Description

Description

The proposed Inland Dry Port at Avo Ntigha, in Isiala Ngwa North Local Government Area of Abia State, Nigeria, is a strategic initiative aimed at boosting international trade and creating employment opportunities. The project is one of six legacy projects of the Federal Government, entrusted to Eastgate Inland Container Limited through a concession. However, the project faces challenges due to the absence of affordable and efficient transport infrastructure, particularly rail connectivity, which affects its economic viability and patronage. Actual construction work has not started yet.
