NIMASA bags ‘Public Service Organisation of the year’ award
The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) has bagged the “Public Organisation of the Year” Award, organised by TELL Communication Limited to mark the maiden edition of its yearly Awards for Excellence.
Its Director-General, Dr. Dakuku Peterside, received the award at the Civic Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos.
The promoters of the event said NIMASA merited the award because of the rebranding initiative of Peterside and the management team aligning with other maritime agencies.
“In April, NIMASA, in conjunction with the International Maritime Organisation (IMO), organised the third conference of the Association of African Maritime Administrations in Abuja, Nigeria. This is in line with IMO policy in assisting and enhancing the capacity of maritime administrations in Africa in the adherence and implementation of IMO instruments.
“One of the benefits of the conference to Nigeria was the election of Dakuku Peterside as the chairman of the continental body.
Speaking with The Nation on the sideline of the event, Dr Peterside said the rebranding of NIMASA was conceptualised by his administration to inject a breath of fresh air into the agency they were appointed to lead.
“The Medium Term Strategic Growth Plan covering three years is built around our core mission to Reform, Restructure and Reposition NIMASA for sustainable growth and development of the maritime industry.”
