Ports Authority and Customs Agents Forge Pact to End Apapa and Tin Can Gridlock
The Nigerian Ports Authority and the Association of Nigerian Licensed Customs Agents have pledged to deepen their collaboration on easing chronic traffic and cargo delays at Apapa and Tin Can Island ports. At a strategic meeting in Lagos, the NPA Managing Director and the ANLCA National President committed to upgrading the Electronic Call-Up System (Eto) and refining port processes. Both ports were ranked among the World Bank’s top 20 most improved globally under recent reforms. Speakers highlighted the need for infrastructure modernization and tighter oversight. ANLCA will work alongside the NPA, the police, and other stakeholders to form a task force that monitors truck movements and curbs racketeering along port access routes. The renewed partnership aims to boost ease of doing business, accelerate cargo evacuation, and sustain Lagos’s status as West Africa’s commercial hub.
