Our Counsel, Maryam Dan-Habu, participated in the Lagos International Maritime Week (LIMWEEK) 2026, convened under the theme, “From Policy to Practice – Powering Maritime Excellence.”
The conference brought together stakeholders across government, industry, security, law, academia and the wider blue economy to explore practical pathways for translating maritime policy into measurable and sustainable outcomes.
Discussions across sessions on Maritime Security in the Gulf of Guinea, Maritime Transportation and Port Development, Waterway Safety, Maritime Law & Arbitration, and Maritime Training and Education.
A key takeaway from the conference was clear: maritime excellence requires more than sound policy, it requires effective implementation, accountable institutions and sustained collaboration.
Nigeria’s ambition to become a leading maritime and blue economy hub will depend on our collective ability to turn policy commitments into practical actions that improve safety, attract investment, create opportunities, strengthen indigenous capacity and protect our marine environment.
