NIMASA to immortalise late Folarin, names vessel after him

The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) has plans to immortalise the late maritime icon, Otunba Kunle Folarin by naming one of its newly-acquired vessels after him.

The Director-General NIMASA, Dr Bashir Jamoh, made this known in Lagos on Thursday during a one-day colloquium held in honour of the late maritime economist.

Jamoh who described Folarin as a selfless service man, who was not given to acquiring wealth, explained that NIMASA just acquired three vessels and would be naming one of the vessels after him.
