The President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari , has approved the appointment of Bashir Jamoh as the Director-General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency.
, Jamoh replaces Dakuku Peterside who was appointed in 2016 to head the maritime agency.
In February, the agency faced probe by the House of Representatives for allegedly failing to audit its account for six years. On Tuesday, Peterside again incurred the wrath of the National Assembly by failing to appear personally in response to summons by the joint committee investigating activities of foreign vessel owners in Nigeria.
