LAGOS JUNE 2ND (NEWSRANGERS)-Congress of Nigerian Maritime Media Practitioners (CONMMEP) has promised to partner National Compliance Joint Taskforce of Licensed Clearing Agents- NCJTFLCA in combating corruption in Nigeria maritime industry.
The Group made the vow during its Round Table meeting with President of NCJTFLCA, High Chief (Dr. )Basil Chudi Nwolisa in Lagos.

“We must not allow our nation, rich in resources and talents, to be defined by corruption,” he concluded.
He urged stakeholders to unite in eradicating corruption and promote a thriving and ethical maritime industry in Nigeria.
Comrade. Udo Onyeka, President of CONMMEP aligned with the advocacy group, vowing to collaborate with patriotic stakeholders to foster transparency and integrity in the industry.
