By Ebenezer William
Honorable Minister of Transportation, Mr. Mu’azu Jaji Sambo has urged Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency to expedite action in deploying the Modular Floating Dockyard which the agency purchased sometime ago.
This executive order was told to newsmen by the Director General of NIMASA, Dr. Bashir Jamoh in Lagos, where he explained the benefits of the facility was one of the hanging fruits that are ready for the taking by Nigerians.
The feat in question according to Dr. Jamoh would be jointly acheived by the Nigerian Ports Authority in collaboration with NIMASA.
To make it a reality , a memorandum of understanding has been signed by the Nigerian Immigration Service and NIMASA to ensure that the Dockyard is operational as soon as possible.
According to Jamoh, both NIMASA and NPA are set to complete the NIMASA Modular Floating Dockyard with the installation of dolphins and repair of facilities in the NPA continental shipyard facility where the floating dock would be operated from.
