The Minister had in December, 2023, written to the Works Minister, appealing to him to assist in fixing the access roads leading to the seaports in the country as part of measures to resolve the gridlock on that corridor and increase ports efficiency.
In response to the Minister’s appeal, the Works Minister, in a letter to his counterpart, dated February 14, 2024, titled “Re: Urgent Request for Rehabilitation of the Federal Access Roads to Key Ports,” noted that the access road to Tin Can Island Port has been successfully completed.”
He also stated that the ministry has awarded a contract for the rehabilitation of the access road to Lagos Port Complex in Lagos State, adding that the contractor would soon be mobilised to site.

On the access road to Onne Port in Rivers State, the Works minister posited that the contract for the reconstruction of the road was already being processed and that it would soon be awarded, stressing that the Ministry of Works also understands the socio-economic importance of these roads leading to the ports.

Oyetola commended the proactive measures taken by the Works minister and expressed gratitude for his contribution to improving the Ease of Doing Business at the country’s ports.
He asserted that after fixing the dilapidated port access roads, importers and exporters would no longer experience high transportation costs, prolonged transit times, and heightened risk of accidents.
“Nigeria’s foreign investment will increase, and our international trade competencies will also be enhanced,” Oyetola remarked.
