Tincan Island, Lagos. |
The level of notoriety in trade crimes in the Tin Can Island port has over the decades been without bound. And it is not as if trade malpractices are not committed in other seaports, but the preference of Tin Can port in Lagos is what has baffled many. Often times, one would learn from customs agents advising their importers against routing certain goods through the premier port, Apapa, but the Tin Can port.
