Tin Can Island Port in Apapa, Lagos, is one of the two relatively active seaports in Nigeria.

The second one being the Apapa Port, also situated in Apapa.

Nigeria currently generates about N1trillion from ports operations across the country.

About 75% of that amount is generated from the Apapa and Tin Can Island Island seaports.

Some school of thought believes that the amount generated from the ports could have been more if the Apapa roads were in good condition.

Another school of thought believes that several trillion more would be realized from the ports in the country if the other seaports in the country were made more active.

Now, that is a story for another day.

Meanwhile, a visit to the Tin Can Island Port reveals an environment that is a picture of disorganization and filth.

The environment – especially in front of the gates – is populated by traders, clearing agents, different law enforcement agents, touts, long trail of parked trailers, etc. All of them hustling for attention, or to gain entrance into the port complex, or trying to extort patrons of money, etc.

All of these, together with the dirty environment, makes this port – one of Nigeria’s major non-oil cash cow – an eye-sore.

Dear Gov. Ambode, Please Don’t Forget To Cover The Drainage Along The Reconstructed Airport Road. See PHOTOS here

What more can one say?

Lagos is becoming more notorious for unsanitary environment. I hope Sanwo-Olu does something about it.

Lagos State is slowly loosing its prestige!
Everyday it’s either flood or parked trailers! Especially this Tincan island Axis!
Lagos State is gradually becoming a shadow of its old self I really do hope Sanwo-olu dope out something good during his reign

And here comes Big head Lucifer beefing from HELL!

Mr AutoJosh, don't bother to reply dis tin please!

Lagos is just a glorified city, a city full of refuse, n bad roads. The coming of Ambode didn't help matter, it worsened the situation.

Bring down de glory to de south
Lagos don cast

No thanks Ambode

Vry nice nah

This looks neater than what I see everyday

A shame.

Ok

Lagos is just a massive dustbin

No thanks to Ambode government

The dirtiest Lagos has ever been is under this Ambode's administration.

This place is too clean and organized for a public place of its kind na..

Common Mile 12 is not as neat and organized like that

Why can't they govt use a tiny fraction of the revenue generated to develop the community. I shake my head for this country.

Forget that road coming from mile3 to apapa wharf na death trap very dirty ehnnnnn trailers everywhere bad road mud gutters heaps of dirt's

Shame to Nigeria

Open more port in other port enable states they won't

Lagos una go hear am
