The National Association of Government Approved Freight Forwarders (NAGAFF) has extended its warm congratulation to the entire management of the Standards Organization of Nigeria (SON) following the conferment of ISO/IC 17021 on the organization by the National Accreditation Board of India (NABCB).
The founder of NAGAFF, Dr. Boniface Aniebonam who made the congratulatory message available to our correspondent in Lagos weekend said that the international accreditation, from their findings, was for the organization’s Management Systems Certification, which he said was a confirmation of its competence, integrity and impartiality as a service provider.
He noted that the international recognition for SON under the leadership of its Director-General, Mr. Osita Aboloma did not come to them as a surprise, as the Organization had been upwardly mobile and stakeholders driven since he (Aboloma) assumed office.
“Like they say, “a golden fish has no hiding place”. The exploits of SON under your leadership have given confidence that services offered by SON would naturally meet clients’ requirements. We are happy to note that the accreditation has brought SON at par with its counterparts in Europe, America, Asia, and some African countries.
“We at NAGAFF are very pleased to be associated with the success story of SON and pledge our continued support to you and your management to achieve greater heights for the benefit of our people and the glory of our dear country. We know that SONCAP rule of engagement means safety to life of all Nigerians and the entire world. We therefore urge you and the management team to keep the flag flying.
He however was confident that this recognition would serve as a challenge for SON to aim higher and afford it an opportunity to leave indelible marks in the annals of Nigerian history saying, “This letter of appreciation of hardwork and fight against corruption in our ports is being forwarded to Mr. President for his information and acknowledgement”.
