Peter Obi Criticizes FG's Port Development Plan
The 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has condemned the Federal Government's recent approval of $1 billion (₦1.5 trillion) for the modernisation of Apapa and Tin Can Island Ports in Lagos.
According to Obi, such overconcentration of investment risks deepening regional disparities in Nigeria's maritime infrastructure.
Developing only Lagos ports is unfair and economically shortsighted.
Obi emphasized the need for diversifying port development to avoid regional disparities.
