Tinubu invites Africa to tap into Nigeria’s Blue Economy

has invited the global community, especially African countries, to take advantage of the investment opportunities that abound in Nigeria’s blue economy.

President Tinubu, who was represented at the conference by his deputy, Vice President Kashim Shettima, observed that while a flourishing blue economy is the bedrock of every vibrant nation, the only way to attain such an economy is through “a progressive naval force.” “Let us work towards a maritime future that is secure, prosperous, sustainable, and beneficial to all our people and the generations to come. I urge you all to feel at home and take advantage of the investment opportunities that abound in Nigeria’s blue economy.”

He congratulated the Nigerian Navy on its 68th Anniversary, saying the nation remains immensely grateful for the service it has rendered in the past 68 years, “serving as a critical pillar of our security,” even as he applauded the marine forces for creating “a sense of balance and stability” in the country.

On his part, the Minister of State for Defence, Matawalle, urged participants at the conference and partners of the Nigerian Navy to come up with innovative ways by which the navies in the sub-region can discharge their duties, and for Nigeria, in actualising the vision of President Tinubu for the safety and security of the nation’s maritime environment.

VP Shettima, who represented the President afterwards proceeded to declare open the Regional Maritime Exercise and also inspected the ongoing Seaward Defence Boats project. This was just as he took time to visit the exhibition stand mounted by the Nigerian Navy at the event.
