The Nigerian Shippers’ Council (NSC) will next week hold a one-day meeting with stakeholders on the operations of the Kaduna Dry Port.
The meeting which is expected to focus on the processes of documentation of the Kaduna bound cargoes, obligations of terminal operators and shipping companies will hold January 25th, 2018 at the Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The meeting will equally look at the expected roles of other stakeholders in ensuring the smooth operations of the facility and how best to successfully operationalize the Kaduna Dry Port.
The inland ports being facilitated by the Nigerian Shippers’ Council is an intermodal terminal directly connected by road or rail to a seaport and operating as a centre for the shipment of the cargoes to inland destination.
Recall that President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari recently commissioned the Kaduna inland Dry Port for the commencement of full operations at the Dry Port.
The 5000 TEU facility located on the Kachia Road in Kaduna gained its port status through official gazette having satisfied all requirements recommended by the Federal Ministry of Transportation and the Nigerian Shippers’ Council in accordance with international best practices.
