The Executive Secretary/Chief Executive Officer, Nigerian Shippers Council, Pius Ukeyima Akutah, has commended the Ports & Cargo Handling Services Limited, a subsidiary of SIFAX Group, for its impact in the nation’s maritime sector.
Speaking during a courtesy visit to the terminal’s management, the Shippers Council boss noted that Ports & Cargo has maintained its status as the foremost indigenous terminal operator in Nigeria.
Akutah said: “We are very pleased with the operations of the terminal over the years. You have positioned yourself as a terminal to reckon with. Your investments in the maritime sector have continued to shape the growth of the blue economy and you have proven that you have the necessary expertise to run this terminal very well.
“I want to solicit your support as always. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has given us a mandate and his eyes are firmly on the growth of the sector. We will roll out measures that will support your continued growth. The council will firmly collaborate with all operators this year to maximise success and entrench more automation of the sector.”
In his response, Managing Director, PCHS, John Jenkins, thanked the NSC boss, hinting that the terminal is willing to collaborate with the council to achieve the president’s vision.
