President Tinubu Appoints New NIMASA Governing Board

ILAD Congratulates Iroghama Ogbeifun on a Well-Deserved National Appointment

Abuja, Nigeria – July 2, 2025

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has approved the appointment of a new Governing Board for the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), effective June 24, 2025. This decision, in accordance with Section 5 of the NIMASA Act, reflects the administration’s unwavering commitment to institutional excellence and strategic leadership in Nigeria’s maritime sector.

The Act mandates the Board to determine the general policy direction of the Agency in all financial, commercial, and operational matters — making the quality of its leadership crucial to the future of Nigeria’s maritime economy.

Among the notable appointees is Mrs. Iroghama Ogbeifun, Managing Director/CEO of Starzs Investments Company Limited and Chairman of the Technical Committee of the Shipowners Association of Nigeria (SOAN). Her appointment has drawn widespread praise across the maritime and leadership communities, recognizing her as a woman of integrity, foresight, and exceptional impact.

The Institute of Leadership Assessment and Development (ILAD) extends its heartfelt congratulations to Mrs. Iroghama Ogbeifun on this well-deserved national honour. Her appointment is not only a personal milestone but a proud moment for the maritime industry and all advocates of transformational leadership in Nigeria.

Mrs. Ogbeifun's journey has been defined by resilience, innovation, and visionary leadership. Under her guidance, Starzs Investments expanded its fleet from 3 ships in 2014 to 11 ships by 2021, and secured $15 million in Mezzanine Debt to scale operations — positioning the company as a key player in Nigeria’s marine logistics sector.

Her academic and professional accomplishments are equally distinguished. She holds degrees from the University of Massachusetts, Boston and Brunel University, London, alongside advanced executive training from the prestigious Harvard Business School. With certifications from Lloyd’s Maritime Academy and the Nigerian Chamber of Shipping, Mrs. Ogbeifun brings unmatched competence to national service

Burkina Faso president Captain Ibrahim Traoré didn’t waste time proving a point!

A doctor who publicly criticized him for “not doing enough” in the fight against t,errorism has found himself living that reality — literally.

Reports say the doctor was arrested, given military training, and sent straight to the battlefield to help fight terrorism “since he believes he knows better than the military.”

Captain Traoré reportedly said if the doctor has all the answers, then he should be allowed to contribute directly.

Niger Unveils Its First Homegrown Tactical Vehicle!

History made in Niamey as the Republic of Niger unveils the Tamgak Wangari — the nation's first fully indigenous tactical vehicle, built by Guedesign Automotive.

Designed by local engineers and crafted for the harsh Sahel terrain, this buggy-style beast thrives in extreme heat, sand, and rugged landscapes.

More than a combat vehicle, the Tamgak Wangari is a symbol of sovereignty, resilience, and innovation proudly made in Niger, for Niger.

From the Tamgak mountains to the battlefield, this vehicle represents a powerful step toward self-reliance and local industrial growth.

A Family Man's Thought

Beneath the moon, his thoughts take flight,
A father’s heart in the still of night.
Dreams of plenty, but pockets lean,
A heavy load, unseen, serene.

The children's laughter fuels his fire,
To build a life, to lift them higher.
He counts the days, the hours too,
Seeking paths both old and new.

The fields may call, the market hum,
The wheels of toil forever drum.
Yet in his eyes, a steady gleam,
A father’s love, a boundless dream.

For though the journey bends and turns,
His spirit glows, his purpose burns.
He’ll weave the thread, he’ll sow the seed,
To make ends meet, to meet their need.

Institute Lauds CDS Musa’s Transformational Leadership

Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa

The Institute of Leadership Assessment And Development Nigeria (ILAD) has commended the Chief of Defence Staff General Christopher Musa’s transformational Armed Forces leadership and called on stakeholders and citizens to support the military.

The Director General of the Institute, Dr. Baba R. Adamu, said in a statement that General Musa’s exceptional leadership, steadfast dedication, and visionary approach have redefined the role of the Armed Forces in safeguarding Nigeria’s territorial integrity and fostering peace.

He added that General Musa’s tenure as Chief of Defence Staff has marked significant strides in fortifying Nigeria’s defence and enhancing national security.

“General Christopher G. Musa’s exceptional leadership, steadfast dedication, and visionary approach have redefined the role of the Armed Forces in safeguarding Nigeria’s territorial integrity and fostering peace. His achievements, including successfully hosting the All Africa Military Games, underscore his commitment to advancing national and regional security.”

Adamu said General Musa has demonstrated exceptional leadership in reinforcing the nation’s defence posture since his appointment.

“Under his command, the Armed Forces of Nigeria have intensified joint military operations to counter-insurgency, terrorism, and other security threats. His strategic vision has led to a marked decrease in the activities of terrorist groups in the North-East, North-West, and South-East, restoring peace and security to previously affected communities,” he said

According to the statement, General Musa’s tenure has been defined by implementing cutting-edge military operations that safeguard national sovereignty.

“His dedication to fostering synergy among the Army, Navy, and Air Force has resulted in more effective and coordinated responses. Noteworthy initiatives such as Operation Safe Haven and the revitalisation of Operation Hadin Kai have been pivotal in weakening enemy capabilities and protecting civilian lives and property,” he said.

On behalf of the Institute of Leadership Assessment and Development (ILAD), I extend our heartfelt congratulations to the Nigerian Defence Academy on the remarkable achievement of your cadets, 2Lt TT Eze and 2Lt I Suleiman, in successfully completing the prestigious Commando Training Centre Royal Marines program in Lympstone, United Kingdom.

This outstanding accomplishment not only highlights the resilience, skill, and dedication of the officers but also reflects the visionary leadership of the NDA under your command. Their success as the first officers from the Nigerian Army to complete such rigorous training is a testament to the Academy's commitment to excellence and global standards in military education.

Your leadership philosophy aligns perfectly with ILAD's vision of transformational leadership, which emphasizes inspiring individuals and institutions to achieve exceptional outcomes through innovation and determination. The dedication and achievements under your stewardship set a standard that motivates others to pursue excellence in their respective fields.

We are confident that this milestone will further enhance the reputation of the Nigerian Defence Academy and inspire a new generation of leaders within the Nigerian Armed Forces.

Once again, congratulations to you and the entire NDA community for this historic achievement.

Dr Baba R.Adamu
