Nigeria Port Authority Statutory Duties And Functions

• Develop ,own and operate ports and harbours
• Provide safe and navigable channel
• Offer cargo handling and storage services
• Maintain Port facilities and equipment
• Ensure safety and security
• Develop and own property

This system hindered port development and curtailed operational efficiency. The ports became less competitive and a conduit to drain the meager national resources.

In an attempt to change this trend, the activities of the Authority (NPA) were commercialized and offered greater autonomy in accordance with the recommendation of the Technical Committee on Privatization and Commercialization. However this could not bring the expected improvement because of the public service bureaucracy and interference. It was later revised to the initial status.
