Jamoh Hails Supreme Court Over Inland Waterways Jurisdiction Judgement

by Joshua
January 10, 2024
in Featured, News

The Director General of Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA); Dr Bashir Jamoh has described the recent Supreme Court Judgement reaffirming the Authority of the Federal Government through the Nigerian Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA) to control activities in Nigerian Inland Waterways, as a win-win judgement.

 

Reacting via his official X handle, @JamohBashir, he noted that this should bring to an end issues of ambiguity and multiple taxation; as states will no longer levy investors, being a responsibility of the government at the Federal level; thus improving the ease of doing business in the maritime sector. He added that it would ultimately attract more investment from both local and international investors.

 

While noting that the Supreme Court ruling will go a long way in the Federal Government’s effort to exploit potentials of the over 10,000 Kilometers of inland waters in the country, Jamoh advised all parties concerned; particularly the State Governments; to embrace the judgement and collaborate with NIWA and NIMASA. This he said will help to better harness Nigeria’s maritime potentials for the benefit of all Nigerians.
