“The country is blessed with huge potentials, huge natural resources, and above all very nice people. I have had pleasant experience from my interactions with Nigerians at the IMO, and I am excited to be here.”

He disclosed that it was his maiden visit to the country and thanked the Minister of Transportation, Mu’azu Jaji Sambo, his team from the ministry, the Director-General, Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Dr. Bashir Jamoh, and other industry stakeholders for the invite.

Kitack, who is from South Korea, expressed hope for more cooperation between both countries, stating that Koreans consider Nigeria a dream land.

Among the industry stakeholders partnering NIMASA in the Deep Blue Project operational engagement session scheduled as part of the activities of Kitack’s visit is the Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG) Ship Management Limited.

Kitack Lim is also expected to have a first-hand experience of some operational activities at NIMASA, which is Nigeria’ focal agency liaising with the IMO under the supervision of the Federal Ministry of Transportation.
