Nigeria Records 25% Export Growth in Two Years, Dantsoho Says

Nigerian Ports Authority Managing Director Abubakar Dantsoho says the country’s exports rose by 25% over the past two years. Speaking at an event in London, he attributed the increase to policies under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and improved port operations that have boosted cargo handling. Dantsoho also cited about four partnerships involving terminal operators, the Nigeria Customs Service and other government agencies, along with a simplified window system to speed cargo processing. Challenges remain at Nigeria’s ports despite the gains.
