutional Investors to decide and not through a fiat by an outgoing President.


As am matter of fact the site for the project was LASG contribution to LADOL, FG was not an original a shareholder of LADOL but became a shareholder through NPA when they saw how viable the company will be as a result of scrambling by foreigners and institutional investors for shares and ownership of LADOL

Good decision....
What a pity to those that made a clueless man like this their role model....
But as for me that handsome boy from Daura is my role model....

Definitely you are too lazy to read up. Google is everybody's friend. Kindly read up on the history of this country.

Point of correction, there is nothing like "our ministries". As the constitution stands today, all the ministries belong to FG and FG is our collective property. By default all ministries must be located in Abuja.

Someone abolished the region and centralised all the power at the federal level. With that action, he took resource control away from all regions and gave it to federal government without thinking of the future implications on the generations yet unborn. That person is Ironsi.

Some people hijacked power and saw the advantage in the new system for their part of the country and they capitalised fully on it. That is the northerners.

Oil companies have the right to chose wherever there HQ want to be. Even Barrack Obama cannot order them to relocate to anywhere. Are you aware that the British Barclays Bank is contemplating moving his HQ away from UK because of excessive taxation. The same way militancy, kidnapping and insecurity in general drove the oil giants and oil servicing companies away from ND.

Min of ND, Min of Petroleum and other related government agencies must be located where the seat of government is. That is why they are in Abuja. NDDC is in ND, because it is parastatal strictly dedicated to your region.

Way forward.

1. GEJ missed the golden opportunity with the National Jamboree he was calling Confab. He ought to have lobbied his way through the National Assembly for the amendment of the constitution to recognise referendum, for a confab resolution to be binding.

2. At the Confab, we must all support regionalism. With regionalism, your much sort after resource control comes automatically. Also note that all the income being generated for FG in SW through taxation, VAT, petroleum tax, custom and excise duty will also revert to SW strictly.

To make the resource control more acceptable to all, a graduated increment of percentage to be allocated to region producujg such resources can be fashioned out.

We shall all pay certain percentage to FG for the running of the central government.

Each regions can decide to create 20states and 500 LGs within their region. It's none of anybody's biz.

Crying for Biafra or Upper Zambezi is dead on arrival at international level. That is a fact. After some years with regionalism we can all call for referendum on separation. First thing first, we need to amend the constitution before conducting any meaningful confab.

I am beginning to see GEJ as clueless! What was GEJ doing for 6yrs that he could not give his state an airport. He could not even deliver this same oil project to his oil rich state! Is it now at the eleventh hour that he can achieve it? He was even clueless to his own people!

I am sorry but GEJ has lived up to the word-CLUELESS.

Before you insult me, I was a member of TAN that went to campaign in UK and also a die-hard GEJ fan.

Lushore1:


This is 500million dollars businees we are talking about and im sure the owner of the company would have considered other places before deciding citing this project in lagos. Abia state would not have cited their oil plantation company in badagry just for the sake of it aswell. I hope you know Business is about making profit...

JoeCutie:
These people are sick in the head. Why would they stop that relocation? Lagos is so congested and overpopulated and needs to be decongested. Again, there's this monopoly of industrialization and development in Nigeria. Everything is in Lagos, why? All the things that bring about development: The notable seaports, airport, industries, firms and establishments of high standard... Why only Lagos?

They might think that GEJ is trying to save something for his people at the eleventh hour, so there's the need to stop him, but honestly, for Nigeria to develop, it's high time we started spreading industrialization to all the parts of the country and not just Lagos. We have to do what we have to do.

I don't know why these people think with their anus, and excrete via their head. The problem with our high placed officials is that they DO NOT think and do things for the greater good of the greatest number. That's how to achieve something good. Misplaced priorities everywhere in this damn country! Rubbish!

Crispels:





The Project belongs to a Yoruba man,called Mr Jaiyesinmi. Let us force our brothers from the south south,who has embezzled billions to the detriment of their people,to come and invest home,too. Its lugubrious that we keep overdeveloping Lagos,yet,we want to breakaway. If Nigeria breaks today, the investments in Lagos today alone,will survive the Yorubas for several years. Be wise.

What LADOL is constructing is a logistics base/FPSO IIntegration yard.It was brought about by the Total Egina FPSO contract won by Samsung Heavt Industries. The location of LADOL makes it a feasible place because of the water draught.
Google is, and will always be your friend.Consult the oracle first before making assumptions.

doctokwus:

The self centred lots who were licking GEJ's arse and d few other sycophants feeding from the crumbs of his table knew,but purposely didn't bring it up because they were getting their own tummies filled up to d detriment of the Igbos.
God has proved greater than them and has foiled a supposed alliance built on deceit and mischief.

OgagaMic:


and who gives a Bleep abt Yoruba or lagos?,,, u always want all d project b located in SW.

jst stop disturbing GEJ, and leave him 4 us, we love him like tat

teufelein:


gej is not only clueless, he's embodiment of silliness all rolled into one complete ABYSSAL IMBECILITY. i've never in my life seen/observed or witnessed such crass foolishness in my life. jeg has redefined that word imbecility to a level where i find just disgust, despise, supreme contempt for him. he's an eyesore and not worth it to live amidst the Great People of Izon or Ijaw...he must be banished from Ijawland!
