Deep Blue Project Expansion

planned

Nigeria plans to expand the Integrated National Security and Waterways Protection Infrastructure, known as the Deep Blue Project, to further strengthen maritime security. The project integrates air, land, and sea assets with advanced surveillance systems, significantly improving maritime domain awareness and response capability, resulting in zero piracy incidents in Nigerian waters for over four years. The expansion aims to consolidate gains in maritime security, boost economic growth, and position Nigeria as a leader in maritime security in West and Central Africa.
