Over the years, stakeholders in the maritime sector have been clamouring for subsidised and special exchange rate for the industry. As a nation that relies heavily on importation, the agitation was to enable importers especially manufacturing companies to easily have access to forex in order to bring in raw materials and other goods through the nation’s seaports.
But government turned deaf ears to these demands, instead sponsoring pilgrims with special exchange rate, while importers went through black market to get forex.
Today, cargo importation into Nigerian ports has been reduced drastically to about 50 per cent, even as importers and Customs-licensed agents attributed the reduction to high exchange rate. As the high exchange rate hit importers very hard, investigations also revealed that the Nigeria Customs Service is planning to increase the current exchange rate for cargo importation from N381 per dollar to N410 to a dollar.
The situation has forced most factories to be producing at a very low capacity due to inability to import raw materials, according to operators. Presently, port users said at Tin Can Island Port most of the terminals are becoming empty, and very few consignments are exiting the port.
Speaking with Daily Sun, Chairman of Tin Can Port Chapter, Association of Nigerian Licensed Customs Agents (ANLCA), Alhaji Muhammed Mojeed, said that high exchange rate and other challenges are responsible for the shortage of cargo at the port.
According to him, containers exiting the port have reduced drastically from 400 containers per day, to as low as 100 containers per day, adding that reduction can be attributed to the present high exchange rate and lack of access to foreign exchange.
“The volume of cargoes coming into Nigeria has reduced, if you go into some terminals now, you would find out that, a terminal that usually drops 400 containers for examination per day, hardly would they drop 100 containers now because of the exchange rate.
“Right now, the rate of cargo importation has dropped, there is no way importers to even get money to clear their cargoes. The dollar rate is too high, it is N501 in the black market now. This has made it difficult for importers to carry out importation. Some factories are now producing at 50 per cent capacity because of their lack of access to raw materials. Customs are still saying that they want to increase their exchange rate bench value from N381 to N410 per US dollar. We want to advise customs not to do that now due to the inflation rate which is too high, if the government should implement that now, definitely, it would affect the importation further,” he said.
He also said the challenge of transferring back; empty containers abroad has equally led to increase in freight costs. He hinted that the container scarcity, which hit most international shipping companies, was one of the reasons for the drop in cargo importation into Nigerian port as well.
He noted: “It is only cargoes that are coming in now, a shipment that you can previously achieve with $4,000 has now risen as high as $14,000. How much does the importer stand to gain after making such shipments?
“So, the effect of empty containers not being returned is part of these challenges. However, I believe the shipping companies are beginning to work on it now because most of the abandoned empty containers are beginning to leave our country.” Corroborating this, a former member of Presidential Committee on the Nigerian Customs Reforms, Lucky Amiwero, said the country is going down and people in authority sit down in their hybrid towers and begin to dish out policies without looking at the realities on ground.
According to him, Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)contributed to most of the problems because it has not been consistent in most of its policies. He said CBN is for monetary policy but they overlap into fisical policy that is meant for the Ministry of Finance, saying that Government needs to call CBN into order because most of their policies are overlapping, which is not the best for any country.
“Now, people are leaving the country gradually. Looking at the exchange rate, when you are going into importation, you are not sure of the stability of exchange rate process and you might be running into problems. People are a little bit confused because the rate is moving up as importation is becoming more difficult because people are not moving out of the country to bring in foreign exchange due to COVID.
He said Nigerian port has a system that is not working due to arbitrary charges from the shipping companies, terminal operators even the Council for Regulation of Freight Forwarders of Nigerian (CRFFN). He said these charges are not supposed to be in the port.

I wish I could agree with the op. Enugu of today isn’t the Enugu of 15 years ago. A lot has changed. I prefer Enugu of 2000.

Governors Chimaroke and Chime messed up the landscape and city plan. Yes I said so. Chime might be hailed for some infrastructural developments but in my opinion, the man destroyed Enugu.
Road networks and maintenance, but...Old polo park should not have been sold or converted to shopping mall. There were lots of lands spaces outside of the city to benefit from that...Nike, Awkunanaw, Nkanu, Agbani etc. Why destroy Old polo park?
GTC...Government Technical College opp shop rite has been invaded with most of their lands sold and converted to residential areas!

WTC isn’t spared, the green area opp Rangers Ave was first taken over by Chimaroke and ruined, green areas adjacent Okpara square were not spared, House of Assembly complex has shopping malls beside it, IMT lands have been sold, bought with buildings all over..

Where are the green areas and recreational parks? Achara layout should have a big park, Uwani has Ngwo park and its only a matter of time before an idiot in power sell those to himself.

It seems the current governor has got the bug and wants to outdo his predecessors...every available land space s been acquired with an indiscriminate building of houses all over.

What happened to the old zoo beside 82 Div Abakpa? It has been sold. Old Phoenix? Iconic secretariat building with the clock could not be preserved. We lack the expertise, vision and skills to preserve and modernise that building.

Enugu state and Igbos will suffer for these destructions and greed. We call that development...Presidential hotel is now a dilapidated structure. Soon someone will exploit its ruined state and acquire it for peanuts.

Pls posters should stop deceiving people. Enugu is losing its potentials. The master plan is gone. Chime has a lot of questions to answer. The man ruined Enugu. Ugwuanyi followed suit. Under him, lands have been sold and existing city master plan messed up.

Town development isn’t just about selling lands and building duplexes with twin columns and fake bricks all around it.

Okada and Keke have taken over and it’s hard to drive without the operators of these vehicles not hitting or scratching your car.

It’s not too late to stop the greed that’s taking over and ruining the city. I hope the governor or the leadership in Ebonyi state will learn a lot from what’s happening in Enugu and prevent this in Abakaliki.

kosi all you pointed out here is nothing but the truth. don't mind those praise singers up there. verily, Enugu city has deteriorated and still dilapidating.

Bkayyy:
And where is the Enugu?
Lol.
You sit in your house and hate for no reason

just 2% of the town. where is greeny area of abakpa, achara layout uwani , obiagu asata ogui. Trans ekulu , new Haven and emene.

keep showing us bushes. apart from gra. few places in independent layout, where else? even the greeny gra is know longer like before.

rotecch77:
But don’t forget the British standard size of block is 9” or 6” which is 225*225* 450 (9”) and 150 *225 *450. (6”) so the block maker who produce such is right and it’s a recommended size.

In width you can also get 4”5” 6” 7” 9”
But in height 9” is the standard sandcrete block either hollow or hollow less.

Reason why you will notice that all drawing will tally with the height of 9” block plus mortar bed 25mm (1”) to achieve your building height.

Reason why also you will notice that 4 course of block 9” will give you regular window bottom height and window height without cutting the block.

Same reason with door height.

All these things has standard measurement.

Once it’s more than 9” or lower than 9” then there will be an issue of cutting block height or reduce height to work with building components (windows, door, etc

must everything be archaic British standard . can't we innovate our own standard

He is correct about the statement that he made but shouldn't use that as a medium for inciting violence. Take for instance, imagine a situation whereby inmates that comprises of thieves, rapists and killers are freed into the society all in the name of actualizing Biafra, what is going to be the result.

When one thinks front, think back. All those prisoners released will soon start unleashing terror in the East here. Time shall come even police and soldiers will abandon the masses and protect only themselves with their families only.

Police are there to maintain law and order and if Ipob wants to show their anger, they should start with our leaders. Releasing inmates and burning police stations is not the best approach.

Those ammunitions collected from the police will still be used on the innocent masses for robbery and settling scores.

Please let's trade with caution

Southeast Attack: Separatist Fighters May Have Gained Access To Police Armoury

There are fears that a large cache of arms and ammunition may have been carted away by separatist fighters who attacked the Police headquarters in Owerri, Imo State, Southeast Nigeria on Monday.
 0
Separatist fighters who attacked Police Headquarters in Imo State, Southeast Nigeria may have gained access to the armoury of the police command, contrary to the claim by the police that they were repelled during the attack.
The Nigeria Police had Monday blamed the attack on members of a proscribed secessionist group, Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), according to a preliminary investigation, insisting that the armoury was intact.
The police had maintained that the attackers’ attempt to gain access to the police armoury at the headquarters was “totally and appropriately resisted by police officers on duty who repelled the attackers and prevented them from breaking in and looting the armoury.”
But security sources informed HumAngle that the separatists may have carted away a huge amount of weapons from the armoury holding thousands of firearms, ammunition, and non-lethal weaponry.
One of the sources who did not want to be named said the development portends danger for the country and serious security threats
“If this is confirmed to be true, it raises the threat of an escalation of the violent campaign that has just been launched by separatists in Southeast Nigeria and parts of the South-south region,” said the source.
A top security official who opted for anonymity urged the Federal Government to immediately carry out a probe to assess, and not limit the investigation to the loss of lives and damage of facilities, but the carting away of a large cache of arms and ammunition.
The source told HumAngle that people within the security community are surprised the Police Commissioner in the state is yet to be recalled considering the breach and the lack of preparedness of the facility, despite multiple security reports warning beforehand.
Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered relevant agencies of the Federal Government to end what he called “anarchy” in Imo State.
The President in a statement on Monday by Garba Shehu, his spokesman, condemned what he regarded as the “deadly insurgent attack” that took place on the Police Command Headquarters and the Correctional Facility in Owerri.  Artist impression of IPOB rally
