Hajia Lami Tumaka: Celebrating A Maritime Icon At 62

On January 14th, 2022, Hajia Lami Tumaka added another year of outstanding accomplishments, as she clocks 62.

Hajia Lami, an intelligent woman with a track record of achievements in all her career growth which is established by her dedication and diligence, was a former Director of Special Duties (External Relations & Technical Cooperation), Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA).

The excellent strategic communications professional retired meritoriously from the maritime sector after 22 years of service. She served as Chief Research Officer at Nigeria Maritime Authority (NMA), which transitioned into NIMASA, and worked in different departments, including Maritime Guards Command and Public Relations departments and rose through the ranks to become a director.

She was honoured as the Maritime Media Woman of the Year in 2011 and 2012. Hajia Lami is also a recipient of a poll-driven Best Maritime Industry Public Relations Officer Award, among others.

The multiple award-winner contributed significantly to the re-branding of NIMASA in particular and the entire maritime sector in general. She is adorable and the mention of her name brings the vision of a high-potential character to the fore.

Gatekeepers News joins other well-meaning Nigerians to celebrate Hajia Lami on her 62nd birthday anniversary and pray that her days are long and blessed with sounder health and prosperity.
