NIMASA, NIALS decry crimes on Nigerian waterways NIMASA MaritimeSecurity NIALS Nigeria

The Director-General of NIMASA, Dr Dakuku Peterside, said with the world’s waters accounting over 80 per cent of transportation requirements in the global trading supply chain network across established international routes and trade lanes, the threats of piracy, armed robbery at sea and other maritime crimes remain a global concern.

According to him, the Gulf of Guinea, sadly, has been at the epicentre of maritime security discussions globally, given the incidents recorded in the region, adding that the challenge of maritime insecurity has been further compounded by a deficit of legislation to address the challenge. Peterside however noted that the discussion at the seminar for judges will facilitate an understanding of the Suppression of Piracy and Other Maritime Offences Act, and the collaborative mechanisms between the Judiciary and enforcement agencies in the implementation of the Act.
