He made this known during an inspection tour of Ports & Cargo Handling Services Ltd., the flagship business of SIFAX Group, at Tin Can Island Port in Lagos, also on Friday.

According to him, SIFAX Group and its subsidiaries are adding great value to the Nigerian maritime sector and by extension the economy and deserves the government’s support.

“I am excited at what your company is doing. You are really doing a great job. I want to assure you that we will look into the issue of concession renewal and make sure that this is wrapped up in no time.

“All the challenges being faced by your business have been outlined and we have begun consulting relevant agencies to make sure that we tackle them headlong.

“The maritime sector is dear to my heart and with the right atmosphere it can become the major earner for government. We will make sure that this terminal will operate at maximum capacity in no time,” he said.

Mr John Jenkins, MD, Ports & Cargo Handling Services Limited, while welcoming the minister noted that the company was committed to exploring the potentials of the maritime sector.

He added that SIFAX Group, the parent company, was continually investing in the terminal in order to deliver best value for all customers and grow the industry.

Capt. Ibraheem Olugbade, the Executive Director, SIFAX Off Dock Nigeria Ltd., also highlighted SIFAX Group’s intervention in the maritime sector through the development of various inland container terminals around Tin Can and Apapa Ports.

“We have developed various inland container terminals around Apapa and the most important of them is SIFAX Inland Container Terminal, located at Ijora.

“In the nearest future, we are hoping to receive vessels at this terminal. We move boxes from various terminals to the off docks and also receive empty containers too,” he said.
