Bobby4090:Dry inland ports has nothing to do with rivers in hinterland, it's last port where freight forwarders/clearing agents go to clear containers/goods and services for their client, after the ship must have landed in seaports and onward discharge at the inland ports through land transportation 4 Likes 1 Share |

No sane person will cry that projects aim at spreading development across Nigeria is being initiated. Yorubas have no problem with the development of the east, infact it is good news to them, if you understand what i mean. YORUBAs don't hate....we know the children of hate and victim. |

Bobby4090:hey mr literate, guess you are the one not familiar with geography, do you know that river Niger extends to Enugu, and Maiduguri? Why then do u think Nigeria was coined after river Niger?

... Great development. You can't hold down a region for too long simply because of unhealthy politics. This recession and it's economic antecedents is really bringing a great succour and opportunities to the great people of SE. Talking about contract to supply military vehicles to the Nigerian army from Innoson, contract to supply military shoes and wares from Aba talented cobblers, Ekiti state sponsoring its youth to go and learn trade in Aba, Government campaign for preference for made in Nigeria products which is 80% control by SE, ban on importation of rice which has suddenly placed Anambra and Ebonyi on the top echelon of massive rice producing States, etc. I must really state that this is the best time for SE people. Everything is really turning around for their own good. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Since shagari regime 1983, they are still talking about Onitsha in land port, Aba azu mmiri and oguta. Shame Some people will now say oh they have given you port so forget Biafra. While it exist only on paper like Niger 2nd bridge. Then as election comes they will say vote for us we gave you inland port and roads. You can fool some people some time but not all the people all the time. FG and their politicians are fraud stars. We're tired of Nigeria. Biafra is the answer. 4 Likes |

shotster50: We should have more but do we have the money to do so now ? No It is not the most pressing matter, a better idea would be to improve the transport network, provide logistical support for commerce in form of warehousing and hubs |

Bobby4090: An inland port doesn't need access to a river,we can design a man made canal system like the British and Americans have done. Which obviously would be a waste of resources very scarce at this moment in time. I agree Onitsha is a geographically viable location , but then I think of the oone sea port which is still not at 20% utilization |
Re: Senate Wants Inland Ports In Onitsha, Enugu, Aba, Others by sweetgala(m): 12:53pm On Nov 23, 2016 |
gbosaa: Your statement above is accurate and correct major cities like onitsha enugu aba kaduna , kogi , ogun state ,maiduguri , Lagos PH , ondo should be better connected by rail networks for mass transit of cargo However there is a general error in that many on this thread are advocating for or against an inland waterway connected to the athlantic via a river or canal which as we all know with our current financial capacity is a waste of resources |

Samogbo1:If it eventually scaled tru in d senate, then kudos should be given to the northern senators cos with their numerical strenght dey could put an hold to it before kudos goes to the sponsor and other senators from the south. Igbos in dis forum are happy now about this one but dey forget the northerners and westerners they hate so much supported it cos only your senators could not have made it possible if they all tribalism to play out. |

sweetgala: Who says there's no money for those projects? The FG and the Senate can decide to channel 2-5% of proceeds from crude to fasttrack those projects along with massive infrastructural support. An agreement b/w business moguls and billionaires from the SE and the FG can see private persons funding the project up to 70% of the way with counterpart funding from the FG. Attractive tax and business waivers and shareholding agreements of such ports can be entered into. There are loads of options to be explored so please don't sing that lying song of 'There's no money'. It's bad policies and greed of d current crop of leaders that has landed us where we are today. 1 Like |

freeze001: Who are the billionaires who would fund the venture ! the ones who see the vast amount of investment opportunities in Nigeria atm but have not keyed in. Abeg come take some origin clear eye the money does not exist anywhere like that and the few billionaires alresy have their liquid assets tied up somewhere and have massive loans to service I would rather we use any money raised to develop an advanced rail systems and maybe construct an industrial hub and warehousing structure. Some change can go into solar/energy provision for the manufacturers in aba (Nigeria silicon valley) |

sweetgala: You did not address the entire post...have we stopped selling crude? The FG should get real with the ND and accede to their demands, they are more than deserving. If the process of restructuring and fiscal federalism is fully kicked off and implemented, the FG will not even need to feature in this cos regions will take stock of what they need and do the needful. There is money! The problem is stupidity is inability to open up more earning sources and maintain already existing ones by the FG as currently constituted. No money yet Mr President is still flying needlessly around...twice this November already... He gets free transportation with the jets sponsored by the FG and still gets estacode in foreign currency o! 1 Like |

freeze001: Brother we have not stopped selling crude , however let us be realists We have a deficit in our hands We have an economy which needs an urgent turn around through FG injection into several areas and diversification We have a war still on against the BH and need to put money towards NE reconstruction (VAT deductions) We have to resolve the ND issue with financial commitments We have to spend money on national electricity transmission system (grid) 2nd niger bridge The 5000 employed youths program We still have our expensive FG , NASS and SG reoccurent expenditure You are here talking of inland port. Your idea is truly novel if the FG can find a suitable PPP ideally local investors to lead the project that is a great idea. This is more of a project for the state governments to lead same way Lagos is taking lead with its Free trade zone. There is a lot of money and commerce in that Aba , onitsha enugu axis But there should not be any expectation on FG to make it a prime project or any major funding we already have enough FG uncompleted projects |
