The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) has received commendation from the Bureau of Public Service Reforms (BPSR) for its proactive approach to institutional reforms.
At a two-day sensitization workshop in Lagos, the BPSR Director General, Dr. Dasuki Ibrahim Arabi, praised NIMASA for its commitment to enhancing operational efficiency, transparency, and service delivery through the automation of its systems.
Dr. Arabi highlighted NIM’s reform agenda, particularly its adoption of digital technologies, as a commendable benchmark for other government institutions.
He noted that the Agency’s reform efforts align with the Federal Government’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which aims to promote transparency and accountability in public service delivery.
The workshop covered key national reform initiatives, including the Treasury Single Account (TSA), the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS), and the Government Integrated Financial Management Information System (GIFMIS).
Dr. Arabi emphasized the importance of Reform Coordination Units within MDAs in driving institutional change and improving performance.
The Director General of NIMASA, Dr. Dayo Mobereola, reaffirmed the Agency’s commitment to reform, stating, “Reform is the pathway to innovation and national advancement. Without change, we risk stagnation.”
He urged NIMASA staff to embrace a proactive and open mindset towards change, emphasizing that adaptability is essential to building institutional resilience and achieving long-term success.
The workshop provided a valuable platform for NIMASA personnel to deepen their awareness of public service reform objectives and to reaffirm the Agency’s alignment with national priorities focused on improving governance and driving economic development.
