The Minister who was the former Managing Director of the Agency disclosed that while he was at the helm of affairs there, he did not only maintain the amount of revenue set by his predecessors, but surpassed it.

The minister officially commissioning the boats flanked to his right by NIWA MD, George Moghalu.

” When I came here, a lot of people were wondering if we are going to succeed. But I did not only sustain the level of revenue that was sustained by my predecessors, but I even surpassed them,” he said.              

He commended the Managing Director NIWA, Dr. George Moghalu, for the giant strides attained, saying: “Seriously, MD,  l am happy I came here today. If didn’t come, I would not have known the strides you have achieved. Without doubts, I think you have made the greatest impacts of all the Managing Directors that have served the Authority”. “Your tenure has moved the Authority from level 5 to  Level 9”.

The boats being commissioned.

He described inland water way transportation as the cheapest and safest means of moving goods and persons and key to development of any country, especially that endowed with water.

Furthermore, the Minister observed that Nigeria is blessed in that regard as 28 States of the Federation can be accessed by water, hence the need to develop the sector.

While promising to provide support in any capacity, he called on the MD to quickly  operationalize the Marina Area Office in Lagos which has been identified as a hub for trans- shipping cargoes from Lagos through the  Intercoastal routes like Warri and Onitsha.

Earlier, the Managing Director, NIWA, Dr. Moghalu, informed  that in less than a year, the Agency commissioned  more than twenty  patrol boats, as well as a house boat, tugboat and water ambulance for distribution to various Area offices of the Authority.                          

According to him, the act is part of the Agency’s vision to ensure that the nation’s Inland  waterways provides a truly safe, efficient, cost effective and alternative mode of transportation of goods and persons as well as become competitive and attractive.                         

Speaking further, Moghalu said: “the huge opportunities that abounds in the nation’s Inland waterways can only be maximized if concerted efforts are geared towards the development of infrastructure and proper funding to make the waterways attractive and competitive to players”.

Also, he disclosed that the Authority has licensed several companies for the  transportation of cargoes across the waterways in Nigeria, especially from Lagos so as to decongest it and open up other Inland ports.
