Ogun Set To Commence Seaport , Naval Base Construction

The Ogun State government has stated that plans are ongoing for the construction of a seaport in the state.

Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun disclosed Wednesday, that the State Government would soon announce commencement of a sea port in the State.

This was during a courtesy visit by Real Admiral Yakubu Wambai, Flag Officer Commanding Western Naval Command of the Nigerian Navy.

While commending the development as a welcome idea which would ensure significant Naval presence in the State, the FOC expressed readiness of the Nigerian Navy to receive the State Government’s request for a full Naval base.

Past governors of the state had reaffirmed commitment for the construction of a seaport but observers believe that the Abiodun administration would flag off the groundbreaking event on the project.
