Even as uncertainties still surround its existence as Nigeria’s only government – owned maritime academy, the Maritime Academy of Nigeria of Nigeria (MAN) in Oron, Akwa Ibom state has released its 2012 admission list.
 Details of the prospective candidates that were made available to our correspondent indicate that a total of 450 cadets are expected to arrive at the Oron institution on April 15, to commence registration by the following day, while lectures are expected to commence on April 17.
According to the statement, “upon their arrival, all new cadets are expected to report to the Regimental Unit Commander (RUC) for registration formalities, accommodation and other instructions.”
It also warned that any new cadet who “fails to report after the expiration of one  month from the date of resumption would be considered as having forfeited his/her admission.”
A breakdown of the admission list shows that maritime transport and business studies accounted for the highest number of cadets. Intakes into that department are 154, while intakes into nautical sciences are 78, marine engineering are 136, electrical and electronics engineering are 46 and boat/ship building technology accounted for 36 of the cadets.  
Out of the 78 students that were admitted for nautical sciences, 15 are from the host state of Akwa Ibom, while Niger, Abia, Ekiti, Taraba, Imo, FCT had one cadet each. Lagos and  Ondo states had only two.
Similarly, out of the 136 admitted for marine engineering, about 38 are from the host state of Akwa Ibom.  
Also, out of the 154 that were admitted for maritime transport and business studies, Akwa Ibom state alone accounted for about 23 intakes.
