The Nigerian Ports Authority, NPA, has served a final quit notice to squatters lodging and operating illegally within the Lagos Port Complex, LPC, Apapa.

LPC Port Manager, Mr Nasir Mohammed, who disclosed this in Lagos, said that the warning became necessary due to the security challenges bedevilling the country.

According to Mohammed, the port remains a security facility and cannot accommodate all, especially those without legitimate business.

Mohammed said, “Like we mentioned sometimes back, recent security assessments revealed the presence of some squatters and some other unauthorised persons, who, for one reason or the other, found their way into the port.
