As part of their statutory oversight responsibilities, the House of Representatives Committee on Navy, under the dynamic leadership of Rt. Hon. Yusuf Adamu Gagdi, has once again reaffirmed its commitment to enhancing national security and maritime excellence. In a high-level interactive session with the Chief of Naval Staff, the committee demonstrated its resolve to not only oversee but also add significant value to the Nigerian Navy’s operations.
This interaction was driven by the committee’s mandate to ensure that national interests remain paramount, and institutions like the Navy are equipped to deliver optimally in securing Nigeria’s territorial waters and promoting national development. Speaking on behalf of the committee, Rt. Hon. Yusuf Gagdi emphasized that the engagement was not an exercise in self-interest but a deliberate effort to scrutinize the Navy’s activities for the benefit of the entire nation.
“We are here to provide constructive oversight that will promote national development rather than self-development. Our focus is on ensuring that the Nigerian Navy continues to operate at the highest standards, enhancing its capabilities to protect our nation and contribute to economic growth,” Gagdi remarked.
Through this proactive approach, Rt. Hon. Gagdi has consistently showcased his dedication to national progress, positioning the Committee on Navy as a key player in driving improvements in Nigeria’s maritime sector. Under his leadership, the committee’s engagements are structured to foster transparency, accountability, and efficiency within the Navy, aligning with the broader goals of strengthening national security.
This latest interaction further underscores Gagdi’s reputation as a forward-thinking leader, determined to ensure that the Navy, as a crucial pillar of national defense, is well-supported in its mission. His focus on national interest and developmental oversight continues to win him admiration from stakeholders across the country.
With Rt. Hon. Yusuf Adamu Gagdi at the helm, Nigerians can be assured that the House Committee on Navy will continue to hold productive engagements that align the Navy’s activities with the broader objectives of national security, economic prosperity, and sustainable development.
