Jamoh said that with the creation of this “long overdue ministry”, it will give a huge boost to plans and programmes the President intended to deploy to take Nigeria out of economic doldrums.

While expressing optimism that the maritime industry is large enough to adequately engage the teeming youths in the country, the NIMASA boss urged them to take advantage of the opportunities in the Nigerian maritime sector.

He said, “I want to commend our President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for creating the Marine and Blue Economy Ministry, and appointing Hon. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo to man its affairs. There are new opportunities around us, and I’m glad Nigeria, with the creation of this ministry, will explore the concept of blue economy.

“The blue economy is the sustainable use of ocean resources for economic growth, improved livelihoods, and jobs while preserving the health of the ocean ecosystem. Blue Economy Activities include Maritime shipping, Fishing & aquaculture, Coastal tourism, Renewable energy, Water desalination, Undersea cabling, Seabed extractive industries & deep sea mining, Marine genetic resources and Biotechnology.
