Akutah, who was represented by the Deputy Director, Trade Services Division, Adaora Nwonu, reiterated the need to modernise seaports through automation, connectivity, and promotion of Ease of Doing Business, which is essential for the industry’s growth.

He noted that NSC effectively regulates tariffs and charges at ports, preventing arbitrary introductions and ensuring a smooth trade process.

Akutah also outlined the Council’s key interventions, including the development of infrastructure such as Inland Dry Ports and Vehicle Transit Areas.
