The skills acquisition centre of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) in Apapa, one of the six spread across all the geopolitical zones of the country, is enhancing human capacity development through job creation
Our vision is to equip the Nigerian youth with requisite skills for self-dependence, thus tackling one of the challenges of the Blue economy, thereby improving productivity and employment.
NIMASA management is empowering youths through skills acquisition at the centres located at the six geopolitical zones across the country.
The programmes are also to instill a sense of purpose and self-worth, promoting social integration within maritime host communities such as this in the Port city of Apapa.
The vision is tackling unemployment with a long-term goal of enhancing maritime security.
