Licensed customs agents and members of the National Shippers Association of Nigeria have called for reforms to the Nigerian Ports Authority’s (NPA) E-call up system—popularly known as the Eto ticket—before it is expanded to the ports in Warri, Calabar, and Onne.
Speaking at a media briefing on Wednesday in Port Harcourt, the group called for a comprehensive overhaul of the system, citing widespread corruption, operational inefficiencies, and inadequate infrastructure as major concerns.
The resolution, reported by the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), was jointly signed by Innocent Akuvue, President of the National Shippers Association of Nigeria; Joshua Ahuama, Zonal Coordinator of the Eastern Association of Nigeria Customs Agents; and Emeka Nwosu, National Vice Chairman of the Council of Managing Directors of Customs Licensed Agents.
