Lagos ports to receive 26 ships with food items, others


This was made known by the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) via its publication – Shipping Position.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), NPA said that the expected ships contained buck wheat, bulk sugar, general cargoes, empty containers, base oil, aviation fuel, ethanol, base oil, diesel, containers and petrol. Also, four ships had already arrived the ports, waiting to berth with bulk fertiliser, bulk sugar and petrol .

15 other ships are at the ports discharging general cargoes, bulk wheat, containers, empty containers, bulk gypsum, clinker and petrol.


Nigeria operates mostly an import-dependent economy, which makes the Lagos ports the busiest in sub-saharan Africa.





On a monthly basis, ships from across the world berth at the Lagos ports carrying goods which flood Nigerian markets making it difficult for locally produced goods to gain traction in the economy. Meanwhile, the European Union (EU) and Nigeria has commenced formal talks on a deal to send Nigerian migrants in Europe back home.

The deal is part of the EU’s latest move to stem the exodus of Nigerians and other Africans to Europe. The migrants usually embark on dangerous trips across the Mediterranean sea in their efforts to get into Europe.
