It is designed to enhance Nigeria\u2019s export capacity and strengthen the country\u2019s cargo infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>In an official statement, FAAN\u2019s Director of Public Affairs and Consumer Protection, Mrs Obiageli Orah, highlighted that the terminal is set to improve the efficiency, scalability, and connectivity of cargo handling operations.<\/p>\n<p>Orah further noted that the facility comes at a crucial time, as the surge in e-commerce and agricultural exports demands a more reliable and secure logistics framework\u2014one that reduces delays and provides vital support to businesses across the country.<\/p>\n<p>She stated: \u201cIt also positions Lagos as a central cargo hub, which is expected to attract more national and international freight operators. FAAN plans to replicate this model across other states, including Abuja, Kano, Jos, Niger, and Port Harcourt, expanding access to modern cargo processing across the country.
