Speaking at the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) Freight Forwarders Group Conference in Lagos over the weekend, titled, ‘From Ports to Prosperity: Fixing the Links in Nigeria’s Supply Chain,’ the Deputy Chief Operating Officer of Lekki Port, Daniel Odibe, said the port was also working with agencies and partners to scale transhipment into landlocked countries.

The high-level forum brought together policymakers, port operators, Customs officials, freight forwarders, and trade facilitators to address critical bottlenecks within Nigeria’s logistics ecosystem.
Odibe, who spotlighted the port’s growing role in unlocking transhipment value for West Africa, said, “Since we began transhipment operations in June 2023, we’ve moved over 40,000 TEUs across West African ports—nearly half of that in just the first six months of 2025.

“With a 16.5-meter draft and super-post-Panamax cranes, Lekki Port can receive the largest vessels in the world and discharge cargo swiftly. This saves shipping lines both time and cost,” Odibe stated.
The LCCI conference served as a dynamic forum to explore gaps in Nigeria’s freight forwarding and customs value chain, with participants calling for the replication of Lekki Port’s “smart port” model across the country.

“Lekki Port is not just operational—it is exemplary,” Odibe noted. “We are already working with agencies and partners to scale transipment into landlocked countries and reduce overall port dwell time. Seamless systems are not a luxury; they are a necessity.”
