The Liberia Maritime Authority (LiMA) informs the general public that significant reforms are currently being undertaken by the Senior Management Team, under the leadership of /CEO, Cllr. Neto Zarzar Lighe Sr. These measures are designed to enhance the efficiency, integrity, and professionalism of the Authority while ensuring that Liberia’s maritime sector meets the highest international standards.
A central pillar of these reforms is the implementation of merit-based recruitment policies, a move designed to ensure that only individuals with the requisite knowledge, expertise, and technical competence are considered for employment. The maritime industry is a specialized field that requires a high level of proficiency, and LiMA is committed to upholding these standards to safeguard Liberia’s position as a global maritime leader.
At a time when governance and institutional integrity are under scrutiny across various sectors, LiMA is urging the public to remain vigilant against misinformation and misleading narratives. The Authority cautions that resistance to these necessary changes often stems from individuals or groups whose personal interests are impacted by LiMA’s commitment to transparency, accountability, and excellence.
/CEO Lighe, Sr. has reiterated his commitment to fostering a financially self-sustaining domestic maritime program—one that is globally compliant, effectively managed, and dedicated to protecting Liberia’s maritime domain.
As Liberia continues to consolidate its reputation as one of the world’s leading maritime nations, the Liberia Maritime Authority remains steadfast in driving sustainable growth, promoting industry best practices, and ensuring regulatory compliance.
