The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) has intensified collaboration with the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) and the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) to explore policies aimed at boosting indigenous participation and strengthening the country’s maritime sector.

The Director General of NIMASA, Dr. Dayo Mobereola, disclosed this while receiving the executive members of the Nigerian Merchant Navy Officers and Water Transport Senior Staff Association.

He stated that the Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy is committed to encouraging indigenous stakeholders to invest more in Nigeria’s maritime industry, emphasising that issues such as national carriers and trade terms remain top priorities under the current administration.

Mobereola highlighted NIMASA’s strategic efforts to enhance local participation and attract investment in the sector, with a focus on creating an enabling environment for private investors to thrive.
