Mr. Essien also said that the NIMASA boss was committed to ensuring that adequate capacity for the industry was built to ensure economic prosperity through the maritime domain.

He said while some of the cadets are due for sea-time training, others will undergo the mandatory CoC and will be trained in the Philippines, UK and Romania.

According to the Agency, these 250 cadets represent just the first of three batches planned for future training.
