The Federal government has approved the establishment of a deep sea port in Ondo State.

The Federal Executive Council, presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari, gave the approval for the operating licence for the Port at the FEC meeting held on Wednesday in Abuja.

The memo for the approval was presented by the Federal Ministry of Transportation through the Minister of Transportation, Eng Muazu Jaji Sambo, following years of efforts by the Ondo State Government to establish a deep sea port, first at Olokola which failed to materialise since 2004.

The efforts were renewed by Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu SAN upon his assumption in 2017.
