According to Omajuwa, “this achievement is unprecedented in any sea port in the west coast of Africa considering the type of vessels on the trade and the type of ship to shore cranes used. The vessel was laden with 337 units of containers and was discharged and she loaded 590 units of containers. The vessel berthed on 14th November, 2009 and sailed on 16th November, 2009”.
