In a strategic move to bolster surveillance and enhance revenue generation, the Surveillance Unit of the Shipping Development Department at the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency, NIMASA, has been granted single-user access to the Windward tool of the C4i intelligence system.
This development extends the application of the C4i facility previously focused on safety and security into shipping development and revenue optimization. By leveraging advanced technology, NIMASA aims to strengthen intelligence gathering, improve maritime surveillance, and block revenue leakages, ensuring a more efficient and transparent system.
The Management of NIMASA, under the leadership of Dr. Dayo Mobereola, has reiterated its commitment to improving internal processes to achieve optimal performance across all operational areas.
The C4i Centre, which stands for Command, Control, Communication, Computer, and Intelligence, is a critical component of the Deep Blue Project. It plays a key role in intelligence gathering and data collection, contributing significantly to securing Nigeria’s maritime domain. As a result of these efforts, the country has maintained zero piracy incidents for over 24 months.
This latest integration of C4i intelligence tools into NIMASA’s surveillance operations is expected to further enhance maritime security, regulatory compliance, and economic efficiency within the sector.
