Niger Delta Activists Protest the Siting of a $1.5 Billion Dry Dock in Lagos State (Photos)

Joint Niger Delta Youths Movement have demonstrated against the sitiing of a $1.5 billion dry dock in Badagry, Lagos State.

Joint Niger Delta Youths Movement led by its leaders yesterday, demonstrated against the siting of a $1.5 billion dry dock in Badagry, Lagos State. They specifically cited Nigeria LNG (NLNG), a liquiefied natural gas company, and other investors.

In a statement released by spokesperson of NLNG, Dr. Kudo Eresia-Eke, says that it is not the owner of the Badagry Dry Dock Project;

"The owner of the proposed dry dock in Badagry is a consortium of other Nigerian companies under the name of Badagry Ship Repair and Maritime Engineering Company (BSMEC) and which NLNG is NOT a part of.

NLNG's only interest was and still remains, encouraging investors to consider building dry docks in the country to save the nation's foreign exchange and save local ship owners, like ourselves, the trouble of having to go overseas for dry dock services."

While the statement said the company is unable to 'dictate' the site for dry dock projects, it is unclear how much influence it has over other investors in the placement of the Badagry Dry Dock Project.
