The present administration of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) is focused on a performance-driven civil service, its Director General/CEO, Dr. Dayo Mobereola has said.
At a strategic retreat to cascade the presidential and ministerial priorities for the maritime and blue economy sector across all levels of the agency, staff deliverables were aligned with the vision of the Federal Government and the supervising Ministry of Marine and Blue Economy.
As part of the retreat, departmental and unit heads signed performance bonds with the executive management, signaling a strong commitment to accountability and measurable outcomes.
Mobereola said: ‘The signing of this bond is not symbolic; it is binding. Every Head of Department and Unit must cascade the outcomes and expectations from this retreat to their subordinates without delay. Anyone found creating bottlenecks or underperforming will be held accountable’.
The performance bonds, he noted, represent a formal pledge to deliver measurable results in line with NIMASA’s Key Performance Indicators and the broader mandate of repositioning the maritime sector for growth.
The retreat also featured robust discussions, peer reviews, and strategy sessions designed to unlock the full potential of Nigeria’s maritime sector, ensuring that the agency’s continues to play a pivotal role in advancing the nation’s blue economy agenda.
