    NEW AFRICA BUSINESS NEWS ( NABN ) Freetown, Sierra Leone- Trending to its enterprise, the leading transnational terminal operator – APM has financed $348 on in Apapa Port. In a not too distant feature, the corporation previously developed two new multimillion dollars state-of-the-art Mobile Harbor Cranes (MHCs) to increase service delivery at the port, which was commissioned by the Managing Director of Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) – Hadiza Bala Usman, in Lagos.

    Nonetheless, the contemporary cranes were obtained as part of APM Terminals’ following enterprise of $80 million (N33.6billion) for the 2020-2021, generating the total involvement by the firm in Apapa since 2006 to $438 million (about N184billion), which is the highest by any private terminal operator in the country.

    Bala Usman on her part, explained the ports were concessional by the Federal Government to modify port efficiency and open government reserves for other developmental purposes. She said cargo volumes at the port have vouched a continual rise due to favorable government policies. She said NPA has proceeded to commit with private terminal operators at the port to rise up to the challenge of the high cargo traffic. The engagement with the operators, according to her, is resulting in substantial results as evidenced by the commissioning of the two new mobile harbor cranes, among others.

    Current Outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19) Disease- Coronavirus advisory information, World Health Organization & United States, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

    Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV). A novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a new strain that has not been previously identified in humans.

    Coronaviruses are zoonotic, meaning they are transmitted between animals and people.  Detailed investigations found that SARS-CoV was transmitted from civet cats to humans and MERS-CoV from dromedary camels to humans. Several known coronaviruses are circulating in animals that have not yet infected humans.

    Common signs of infection include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath and breathing difficulties. In more severe cases, infection can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure and even death.

    Standard recommendations to prevent infection spread include regular hand washing, covering mouth and nose when coughing and sneezing, thoroughly cooking meat and eggs. Avoid close contact with anyone showing symptoms of respiratory illness such as coughing and sneezing. Source- WHO
