“We mentor states on Port and Flag State Admin and the SPOMO Act”

The Director General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, NIMASA, Dr Bashir Jamoh, OFR has declared that Nigeria’s maritime industry is  the fastest growing on the African continent.

Speaking  during the interactive session by the Senate Committee on Marine Transport with Chief Executive Officers of Agencies of Government in the Nation’s maritime sector, noted that the Agency has embraced collaboration and peer review exercises with other MARADs  on the African continent and globally.

“We regularly undertake peer review exercises amongst maritime Administrations not just on the African continent, but globally. We have learnt a lot from reviews with the South African Maritime Administration SAMSA, and Maritime Port Authority of Singapore MPA. We have also provided mentorship for maritime administrations on the African continent. Countries like Gambia, Sierra Leone and Ghana amongst others have come for mentorship on various issues such as Port and Flag State Administration and the SPOMO Act”, he said.

Speaking earlier, Chairman Senate Committee on Marine Transport, Senator Wasiu Sanni Eshinlokun noted that the interactive session is to ensure that the legislature and the implementing organs of government are on the same page to ensure Nigerians enjoy benefits accruable from the blue economy.

“With the determination and commitment of the Federal Government under the able leadership of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu towards reviving the economy, I believe that better days are ahead and the current difficulty will surely come to pass.

“It is in this regard that the Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy was created with the mandate of coordinating and supervising the activities and operations in the maritime sector. The creation of the Ministry is born out of the enormous opportunities that are in the marine and blue economy and the desire to fully harness them”, the Chairman said.

On his part, the Rector, Maritime Academy of Nigeria, (MAN) Oron, Commodore Emmanuel Duja Effedua during his presentation acknowledged the role NIMASA played in transforming the academy to be one of the best in the world

“Today, the Academy has the state of the art equipment in training seafarers comparable to the best anywhere in the world and NIMASA’S commitment to funding the academy played a major role in the achievements recorded in the academy,” Effedua said.

The Senate Committee on Marine Transport is in Lagos as part of their oversight functions, to receive briefings from the Parastatals under the Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy Ministry such as NIMASA, Nigerian Shippers’ Council (NSC); Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA); National Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA). Others are Council for the Regulation of Freight Forwarders of Nigeria (CRFFN) and Maritime Academy of Nigeria (MAN).
