Shaking it for four minutes isn't enough, it can take several hours or even up to 24 hours to dry out the charging port. Leave your iPhone upright with the charging port facing down to let any excess water slowly drain out, in a dry area with some airflow.
If that still doesn't do it, your charging port has likely been water-damaged. Apple never repaired charging ports or begin with, and they definitely won't now with water damage. So you'll likely need to purchase a new iPhone.

Sorry, but water damage can't be repaired and is often fatal. Apple typically won't attempt to repair a phone with liquid damage. You can take it to your closest Apple Store Genius Bar, but I'd be prepared to purchase a replacement phone.
You make an appointment at the Genius Bar of your local Apple Store. The phone will almost certainly have to. be replaced. Liquid damage is not repairable.
How do I fix a water-damaged iPhone charging port?
