The newly inaugurated Governing Board of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) has pledged full backing for the agency’s Executive Management to meet its Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) under a performance bond signed with the Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy.
At its maiden meeting in Lagos, the NIMASA Board Chairman, Hon. Yusuf Hamisu Abubakar, said the KPIs would serve as the benchmark for assessing NIMASA’s progress, stressing the Board’s resolve to work hand-in-hand with management to shape policy and deliver tangible results.
“We are determined to help the Agency achieve the activities set out in the performance bond. This is about measurable outcomes, and we will stand firmly with management to realise a robust Blue Economy for Nigeria,” Abubakar said.
Meanwhile, NIMASA Director General and CEO, Dr. Dayo Mobereola, welcomed the Board members and reaffirmed the agency’s commitment to its core mandate of promoting and regulating shipping, maritime safety, security, and marine environment protection.
He noted that the Board’s support would enhance NIMASA’s capacity to attract investment, improve maritime infrastructure, and boost human capital in the sector, all in line with the Federal Government’s sustainable Blue Economy agenda.
“We will continue to work closely with the Board and stakeholders to create an enabling environment and deliver on initiatives that strengthen Nigeria’s maritime position,” Mobereola assured.
