Tinubu Media Support Group Hails National Single Window Project
By Alabidun Shuaib AbdulRahman
The Tinubu Media Support Group (TMSG) has described the impending National Single Window project as a major step towards transforming the economy by removing barriers to seamless international trade.
In a statement signed by its Chairman, Emeka Nwankpa, and Secretary, Dapo Okubanjo, the group noted that Nigerians will, from the first few months of next year, enjoy efficiency in transactions at the nation’s ports.
The group stated that after 15 months of coordinated work, Nigeria is now on the verge of removing all barriers to effective trade by putting in place a digital platform for trade facilitation at its ports.

The initiative, which is expected to take off within the first quarter of 2026, will integrate all government agencies operating at the ports into a centralised electronic platform for importers and exporters, cutting costs and reducing bureaucracy to the barest minimum.
TMSG expressed confidence that the digital trade platform will introduce a paperless system at the ports, streamline the process into one electronic platform for importers and exporters, and boost revenues as well as improve transparency at the ports.
This, the group said, will ultimately strengthen Nigeria’s global business credibility and put the country firmly on track for its $1 trillion economy projection by accelerating economic growth.
The group hailed President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to reforming the economy and institutionalising efficiency in all facets of national life.
It noted that the President’s administration had taken a bold step in launching the National Single Window project within his first few months in office, which would help eliminate inefficiency and corruption at the ports.
TMSG urged all stakeholders to live up to the President’s expectations by ensuring that all processes are in place for the digital platform long before the deadline.
The group expressed optimism that the National Single Window project would have a positive impact on the economy and improve the business environment in Nigeria.
