Nigerian Maritime Agency, NIMASA Scholars In The Philippines Lament Government Neglect, Homeless, Living In Uncompleted Building
The Batch 2 cadets of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) on the Nigerian Seafarers Development Programme (NSDP) in the Philippines for their Certificate of Competency (CoC) have lamented that they are currently homeless and starving. Some of the cadets who interacted with SaharaReporters lamented that their ordeal is due to neglect and nonpayment of their allowances by the NIMASA authority, making it impossible for them to renew their house rents, procure their visas and other expenses. The cadets said they are about 117 in number.
