The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) has reaffirmed its commitment to building an efficient, transparent and globally competitive maritime administration through sustained reforms and stronger stakeholder collaboration.
Director-General of NIMASA, Dr. Dayo Mobereola, gave the assurance while receiving the leadership of the Alumni Association of the Maritime Academy of Nigeria (AMANO) during a courtesy visit to the agency’s headquarters in Lagos.
Mobereola said NIMASA would continue to strengthen regulatory oversight, promote innovation and create more opportunities for Nigerian seafarers in line with the policy direction of the Federal Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy.
“Our vision is to build a maritime administration that is efficient, transparent and globally competitive,” he said.
He described the maritime sector as a key driver of Nigeria’s economic growth and identified industry associations such as AMANO as critical partners in developing policies that would unlock the sector’s full potential.
Earlier, AMANO President, Emmanuel Maiguwa, commended NIMASA for deploying an electronic platform for issuing Seafarers’ Certificates, describing it as a major step towards improving efficiency, transparency and accessibility.
