  "summary": "The Federal Government of Nigeria is set to commence testing the second phase of the National Single Window project next week, with the aim of streamlining export procedures. The Project Coordinator, Tola Fakolade, announced this at a press briefing in Abuja, highlighting that 156,026 import licences and permits have been processed through the platform since its launch in March. The second phase will focus on exports and will involve the centralised processing of export licences, permits and certificates, as well as the standardised processing of export-related forms required by the Central Bank of Nigeria and applications for import duty exemption certificates. User acceptance testing for the second phase will begin next week, allowing agencies and users to provide feedback and recommend improvements before the system's launch.",
