I contacted one of the staff of NPA (General Manager) and asked him how about the recruitment stuff and he said that he also contacted one of the committee members yesterday and he told him that very soon the successful candidates will be contacted. So lets keep on praying for the best in life. Thanks

Did they added 100 people or they increased the number of applicants to be employed?

Please is it still on can I apply

I can't say precisely, but you know how it is in Nigeria, if you get your ways you can still have it without applying.

It is the same things bro. Addition or increase. the additional people is not from the NPA Management, it's from d oga @ d top ooooo.

Love to read through your article bro. Allah Almighty is our strength and nothing is impossible. We shall have the last laugh.

By Godfrey Bivbere

THE Senate is set to scrap the Nigerian Ports Authority, NPA, through the modified Ports and Harbours bill which seeks to create a new body to be known as Nigerian Ports and Harbours Authority.

The new bill which replaces the old one that has been at the National Assembly for over 10 years, is meant to strengthen the concession of Nigerian ports to ensure transparency, effective management and improved safety.


SENATE CHAMBER
The Bill which is sponsored by Sen. Andy Uba seeks to repeal the Nigerian Ports Authority Act, 2004 and enact the Nigerian Ports and Harbours Authority to provide for the ownership, management and development of ports and harbours.

A maritime journal, Ships and Ports reported that the bill recommends in part that for the provision of an “appropriate institutional framework for the ownership, management and development of ports and harbours.”

It states further that if privatised, it will “ensure the integrity, efficiency and safety of the ports based on principles of accountability, competition, fairness and transparency, and to encourage private sector participation in the provision of port services and port infrastructure and promote and safeguard Nigeria’s competitiveness and trade objectives.”

The Bill seeks to establish an authority which shall be vested with control and ownership of all ports and harbours on behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria, transfer of the technical regulatory powers relating to ports to the Authority, and transfer of the ownership of the land and assets relating to ports currently vested in the Nigerian Ports Authority to the Authority”.

In reforming the sector, the senators may also separate the cargo handling section of the authority from landlord functions within ports and foster greater operating efficiency, accountability and transparency in the management and operation of ports.

The reform of the sector would also provide for “safe navigation, development and efficient management of harbours, channels and waterways and all other conservancy functions”.

The Bill recommends the facilitation of “transfer of technology, information systems and managerial expertise through private sector participation in port operations, creation of means of planning, coordinating, developing and integrating port policies with other maritime activities, surface and air transportation systems.”

The piece of legislation also proposes to introduce “maintenance of appropriate institutional arrangements to support good governance and accountability in ports.”

The new agency, the Senate proposes, should also establish a “reserve fund”, in the mode of the Excess Crude Account as it obtains in the case of proceeds from oil.

The Nigerian Ports and Harbours Bill was originally presented to the National Assembly by former President Olusegun Obasanjo in 2006 but failed to pass through both chambers. Unlike the new bill, the Obasanjo bill seeks for the splitting of the NPA to two autonomous authorities, the Western Ports and Harbours Authority and the Eastern Ports and Harbours Authority.

I pray it doesn't affect our recruitment. I also read the news.

Hi my fellow NPA hopefuls, let us keep praying for the best. I heard successful candidate will be called soon. Allah will help us all and give us cause to smile at the end of it all. 1 luv

The Managing Director of Nigerian Ports Authority, Mallam Habib Abdullahi has assured Port users and other stakeholders in the maritime industry that the Authority is fully prepared to combat any emergencies and disasters that may occur at any of the nation’s seaports.
 
Mallam Habib Abdullahi gave the assurance yesterday in Lagos while receiving members of the House of Representative Committee on Emergencies and Disaster Preparedness, who paid him a courtesy visit.
Represented by the Executive Director Marine and Operations, Engr. David Omonibeke, the Managing Director disclosed that the Authority’s Fire Service Department has become a reference point in Lagos State for its swift response to distress calls from public and private agencies  in the state.  This feat, he added, has attracted several commendations to the Authority.
 
Earlier, the Chairman of the Committee Honourable Ifedayo Abegunde, had told the Managing Director that his Committee is saddled with the constitutional responsibility of formulating pre-emptive policies on search and rescue operations in maritime and air transport industries.
 
Honourable Abegunde further said the Committee is in NPA to carry out on the spot assessment of the fire and lifesaving facilities within Nigerian Ports with a view to ascertaining if they are in line with International Maritime Organisation (IMO) and International Standard Organisation (ISO) standards. 
 
The Committee, in company of General Manager, Health Safety and Environment, Engr. T.O. Talabi and Chief Fire Officer, Mr Wale Olayiwola was later conducted round the ports in Lagos to see emergency and disaster facilities.
The Committee also visited similar facilities at Nigeria Independent Petroleum Company (NIPCO) and MRS tanks farms.  During the tour the Committee was shown the sizes, numbers, operations of the facilities and their effectiveness were also demonstrated by Fire Officers.
 
Other members of the Committee include the Deputy Chairman, Honourable Ismail Hussein, Honourable Monsuru Owolabi, Hon. Taiwo Oyewole, Hon. Rufai Chachangi and Hon. Dan Akpan.
