(230921) -- NAIROBI, Sept. 21, 2023 (Xinhua) -- This aerial photo taken on Sept. 20, 2023 shows a view of the Nairobi Terminus Station of the China built Mombasa-Nairobi Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) in Nairobi, Kenya. In 2017, the SGR, built and operated by China Road and Bridge Corporation, was officially opened to traffic. As the first railway built since Kenya's independence, it runs 480 km between the capital Nairobi and the port city of Mombasa. Cutting the travel time between the two cities by five hours, it also reduces overall logistics costs by about 40 percent. (Xinhua/Han Xu)

    Lekki Port And The Lekki Free Trade Zone - Nigeria

    An aerial drone photo shows a view of the Lekki Free Trade Zone in Lagos, Nigeria, on Nov. 30, 2024. The Lekki Port and the Lekki Free Trade Zone are both located in the Lekki Peninsula of Lagos, Nigeria's largest city. The Lekki Port, a commercial cooperation project constructed by China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd., stands as Nigeria's first deep seaport and one of the largest of its kind in West Africa. The port began commercial operations in April 2023, with a designed capacity to handle 1.2 million standard containers annually. The Lekki Free Trade Zone, developed and operated by China Railway Construction Corporation, spans 30 square kilometers. The duo of port and free trade zone gave birth to a synergistic development model, which significantly shortens cargo transport time, boosts Nigeria's foreign trade, and injects new momentum into the local economy.
