ISPS Implementation: NIMASA Shuts Non-Compliant Facilities

The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), in its role as the Designated Authority, DA, for implementing the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code in Nigeria, has shut down ShellPlux and TMDK Terminals, both located in the Ijegun-Egba area      of      Lagos.

 

A statement by the Agency disclosed that the enforcement action is sequel to persistent non-compliance by the facilities with the provisions of the ISPS Code, despite several formal warnings.

“The move aligns with global best practices and is in accordance with Section 79(f) of the ISPS Code Implementation Regulations (2014), which mandates the closure of any facility that remains in violation for over three calendar months” NIMASA said

Speaking on the development, the Director General of NIMASA, Dr. Dayo Mobereola, emphasized the Agency’s commitment to safeguarding Nigeria’s maritime domain.

“In wielding the big stick, we acted only as a last resort. Our primary goal is to enforce safety and security practices across Nigerian ports and jetties. At a time when we are collaborating with the United States Coast Guard to lift the conditions of entry on vessels from Nigeria, we cannot   afford    lapses         that   jeopardize   our          progress” the NIMASA Boss said.

Dr. Mobereola added that the facilities would be reopened once all compliance requirements are satisfactorily met, acknowledging their important role in service delivery and trade facilitation.

“Our Honorable Minister of Marine and Blue Economy Adegboyega Oyetola is committed to enhanced sustainable trade facilitation for the maritime sector in a safe and conducive environment” he added

The ISPS Code, an amendment to the SOLAS Convention, was developed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to enhance maritime and port security, particularly for facilities engaged in international trade, NIMASA clarifies.
