NRC, APMT Plan Cargo Movement Expansion From Apapa To Ibadan
The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has concluded arrangements with APM Terminal (APMT) to begin expansion of cargo movement from Apapa Port in Lagos to NRC Freight Yard at Moniya, Ibadan.
This is contained in a statement signed by the Deputy Director, Public Relations, NRC, Mr. Yakub Mahmood.
The decision was reached during a meeting between NRC’s management, led by the Managing Director, Dr. Kayode Opeifa, and the management of APMT, led by the Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Frederik Klinke.
Klinke reiterated APMT’s position as the foremost transporter of container freight in the country and a major partner to the NRC.
He noted a strategic advantage Nigeria has by being surrounded by a number of landlocked neighbouring countries.
According to him, this created an opportunity for the country to be a hub for importation of containerised goods.
“APMT assures NRC of greater efficiency in turnaround of cargo at the port”, he said.
Earlier, the Managing Director, Kayode Opeifa, thanked APM Terminal for decades of partnership with NRC.
“We are going to work for the satisfaction of not only the APMT, but all customers who intend to do business with NRC”, he stated.
He also said NRC would provide reliable, efficient, safe and sustainable services, and urged encouragement of greater use of the rail system.
“This will translate into reduction in the cost of goods and services.
“It will also promote food security, which is in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu”, he said.
