Further Reduction of Govt Agencies Likely

Hassan Bello, ES/CEO Nigerian Shippers Council

Nigerian Shippers’ Council’s call for operationalisation of the National Single Window and deployment of scanners at the nation’s seaports could crystalize soon

Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Otunba Adeniyi Adebayo, gave insight into this at an investigative hearing by the house of Representative Joint Committee on Commerce; Industry; Information; National Orientation; Ethics and Values on the incessant influx of fake, substandard and counterfeit products into the country.

The Minister disclosed that there is an implementation committee at work to ensure that the single window and scanners are deployed soonest.

According to him, “this will significantly improve cargo turnaround time at our ports, promote efficiency and transparency, thereby removing the corruption opportunities that fuel the entry of substandard goods into the country thereby enhancing Nigerian ports’ competitiveness in the West African region.”

Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, represented by the Minority Leader at the House of Representatives, Hon. Ndudi Elumelu, commended efforts of the Joint Committee and expressed hope that the hearing will be a step towards putting an end to the influx of fake counterfeited products into Nigeria.

Chairman of the House Committee on Commerce, Hon. Olufemi Fakeye stated that the hearing “will address the challenges of eradicating imported counterfeit products, particularly in view of Nigeria’s commitment to the African Continental Free Trade Agreement.

With the Single Window, port community portal and functional scanners at the ports, Dr. Jumoke Oduwole, Special Adviser to the President on Ease of Doing Business, said PEBEC aims to ensure that only the Nigerian Customs Service, Nigerian Ports Authority and Nigerian Police Force will be at Nigeria’s seaports as there would be no need for routine physical examination of cargo by additional agencies at the ports.

Dr. Oduwole said the decision to streamline the operations of agencies at the port was first implemented by the previous administration in 2011, and again reinforced in 2018.

He stressed that streamlining agencies’ operations at the port is at the core of Nigeria’s ease of doing business reforms and in line with global best practices aimed at removing bureaucratic constraints and reducing costs to doing business at the ports.
