The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has applauded President Bola Tinubu for assenting to the Nigeria Maritime University Bill.

President of NBA, Mazi Afam Osigwe, SAN, in a statement on Sunday noted that the university will create opportunities for Nigerians to have specialised skills in the maritime area.

“I congratulate the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on his historic assent to the Nigeria Maritime University Bill, several years after the idea of the university was muted as one of the possible solutions to the agitation in the Niger Delta.

“The Nigeria Maritime University will not only create jobs for the people and residents of Niger Delta but will also create opportunities for Nigerians to have specialised skills in the maritime area. The President’s assent is a welcome development towards strengthening the relative peace in the Niger Delta.

“I urge the people of Niger Delta to protect the institution and ensure that it becomes a conducive learning environment for would be maritime experts.”
