In other words invest in maritime patrol and ensure due registration of all finishing vessels, also establish a border / boundary so as to prevent confusion and fine offenders a shitload of money But some idiots think it's blame game while some don't think at all 15 Likes 1 Share |

Nigeria does need to secure it maritime waters. There's too much nonsense going on in the Gulf of Guinea. Most people are unaware illegal Chinese fishers cost $1.3 billion yearly in West Africa alone. The federal government has alleged that low revenue, low output and dwindling demand for fish in Nigeria are because of the poor policing of the country’s territorial waters. Not sure how having less fish lower aggregate demand. The supply argument, security and revenue argument do make sense though. Since less legal business means no taxes. 3 Likes 1 Share |

modelmike7: The navy is trying to take steps in that regard. Just a few weeks ago they requested 1.3 billion for procurement of vessels and hardware. general purpose frigate valued at $350 million, a long-endurance Offshore Patrol Vessel (OPV) valued at $120 million, a medium-endurance OPV estimated at $60 million, a landing platform dock ship worth $350 million and a landing ship-tank valued $90 million. Other required assets include a submarine worth $300 million, a Seaward Defence Boat (SDB) worth $10 million and a specialised naval security helicopter at an estimated cost of $25 million. 1 Like |

Paperwhite: Same reason they do it all over many parts of Africa. A lot of African nations don't have secure waters. Then they hardly communicate and coordinate on secruring maritime waters. Yes corruption always has part but it's bigger than that in this case. Gulf of Guinea has pirates doing kidnapping and stealing to foreigners illegally fishing. South Africa alone loses billions of dollars every year to illegal fishing, especially to the poaching of abalone and lobster, prized by poachers for their high demand in places such as Hong Kong, China, and other parts of East Asia. A 2013 study revealed that out of the 130 ships operating off its coast 129 were foreign, and concerns increasing that within 10 years, the Mozambique Channel may be all but bereft of maritime life. With the country losing 65 million dollars a year to illegal fishing, 2 Likes |

How can a country with large population can't control its territorial waters? Nobody is even talking about Environmental Resources Management? Why? Over dependence on oil. The same government complaining gave out licences for them to fish in our waters. They fish in our waters and export same to us at a high cost Our Govt. said the country doesn't have the resources to acquire fishing vessels. The so called "whites" empty the toxic wastes accumulated in their country into our waters. Our living aquatic resources becomes poisoned with toxic heavy metals which is passed to humans that consumes them. Why won't people develop incurable ailments. The whites wave foreign currencies to bride the so called people protecting our waters. They then breach our Economic Exclusive Zone without resistance. We have all the resources including human resources to make things right. We just need good policymakers and policy. Over dependence on oil sha We need to breach the gap between Govt and University Dons to make things work. People in such field should be involved in policy making.
