Buhari, Ayade Meet In The Villa
Ayade arrived the Villa at about 1p.m and was later taken to meet the President at his residence for the parley that lasted about 40 minutes.
The governor has shown relentless effort to actualise his government’s desire to develop the proposed Bakassi deep seaport and the 260km superhighway, which are valued at about N700 billion.
Ayade had last year said the deep seaport had received presidential nod and that it is expected to boost the export of produce such as rice and banana as well as solid minerals.
The governor had earlier declared that the Bakassi seaport would not compete with the existing Calabar ports, but will only complement it because the new port will be a 16-meters draft that will accommodate bigger vessels.
