Earlier, the MD of NEPZA lauded the collaboration between NEPZA, SIIFZ and other government agencies.
“We are impressed with the zone’s strategic growth plan, especially as reflected in the company’s value proposition and tagline. With continued support and engagement, significant transformation and economic strides are inevitable.
“The Federal Government’s recent approval for the expansion of Snake Island Port sets SIIFZ and its promoter, Nigerdock, on course to develop one of the most well-established ports within the region, providing access to global trade routes and serving as a gateway to a diversified market,” Ogunyemi said.
