The award was bestowed on NIMASA at the top flight sub-regional maritime industry celebrity showcase tagged “West Africa Maritime Awards” (WAMA).
 
The award facilitators, Balm of Gilead Communications, cited the agency’s anti-pollution campaign efforts, modernization of its registry, highly effective marine emergency units that have enhanced Search and Rescue on Nigerian waters, the successful launch of a Seafarers Development Programme and the dogged fight against the activities of pirates and armed robbery on Nigerian territorial waters as some of the achievements which earned NIMASA the awards.      

Presenting the award to the NIMASA, director general of the Port of Lome, who was represented by his Finance Director, Mr Wenega Jeremie said that the Nigerian apex maritime regulatory agency has been outstanding in the execution of its mandate especially in the area of Search and Rescue.
