“We are pleased to report that Lekki Port is now at almost 80 percent completion. We are confident that with the continued support of our esteemed stakeholders, we are on track for the commencement of port operations later this year,” the management stated while commenting on the development.

As a multi-purpose deep seaport that is located at the heart of the Lagos Free Trade Zone, Lekki Port will be one of the most modern ports in West Africa, offering enormous support to the burgeoning commercial operation across Nigeria and the entire West African region.

The port is being developed by an international consortium led by Lekki Port Investment Holding Inc. including China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd. (CHEC), which holds 52.50 percent, Tolaram Group that holds 22.50 percent, Lagos State Government that holds 20 percent and the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), which holds 5 percent.

By projection, the port project is scheduled to be delivered by the third quarter of this year.
