Blue Economy Campaign
At Ocean Ambassadors Africa, we do not only provide transportation and tourism services we also provide enlightenment programmes about maritime and the blue economy to the populace most especially students of secondary schools both private and public.
We have been doing it for like five years and the project was endorsed by University of Lagos (UNILAG), the department of Geography to the Post Graduate level.
