The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT), Uyo Branch, has reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening professional ties with the Maritime Academy of Nigeria (MAN), Oron, Akwa Ibom State, during a recent courtesy visit aimed at advancing maritime, logistics, transport education, and supply chain management across the country.

Led by the Chairman of CILT, Uyo Branch, Mr. Itoro Okon Effiong, the delegation, including key officers from the Oron, Calabar, and Next Generation branches engaged with the management team of the Academy to consolidate an enduring relationship between the two institutions.

In his address, Effiong congratulated the newly appointed Acting Rector of MAN Oron, Dr. Kevin Okonna, praising his remarkable achievements in maritime leadership and educational development.

“We are here to strengthen the professional relationship CILT established with the Academy and to congratulate the newly appointed Acting Rector,” Effiong said. “Your appointment is timely, considering the need for visionary leadership to add value to the maritime and logistics sectors, which are undergoing significant global and local transformations.”

He further emphasized the pivotal role played by the Academy in training seafarers and maritime professionals across Nigeria and Africa, in line with CILT Nigeria’s professional goals.

“We believe that by fostering strong professional partnerships with institutions like the Maritime Academy, we can jointly address critical industry challenges such as capacity building, technological advancement, and policy alignment with international standards,” Effiong added.

In his response, Dr. Okonna expressed appreciation for the visit, lauding CILT’s dedication to maritime and logistics education. He assured the delegation of the Academy’s readiness to continue supporting CILT’s initiatives toward professional development in the sector.

As part of the visit, the CILT delegation presented a commemorative portrait to Dr. Okonna, honoring him as a distinguished member of the Institute.

KNOW YOUR BODY PARTS: The Liver The liver is a vital organ located in the right upper abdomen, playing a crucial role in metabolism, detoxification, and digestion. It’s the largest solid organ in the body and is responsible for filtering blood, maintaining blood sugar levels, regulating clotting, and synthesizing essential proteins. The liver also stores energy, removes toxins, and produces bile, which aids in digestion Liver functions: · Metabolism and Detoxification: The liver processes nutrients from the blood, breaks down and balances them, and creates essential substances for the body. It detoxifies harmful substances like drugs and alcohol, converting them into less toxic forms for excretion. The liver plays a role in the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. It stores glycogen (a form of glucose) and vitamins, releasing them when the body needs them. · Digestion: The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to help digest fats. Bile also helps in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. · Blood Regulation: The liver regulates blood sugar levels by storing and releasing glucose. It synthesizes clotting factors, which are essential for blood clotting. It removes old red blood cells and processes bilirubin, a byproduct of red blood cell breakdown. · Other Functions: The liver plays a role in immunity, helping to fight off infections. It produces proteins that are involved in the immune response. The liver also stores iron and other essential minerals. Frequently Asked Questions About The Liver · What are the first signs of a bad liver? The initial signs of liver problems can be vague and subtle, often including fatigue, nausea, and loss of appetite. As the liver’s condition worsens, more specific symptoms may emerge, such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), itchy skin, dark urine, and light-colored stools. Abdominal pain, especially in the upper right quadrant, can also indicate liver issues. · Where do you feel liver pain? Liver pain is typically felt in the upper right abdomen, just beneath the rib cage. It can manifest as a dull, throbbing pain, a stabbing sensation, or a general feeling of discomfort in that area. In some cases, liver pain might be felt as an ache in the right shoulder or back. · What does liver pain feel like? How liver pain feels can vary from person to person, depending on the cause. However, most people often develop one or more of the following symptoms: Dull, persistent aches in the upper abdomen A feeling of fullness or bloating Sharp, stabbing pains that come and go Tenderness when the upper abdomen is touched · What is the best way to cleanse your liver? If you haven’t been working out, start indulging in a regular exercise regime to allow the toxins to come out of your body. Yoga, going running, hitting the gym, or a simple sauna session can also prove effective. If you want a natural liver cleanse, sweating is the way to go. · How to know if the liver is swollen? What are the symptoms of an enlarged liver? You likely won’t notice an enlarged liver on your own. In some severe cases, you might notice a feeling of bloating or fullness in your belly or an ache in your upper right abdomen. · What is the best drink to flush your liver? Many citrus fruits, including lemon, can be added to water to help stimulate and flush out the liver. Lemons are high in nutrients like vitamin C and antioxidants
