The Single Window project is a cross-government website, which according to the president would expedite cargo movement and optimise inter-African trade, thereby facilitating $2.7bn worth of annual paperless trade.

Tinubu stated: “We cannot afford to lose an estimated $4bn annually to red tape, bureaucracy, delays and corruption at our ports.

“The benefits of this initiative are immense. The paperless trade alone is estimated to bring an annual economic benefit of around $2.7bn US dollars.
