The Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) has raised the alarm over an alleged blackmail and smear campaign against the management of the authority by some faceless group.
In a statement made available today by the general manager, Corporate and Strategic Communication, NPA, Josephine Moltok, he said the faceless fake news peddlers are also involved in forgery of the authority’s letterhead.
According to Moltok, the NPA management under the managing director, Mohammed Koko Bello, has transparency, accountability and integrity as its watchword.
He however, warned that the authority has informed security agencies over the lies and falsehood spread about the management of the authority.
He enjoined media organisations like the Nigeria Union of Journalists and Nigeria Guild of Editors to advise its members not to fall prey to these unscrupulous individuals and revert their minds to the ethical and professional demands of accuracy, balance, fairness and social responsibility.
He explained that the management of the NPA remains committed to improved trade facilitation, revenue generation and unprecedented remittances to the Consolidated Revenue Fund and is in tune with President Bola Tinubu’s FDI drive of which the ports are a key component.
