Speaking during her tour of the Lagos Port Complexes, yesterday, the Minister said, “we cannot build on a weak foundation, it is vital that we get these two very important ports modernized and ready to berth modern vessels. The state of the Ports show decades of neglect but it’s better late than never.”
Saraki said the ministry would organise a tripartite meeting with Nigerian Ports Authority and Nigeria Customs Service on the demolition of the building, which has stalled the completion of the railway construction. He said for the past three years, several efforts made at removing the building sitting along the rail gauge track has been futile.
“It has been agreed that the building is going to be demolished but the fact is that it is a radioactive facility. It houses scanners and we have to ensure that the demolition is done safely.”
