Growing up I heard a lot of stories about how Nigeria use to have abundance resources and how they were mismanaged and looted but never for once your Name pop up in any corruption scandal.

Massive Respect Sir.

Plateau should consider this option. The rail lines are major limiting factor of dry ports. G.E is taking of western narrow gauge lines so that issue will be solved im guessing.

Obviously you didn't pay adequate attention to history.

Enlighten us. What did history say? No tales by moonlight.

It's confirmed, eru ni Yoruba ma se ku!

How can goods be brought in through Lagos and the duty tax paid in the north? This is not to decongest Lagos ports but to have the Hausa & Fulani evade duty taxes.

How come no Yoruba is talking about this? How can you let other tribes take food out of your children's mouths? Yoruba's ports have been taken over by Hausa&fulani, with shiploads of weapons they will use to kill you brought in weekly and they now want to use Yorubaland to serve Nigeria, Chad and Niger republic without paying anything to the SW.

To decongest the ports, remove all the middle men and bribery and reduce the time it takes to clear goods, and build a place in Ogun for unclaimed goods with additional fees to clear or auction off.

Irankiran iran oshi gbaa ni Yoruba I swear!

Does not solve the congestion in lagos. The containers will still come thru lagos. We need to open up more sea ports in other states.

Well said! The prospects for other functional Seaports in the Southern part of Nigeria was killed due to political sentiments.

It's quite unfortunate, Nigeria is yet to come to realization of the truth that no nation can attain sustainable development without a defined economic plan devioded of sentiments!

Nigeria can only make meaningful progress when we learn to separate POLITICS FROM ECONOMIC PLANS (DEVELOPMENTAL BLUEPRINTS)!

It has nothing to do with politics, it's all about supply, demand, market and cost effectiveness. Te market and the folks buying, selling and making money in that market will dictate where, how to ship, collect and sell their goods.

Politics can not stand in the way of these factors and it's not by accident that the folks in the import and shipping business are not out there up in arms, crying and pleading with the government to alter the status quo.

Private interests in other parts of Nigeria and even Edo state Gov. are going ahead with their own seaports, but you can build all the ports you desire, you can not force people to use your ports or do what's not in their own best business interest.

Besides, the major markets are not in that part of the country so of what economic sense is shipping the same level of goods and services to that part of the country when in fact the major consumers are elsewhere.?

Given the very strategic and important nature of the project to our state, it will be critical that PLSG buys equity (i.e., takes a share of the concession by becoming part owners) of the project. Buying equity will release capital to the concessionaire to complete the project, but will also ensure that Plateau shares of any profits that accrues from the venture (this is of course aside taxes that it will also collect). This is exactly what the Kaduna state Government did in accelerating the development of the Kaduna Inland Dry Container Depot.
