The Guardian: Hours after the first vessel berthed at Lekki deep seaport, stakeholders and residents along the corridor have expressed worry with the slow response of the Federal and state governments to providing the infrastructure needed to efficiently kick-start the seaport, amid concerns that Apapa experience, especially, as it relates to cargo evacuation and chaotic gridlock, may resurface at the Lekki corridor.

This Day: Presidential candidate of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, yesterday, said killings by raiding assailants and general insecurity across the country had continued unabated because culprits from previous incidents were left unpunished, and this naturally generated more criminals.

The Nation: The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) yesterday took a step forward in finding solution to the post-primary crisis, caused mainly by the choice of Delta State Governor Ifeanyi Okowa as running mate. Although the Presidential candidate Alhaji Abubakar Atiku, is expected back in the country from Dubai this week, to take charge of the reconciliation process, he was emphatic that he will not bow to pressure to zone or share offices before next year’s poll.
