CONCLUSION 29
Although interest in port hub development, Africa’s ports lag behind other world regions
Huge effort necessary to improve efficiency, but potential rewards are compelling
Case Study: Nigeria◦ Privatization initiatives have been a success ◦ Port performance still impeded by wider issues:
port marine and landside access modernize customs corruption
