Human Capital Remains NPA’s Greatest Asset – Dantsoho 

The Managing Director of the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), Dr. Abubakar Dantsoho,  has stated that the authority’s greatest asset lies not only in infrastructure and technology but in its people, who drive the nation’s maritime growth.

Dantsoho, stated this during the maiden edition of the National Mentoring Day celebration held at the authority’s headquarters in Lagos.

Represented by the Executive Director of Finance and Administration, Vivian Richard-Edet, Dantsoho said the event marked a significant milestone in the Authority’s commitment to nurturing future leaders, promoting knowledge transfer, and entrenching a culture of continuous learning and professional growth.

“This occasion marks an important milestone in our commitment to nurturing future leaders, promoting knowledge transfer, and institutionalising a culture of continuous learning and professional development,” he said.

He added that while NPA continues to invest in world-class infrastructure and advanced port technology, its most valuable strength remains its workforce.

“As an organisation at the heart of Nigeria’s maritime economy, we recognise that our true strength lies not only in infrastructure and technology but, more importantly, in our people,” he emphasised.

He also applauded the contributions of young professionals serving under the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) at the NPA, describing them as the next generation of innovators and change agents who will shape the future of the maritime industry and Nigeria’s economy at large.
