The Controller, Tin Can Island Port Command of the Nigeria Customs Service , Comptroller Musa Baba Abdulahi, has alleged that the failure of Hitech Construction Company, the contractor handling the repair of the Apapa-Oshodi Expressway, to open up alternative roads for use of port haulage trucks and other motorists is responsible for the current blockade of the Tin Can Island Port.

The directive was issued by the Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Transportation, Dr. Magdalene Ajani, during a meeting with stakeholders on how to resolve the perennial gridlock on the port access road. “The man going out and the one coming in use the same route. So they have not really defined which route to take to the port and the one to take out of the port. That has to be defined.

The Customs boss said the poor road infrastructure along the Tin Can Island port was the major challenge faced by the command in the course of the year as it impacted negatively on trade facilitation, revenue generation as well as officers’ level of productivity with most of them having to trek to the office on many occasions.

“Our trade facilitation cycle will be complete if cargoes arrive at the factories or warehouses successfully but where you clear it here and yet they can’t get to their destination they create congestion in the port and the purpose of trade facilitation is defeated completely.
