Mrs. Hadiza Bala-Usman, MD, NPA |
Speaking
at the event, Bala-Usman said the NPA under her management is keen in driving
intermodal transport as part of efforts to further decongest the traffic
gridlock on Apapa port axis.
She
disclosed that the NPA is ready to partner any agency or private investor who will
give priority to intermodal transport, “as the
continuous reliance on our road is no longer feasible and should be
discouraged.”
The
NPA MD added that the flag off event is of huge economic advantage to the
country, adding that using barges to ferry containers of solid mineral across
the waters to the APM Terminal within Apapa Ports will help to elongate the
life of our roads as this mode of export will be most encouraged.
Furthermore
the NPA boss stated that the occasion is an eye opener and also serves to
generate more revenue for the nation and provide employment opportunities.
Calling
on stakeholders to key into the window of Public Private Partnership (PPP), she
stated that the occasion further deepens NPA management’s efforts at complying
with the federal government’s directives on the Ease of Doing Business at the
nation’s sea ports whilst the rehabilitation of the ports access roads are
ongoing at Apapa.
In
partnering with and encouraging private initiatives, she added that the
authority would ensure the deployment of standard operational procedures (SOPs)
with the view to complying with international best practices.
The
Chief Executive Officer of Connect Rail Services Limited (CRSL), Edeme Kelikume, representing the
service provider, appreciated the NPA’s role in the provision of the enabling
environment for the take-off of the project. (Thisday)
Have you heard this? Many Nigerian exporters have been
defrauded of huge amount of money in the process of exporting commodities to
foreign countries. Do you know why? They were not trained on export operations,
management, documentations and the best methods of payment in export trade.
This is terrible!!! Nigerians cannot continue to lose money to foreigners in
the course of export business. Exporters, why don’t you get a practical manual
that teaches the stages of export trade from processing and packaging of commodities
to receipt of payment by the foreign buyers. It teaches export operations,
export management, export documentations and methods of payment in export
trade? It is a contemporary step-by-step guide to export trade. It tells all
the contemporary dynamics in export trade. To get it, click on the link below:
Hmmm!!! Folks, have you ever
imagined how the financial status of your firm will be when more than 20,000
