NEW PORTS DEVELOPMENT:
In keeping with the Authority’s commitment to creating an enabling atmosphere for the construction of more deep seaports after Lekki Deep Seaport (which is already operational), and Badagry Deep Seaport, the Managing Director @MohdBelloKoko, today received the Ondo State Coordinator for Special Projects, Mr. Boye Oyewumi, who submitted the Full Business Case (FBC) for the Ondo Multipurpose Deep Seaport Project.

Located along the coast of Ondo, the port is estimated to cost USD 1 billion to be funded through a PPP plan.
