The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, (NIMASA), has undertaken a coordinated maritime enforcement operation, codenamed “Blue-Green,” across key operational areas in Lagos.
The operation deployed Deep Blue maritime assets and a new specialised intelligence capability within the C4i system to identify, assess and prioritise vessels of interest.
Several vessels were boarded and inspected for statutory certification, cargo and voyage documentation, surcharge obligations and Cabotage compliance.
The Director general of the agency, Dr Dayo Mobereola, said “Blue-Green” will now become a recurring intelligence-led enforcement model, with similar operations progressively extended to Port Harcourt, Calabar and Warri.
The operation underscores NIMASA’s commitment to strengthening maritime security, compliance and revenue generation.
