170,000 employment will be created by Lekki Seaport, according to the NPA

The managing director also said that in order to ensure convenience in the logistics chain, train links from the ports were being renovated. The Lekki multi-purpose seaport is anticipated to create more than 170,000 direct and indirect jobs for Nigerians when completion, according to the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA). On January 23, 2023, President Muhammadu Buhari GCON officially opened the Lekki Deep Seaport. Mohammed Koko, the managing director of NPA, announced this on Saturday in Enugu at their Special Day at the 34th Enugu International Trade Fair, which is being held and is being organized by the Enugu Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines & Agriculture (ECCIMA). Lekki Deep Seaport, he claimed, would be a big game-changer for Nigeria's maritime sector and was the deepest port in West Africa.
