Recall that truckers had expressed readiness to flood Lekki Port aftermath the arrival of the container ship, GSL Alice to the port last week to offload some cargoes for a firm in the Free Trade Zone. According to Mr. Jama Onwubuariri, “The electronic call-up system has successfully managed truck traffic in the Apapa and TinCan ports, and we are ready to deploy it at the Lekki Epe port. We are confident that similar success can be replicated in the Lekki Epe axis should the call-up system be introduced. “We’re confident that when the electronic call-up system is implemented in the Lekki-Epe axis, the concerns over traffic that residents and businesses are currently expressing will be eradicated to the barest minimum. “So far, about 1,3m port bound and non-port trucks have been processed via the Eto call-up system.”
