Abstract:

 This study examined the evaluation of delay factors at Nigerias Apapa seaports. The specific study objective was to evaluate the various delay factors at Nigerian seaports and the specific delay factors affecting the Apapa seaports. The primary method of data collection was via questionnaire application and Taro Yamanes population sampling method while results were analyzed using the ANOVA statistics. The findings revealed a statistically significant effect of port delay factors at the seaports on national and economic output. The study concludes that port delay factors at the seaports significantly affect economic activities in Nigeria and there should be the creation of more evacuation corridors at the seaports to facilitate prompt service delivery and improve the countrys ease of doing business among others. JEL Classification : HE199 , HE323 , HE380 , HE561 , HE730.
