CIOTAN to engage professionals as Registrar, management staff to transform transport industry.

The President of the Chartered Institute Transport Administration in Nigeria (CIOTAN), Dr. Bashir Jamoh has disclosed plans to engage professionals as Registrar and management staff to run the institute.

Dr. Jamoh who said this on Sunday in Lagos, promised that the Institute is set to promote the transport industry.

He added that to achieve the set goal, a competent personality with vast knowledge of the industry must be engaged to help drive the vision.

He maintained the such an individual must have it in mind to key into the vision of CIOTA in achieving set objectives.

Jamoh who also doubles as the Executive Director, Finance and Administration of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), stated that since the bill was approved by President Muhammadu Buhari; leaders of the institute are working round the clock to ensure a sustainable transport system from all ramifications.

He noted that CIoTA currently has only one staff and would later engage more hands soon but the position of a registrar is of essence at the moment.

However, the President also stated that engagement of more hands for the institute is not a personal responsible but collective efforts from council executives of CIoTA, which must embrace due process.

“We are looking for experienced hand from the transport industry ,, somebody that will share our dreams and goals for the sector.

“We are not only looking for a registrar anyway; we need management staff at the right time and my mode of leadership is all about corporate governance.

“I cannot take decision alone even if we are able to get competent hand, I have to convey it to the council for us to evaluate and agree on who is fit for  what position for employment.
