Speaking with pressmen in Lagos, the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of TTP, Temidayo Adesoye, said it took his company over six years to understand Apapa gridlock and build the electronic solution deployed in February 2021.
He said 50 percent of Apapa traffic was bound for the ports, adding that the focus is to effectively regulate maritime traffic and solve half the problem.
“If everybody can just do the right thing, everybody will transit within 24 hours. But right now, what we are seeing is a maximum of 48 hours if it is not an export container,” he said.
He also blamed the slow start of ETO on transporters who failed to heed the initial call to register as only 120 truckers with 2,000 trucks registered and attended their training.
