The Director General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) Dr. Dakuku Peterside has assured cadets of the Nigerian Seafarers Development Programme (NSDP) that the Agency has concluded arrangements to provide them with the necessary sea time experience necessary for the issuance of their Certificates of Competency.

Peterside, who said this while receiving 100 cadets of the scheme upon graduation from the University of Perpetual Help in Philippines, also congratulated them for successfully studies without reports of misconduct.

He commended the graduates for being good ambassadors of Nigeria and assured them that modalities have been put in place to ensure that they get the necessary sea time experience that will make them complete seafarers.
