– Public-Private Partnerships in Nigeria’s Blue Economy
The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) is actively encouraging both local and international investors to explore opportunities within Nigeria’s Blue Economy, particularly in the maritime sector. At the 36th Enugu International Trade Fair on April 15, 2025, NIMASA’s Director General, Dr. Dayo Mobereola, emphasized the agency’s commitment to implementing the Federal Government’s “Renewed Hope Agenda” by fostering inclusive economic growth and reducing foreign dominance in shipping.
Initiatives include supporting local operators in acquiring vessels, establishing a National Carrier Line, creating maritime training institutions, and launching the Public Sector Cargo Support Programme (PSCPP) to develop a captive freight market for local operators.
