Vacancy For Radio Officer 11 at Nigeria Port Authority

Port operations and development in Nigeria began in the middle of the 19^th century. The effort towards the provision of facilities for ocean going vessels started with the opening of Lagos Lagoon in the early 1990.

The Apapa Port in the South West was earmarked for development in 1913 and construction of the first four deep water berths of 548.64m at the port began in 1921

The Port of Port Harcourt was conceptualised on discovery of coal at Enugu and was subsequently opened for the business in 1913. The completion of the railway line in Enugu in 1916 resulted in the development of four 1920 feet long berths at Port Harcourt to expedite the exploitation and eventual exportation of coal on one hand and the support of importation of goods on the other hand.

The Nigerian Port Authority was establish as s continuous Public Corporation by the Ports Act of 1954 to address the institutional weakness that bordered on lack of coherent policy framework as port development were done on ad hoc basis driven by changes on the level and demand of sea-borne trade.
