According to the CPPI data cited by the reports, Tin Can Island Port ranks 10th and Apapa Port ranks 12th on the World Bank’s CPP1 for 2025. The reports attribute the improvement to efforts to upgrade port infrastructure and modernize equipment, though they do not provide detailed performance metrics beyond the ranking results. One outlet also includes comments from the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) managing director, who links the gains to increased investment in infrastructure and modernization initiatives under President Bola Tinubu’s government, along with support from the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy.
