Adeyanju posited that there's no denial of the fact that the maritime industry is the focal point around which the nation's economy revolves.Noting  the that products which fill our markets, the energy that propel our factories and resources that sustain our people flow through the maritime veins; yet, amidst this turbulent times, the maritime workforce has been left grappling with uncertainties battling dual challenges of the economic restructuring and the relentlessness at sea.
