Lagos Port Gridlock: Assessing the Efficiency of Government's Intervention

The ongoing challenges faced by port stakeholders and residents in Apapa, Tincan, and surrounding areas have prompted an assessment of the effectiveness of government intervention. Over the years, residents and stakeholders have endured hours-long traffic jams, hindering access to homes and offices. Truck owners and drivers have accused government task force teams of corruption, while inefficiencies in managing port access roads have led to high haulage costs and cargo abandonment. Businesses in Apapa are losing billions of naira due to gridlock caused by trailers and trucks. While the government acknowledges these challenges and pledges to find solutions, the livelihoods of residents and the smooth functioning of a vital economic hub remain uncertain.
