Nigerian Ports Authority boss Abubakar Dantsoho showed up at the Kano International Trade Fair and basically said his agency wants to hook up local exporters with overseas buyers by cutting through all the paperwork nonsense. He gave props to the Kano Chamber of Commerce for keeping the fair relevant and pointed out that the city sits in a perfect spot for connecting Nigerian producers to landlocked countries up north.

The NPA set up Export Processing Terminals with help from the Nigerian Export Promotion Council to handle packaging, documentation, and certification all in one place instead of making people bounce between offices. Dantsoho mentioned they are automating everything through the Ports Community System before rolling out a National Single Window that puts everyone on the same digital platform.

He told small business owners at the fair to hit up the NPA booth and check out their online tools, saying the whole point is making it stupid easy for Nigerian goods to move through ports without getting stuck in red tape.
