“The Falcon Eye System is a state-of-the-art surveillance system that incorporates various sensors located along the nation’s enormous coastline,such as radars, long-range electro-optic systems,automatic identification system receivers, weather stations…” yemiosinbajo.ng/commissioning-…
#FalconEye and #DeepBlue. State-of-the-Art Maritime surveillance systems that were both commissioned in June and July 2021, by President @MBuhari and VP @ProfOsinbajo (representing the President).
The #NigerianNavy’s #FalconEye Maritime Surveillance and Intelligence system. Commissioned by VP @ProfOsinbajo on behalf of President @MBuhari in July 2021. 
An important caveat. This is not to say everything is now perfect. No. Vigilance is key, the progress made has to be sustained and improved upon. Only then can we begin to see the expected impact, like a reduction in the insurance premiums on vessels sailing in Nigerian waters.
