Measurement of Efficiency Level in Nigerian Seaport after Reform Policy Imple...IOSR Journals
This paper focuses on the impact of reforms on port performance using Onne and Rivers ports as a reference point. It analyses the pre and post reform eras of the ports in terms of their performance. The reforms took effect from 1996 after the Federal Government of Nigeria concessioned the ports to private investors. Parameters such as Ship traffic, Cargo throughput, Ship turn round time, Berth Occupancy and personnel were used as variables for the assessment. Secondary Data were collected from the Nigerian Ports Authority and Integrated Logistic Services Nigeria (Intels) for the period 2001 to 2010 and analyzed using Data Envelopment Analysis to assess the efficiency of the port. Analysis revealed a continuous improvement in the overall efficiency of both Ports Since 2006 when the new measure was introduced. Average Ship turn-around time improved in the ports due to modern and fast cargo handling equipment and more cargo handling space which were provided. There is an increase in Ship traffic calling at the ports, resulting in increased cargo throughput and berth occupancy rate at ports of Onne and Rivers. The reform also led to more private investment in the ports’ existing and new facilities and the introduction of a World Class service in port operation. This study concludes that the Ports of Onne and Rivers are performing better under the reform programme of the Federal Government of Nigeria. It finally recommends the urgent need for a regulator to appraise the performance of the reform programme from time to time as provided by the agreement and for the full adoption and utilization of management information system (MIS) to aid performance efficiency.

Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

character code, e.g. whether approved by Government, by Customs, or
based on a user requirement not necessarily recognised by an
authority, etc. It is also intended to show the status of checking, e.g.
that function indicators are not verified.
7. INFRASTRUCTURE
• Infrastructure in Senegal is on its way to being efficient and up-to-date.
• Senegal currently spends $911 million on infrastructure each year, almost 11%
of its GDP, but $312 million is wasted due to inefficiencies of various kinds,
associated mainly with underpricing in the power and water sectors, poor
financial management of utilities, and inefficient allocation of resources across
sectors.
• According to the World Bank, Senegal cannot meet standards of efficiency
because it has an annual funding gap of $578 million which could be closed by
increased investment by the private sector.
• According to the World Bank’s Global Competitiveness Index (GCI), which
assesses the “competitiveness landscape” of a country’s economy, Senegal
was ranked 112 with a score of 3.74 for the 2016-2017 year.
• The score is also an indicator of the level of transport, electricity, water and
information-and-communication-technology (ICT) sectors.
• A number of developmental agencies, such as the African Development Bank
(AFDB) have projects in Senegal.
9. Transport and Urban Mobility Project
• The development objectives of the Transport and Urban Mobility Project
for Senegal are to:
– (i) improve effective road management, maintenance, and safety, both
at national level and in urban areas; and
– (ii) help improve safety, efficiency, and environmental quality of public
transport in the Greater Dakar Area (GDA).
10.
11. Road Transport
• Senegal’s severe traffic congestion has for years caused commuters
headaches, and has hampered the delivery of goods across the West African
country.
• Economists estimate that poor road infrastructure costs Senegal about 4.6
percent of its annual gross domestic product.
• To help Senegal improve its transport infrastructure and boost its economy, IFC
and the World Bank, in partnership with Senegal’s government and Eiffage, a
construction and concessions company, created a public-private partnership to
build a landmark toll road connecting Dakar to other parts of the country.
• IFC served as global coordinator for the 230 million euro toll road project,
which, when complete, will run 25 kilometers from Diamniadio to Dakar,
creating a new and efficient gateway to the country’s capital and economic
center.
• IFC provided 22.5 million euros in long-term debt facilities alongside 40 million
euros in long-term financing from the West African Development Bank, the
African Development Bank, and CBAO, a Senegalese commercial bank.
12. • The World Bank played a key role in structuring the innovative toll road
concession, the first of its kind in West Africa.
• Sanjivi Rajasingham, World Bank Transport Sector Manager for the Africa
Region, said, “The private sector has a key role to play in accelerating the
development of infrastructure in Africa, and the World Bank Group is
committed to helping governments leverage their role for the benefit of
citizens”.
• The existing network of 16,496 km of roads is adequate to provide basic
regional, national, and international connectivity, linking Dakar to
international border crossings and provincial capitals in the interior.
• This is generally true even if Senegal’s road density indicators, both for
classified and total network, are lower than African averages for low- and
middle-income countries
• Paved: 5,957 km (includes 72 km of expressways)
• Unpaved: 10,539 km (2017)
13. Senegal’s Road Indicators
Source: Gwilliam and others 2008. Derived from the AICD national database
(www.infrastructureafrica.org/aicd/tools/data). Note: *2009 data (AL).GIS = geographic information system; AADT =
average annual daily traffic.
14. Rail Transport
• Senegal has a binational railway line (between Dakar and Bamako), jointly
owned with Mali, which is part of one of the main West African transport
corridors.
• Senegal has 906 km of railway at 1,000 mm (3 ft 3 3⁄8 in) gauge.
• This is part of the Dakar–Niger Railway which crosses the border to Mali.
• The railway is operated by Transrail, managed by the Belgian
company Vecturis.
• Dakar–Saint-Louis railway
– This was the first railway line in French West Africa when it opened in
1885. It is now out of service.
• Train Express Regional
– This line is under construction in 2016 and will link Dakar with the new
international airport.
15. Train Express Regional
• The Train Express Regional (TER) is a proposed rail line in Senegal to
connect Dakar with the Blaise Diagne International Airport. It will be built
by French companies Engie and Thales.
• The contract is valued at €2 billion and has raised some criticism due to
the exhorbitant cost.
• Travel time between the city and the airport is expected to be under 50
minutes. The rolling stock will be Alstom's Coradia Polyvalent dual-mode
multiple units.
• The line will be built in two stages, with the first covering 36 km from the
city of Dakar to Diamniadio, while the second stage covering 19 km more
to the airport. Construction is expected to take 26 months beginning in
the third quarter of 2016, completion in late 2018.
16.
17. Airport
• Senegal is an emerging hub and a major player in air transportation in West
Africa, ranking only second to Nigeria.
• Senegal’s air transport sector accounts for more than 2.6 million seats per year
across all traffic categories and has experienced rapid growth.
• The bulk of Senegal’s air transport market is international (around 85 percent
of total seats), excluding flights to Sub-Saharan and North Africa.
• Senegal’s position in the international air transport market has been
strengthened recently as security at the airport was certified by the
International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and rated satisfactory by the
U.S. Federal Aviation Administration/ International Aviation Safety Assessment
(FAA/IASA).
• The FAA rating has led to additional traffic from the United States, since Dakar
Airport is the only West African airport to have acquired such certification.
18. • Airports - with paved runways:
– total: 9
• over 3,047 m : 2
• 1,524 to 2,437 m : 6
• 914 to 1,523 m : 1 (2017)
• Airports - with unpaved runways:
– total: 11
• 1,524 to 2,437 m : 7
• 914 to 1,523 m : 3
• under 914 m : 1 (2013)
• Annual passenger traffic on registered air carriers: 115,355
• Annual freight traffic on registered air carriers: 3,095,523 mt-km (2015)
19.
20. Sea Ports
• Senegal has 531 km of coastline and shoreline.
• Has 8 Ports
– Port of Kaolack
– Port of Ziguinchor
– Port of Rufisque
– Port of Dakar
– M'Bao Oil Terminal
– Port of Karabane (Carabane)
– Port of Saint-Louis.
– Port of Lyndiane.
21. Port of Dakar
• The Port of Dakar is by far the most important port in Senegal and one of the most
important ports in West Africa.
• The Dakar port is predominately a hybrid tool port: its infrastructure and most of
its operations— including some frontline operations—remain in public hands.
• The Dakar port has transit traffic arrangements with Mauritania; in fact 25 percent
of that country’s import volume is moved by road from Dakar, in large part
because Mauritania’s port at Nouakchott cannot meet the sizable demand of the
country’s potential container transshipment traffic.
• The overall safety of maritime traffic improved significantly in the early 2000s, with
the adoption of an updated maritime code and improvements in navigation and
signaling equipment at the ports of Dakar, Kaolack, and Ziguinchor.
• A new 25-year concession contract was granted to Dubai Ports World on October
8, 2007. This concession includes the development and operation of the existing
container terminal as well as the building and operation of a new container
terminal at Port du Futur.
22. • It is also the ninth-largest port on the African continent.
• The port is one of the largest deep-water seaports along the West African coast.
• Its deep-draft structure and 640-foot-wide (200 m) access channel allows round-
the-clock access to the port.
• The port’s location at the extreme western point of Africa, at the crossroad of the
major sea-lanes linking Europe to South America, makes it a natural port of call
for shipping companies.
• The involvement of the private sector has improved the financial viability of the
Port of Dakar—handling costs have fallen substantially, particularly due to the
reduction of dwell times in the port.
• To put things in perspective, until 2000 Abidjan captured about 80 percent of all
transit traffic to and from Mali. From 2003 that figure had dropped to just 14
percent, as traffic was diverted to Dakar in Senegal, Lomé in Togo, and Tema in
Ghana.
• Dakar soon became the most important port for Mali, capturing one-third of its
traffic.
23. • Time to export and import is just one-third of the level of other Sub-Saharan
African countries and about the level of the Organisation for Economic Co-
operation and Development (OECD) countries.
• Costs of importing to Senegal are lower than the regional average, but 1.6
times the costs of importing to an OECD country.
• Costs of exporting from Senegal are now 25 percent lower than the Sub-
Saharan African average and at the same level as those faced by OECD
countries.
Costs of exporting and importing

25. Utilities Infrastructure
• Water supply and sanitation in Senegal is characterized by a relatively high
level of access compared to the average of Sub-Saharan Africa.
• One of the interesting features is a public-private partnership (PPP) that has
been operating in Senegal since 1996.
• Between 1996 and 2014, water sales doubled to 131 million cubic meters per
year and the number of household connections increased by 165% to more
than 638,000.
• According to the World Bank, "the Senegal case is regarded as a model of
public-private partnership in sub-Saharan Africa".
• Total Fresh water withdrawal: 2.22 cu km/yr
• Fresh Water Withdrawal per capita: 190 cu m/yr

and rural areas (63%).
• For sanitation, access rates display a same significant gap between urban (66%) and
rural (35%) areas. In urban areas, 75% have access to water connections in their house or
yard and another 17% rely on water kiosks and standpipes.
• Concerning sanitation, only 19% of the urban population are connected to sewers while
another 60% are served by septic tanks or improved household-level latrines.

27. • Energy Sector in Senegal
• Senegal's major source of electricity is mostly diesel and gas, with
an installed capacity of 731MW.
• Electricity generation, mainly on a
Build-Own-Operate (BOO) basis, is open to the
private sector.
• Senelec, the sole buyer, signs power purchase contracts
with independent power producers (IPPs).
• Electricity production
• The Manantali Dam in Mali generates some of Senegal's electricity needs.
• The General Electric/GTI Dakar IPP, which supplies approximately 20 percent of
Senelec’s electrical needs, was commissioned in 1998. It has an installed capacity
of 56 MW.
• On-line since January 2008, the second IPP Kounoune 1 – 67.5 MW - was partially
funded by the International Finance Corporation, with Mitsubishi and Matelec
S.A.L, a division of the Doumet group from Lebanon, as strategic partners.
• Some hydroelectricity generated from the Manantali Dam in Mali is split between
Senegal, Mali and Mauritania. Manantali has an installed capacity of 200 MW
dispatched as follows: 52% for Mali, 15% for Mauritania and 33% for Senegal
(66 MW).
28. • In 2016 another IPP operator, ContourGlobal commissioned an 88 MW
diesel power plant with Wartsila engines and a steam turbine at Cap des
Biches.
• Senegal’s national electricity access rate is relatively high (55 percent),
but this falls to below 30 percent in rural areas.
• The Government of Senegal has set targets to achieve 60 percent access
in 2017 and universal access in 2025.
• Rural electrification runs on a concessions program whereby ten distinct
rural electrification concession areas can be awarded to bidders in a
competitive tender.
• The energy sector has made remarkable progress with an average cut-off
time that has increased from 912 hours in 2011 to 72 hours in 2016.
• The Doing Business Report ranks Senegal in 162nd place out of 190
countries in getting electricity.

30. Banking Infrastructure
• The financial system in Senegal is dominated by the banking sector.
• It is composed of 19 commercial banks concentrated in the three largest cities.
Banks make up about 90 percent of the financial system.
• The five largest banks account for 66 percent of assets and collect 79 percent of
deposits.
• A large number of microfinance institutions (MFIs; 234 establishments) supply
limited financial services targeting lower-income households. Although they cover
both urban and rural regions, about half of the sector’s activity is concentrated in
greater Dakar.
• Insurance companies (25) account for most of the remainder of the domestic
financial system.
• The banking sector is dominated by subsidiaries of French, Nigerian, Moroccan,
and pan-African banks (regional banking groups that are originally African).
Nonresidents also have stakes in banks majority-owned by residents.
31. • The government has minority stakes (ranging from about 10 to 25 percent of equity) in
a number of banks.
• MFIs represent a small but rising share of the Senegalese financial sector. MFIs focus on
basic services such as savings accounts and microcredit.

34. Information & Communication
Technology Infrastructure
• In Senegal, 83% of the population has a mobile telephone with 40% of these
being smartphones allowing users to access the internet. This has seen
tremendous growth in the country.
• In 2013 20.90% of the population was using the internet, compared to 1.9% in
Ethiopia or 12.30% in Ghana.
• At an average of 10% of GDP, Senegal’s ICT investments easily beat South
Africa, Kenya, Egypt, and the world average and as more of the population
gets online, the government is seeking to meet the demand whilst actively
growing the sector and fostering innovation within the country.
• In 2009, the government launched it’s own intranet resource centre which
allows it to use e-government to strengthen the use of Information Technology
and Communication (ICT) for the development of the country.
35. • In the first phase of education services, five universities were
interconnected with very high bandwidth, providing them the
opportunity to share their teaching resources via videoconferencing and
other distance learning techniques.
• This type of development in ICT has seen Senegal ranked 14th in Africa
by the 2017 International Telecommunication Union (ITU) ICT
Development Index.
• There have also been high investments in the ICT education sector as
well, with the country getting gongs as a key provider of ICT skills.
• With around 90,000 well-educated students produced from tertiary
institutions in Senegal, it produces a large number of students with
excellent ICT skills.

37. Technology park
• A further step in this direction is the West African nation’s ambitious project to
create Africa’s version of silicon valley, located about 40km from the capital
Dakar. Work has already begun on the $120million “Diamniadio Technology
Park”, funded by the government and the African Development Bank
(AfDB), which will feature data and higher education centres.
• But ICT developments are not solely confined to the park. The Dakar Digital
City initiative, launched by the government in partnership with the country’s
leading mobile operator Tigo, established a free wifi zone at the capital’s
Independence square, with plans to establish more of them in big public
arenas all over the city.
• The digitisation of Senegal will also see developments take place in
Ndiass, Sebikotane, St. Louis and Ziguinchor.
• Technology hub Bantalabs have established offices in Dakar - the
company provides open source web development, consulting and training.
They also organise workshops and community events in Europe and West
Africa.
• CTIC Dakar,one of the leading technology business incubators in sub-Saharan
Africa, was also launched in the country in 2011.
38. • Facebook invests: Social media giant, Facebook, has also now set its
sights on Senegal – in order to launch Internet.org (a project aimed at
bringing Internet access to two thirds of the world that are not
connected) as well as more than a dozen free basic services within the
country.
• According to Facebook, the services will be available to Tigo SIM card
holders.
• Senegal is now the sixth country in Africa, and third country worldwide,
where Internet.org is available.
• The free basic services that will be available through Internet.org to
consumers with a Tigo SIM card will include: AccuWeather, BabyCenter &
MAMA, BBC News, BING, UNICEF, Ebola Info, Facebook, UNICED Facts for
Life, Girl Effect by Nike Foundation, Malaria No More, Messenger,
Wattpad, Wikipedia, Wiwisport, Dakaractu.com, Senjob.
39. • There are still areas the country needs to work on. Even though specific
legislation on cybercrime has been enacted, Senegal does not have an
official national cyber security strategy and, since there is no
educational and professional training program for raising awareness,
higher education and certification on cybercrime, this looks set to be a
long process.

52. CONCLUSION
• Infrastructure in Senegal is much better than that in other developing
countries, but it still needs a lot of improvement.
• Most of this work cannot be completed without significant increases in
funding that will have to come from private and foreign investment.
• Senegal has the potential to raise its GCI score through improvements to
its infrastructure and should do what it can to garner more financial
support from other nations and independent organizations.
