internship programme at the National Oil Spill Detection and Response Agency (NOSDRA).

She shared the post with friends on LinkedIn, read below:

I’m grateful to have recently concluded my #internship programme at the National Oil Spill Detection and Response Agency (NOSDRA).

It was an awesome experience. I was attached to the Department of Oil Field Assessment (OFA) where I gained operational knowledge on #oilspill recovery, cleanup, remediation and damage assessment procedures and regulations. Discipline, time management, team work, professionalism and intercultural fluency, amongst others, are the #skills I gained on the role.

The strongest lesson I learnt during my internship period is that “The greatest gift you can give to yourself is to #invest in yourself”. Faced with some challenges, I was compelled to spend more time developing myself – studying, gaining technical knowledge relevant to my industry, networking and staying healthy.

Truly, you cannot dream yourself into the #future you deserve, you must hammer and forge your path. I’ve come to understand that I am my greatest #asset, hence I’ve pledged to commit myself to continual #learning and #development.

I’m deeply grateful to my supervisor Dr Sa’adatu A. Usman and all staff of the Department of Oil Field Assessment, NOSDRA especially Mariam Yahaya-Shiru and Mohammed Gumsuri. Thank you for always making time to share your wealth of knowledge and experience with me. Your words of wisdom and encouragement will always be cherished.

To my fellow interns – Victor Samuel, Halima, Sharon Kalu, Emmanuel, Taye and Femi, I’ll always treasure the time we spent together. Looking forward to seeing you all excel in your future #career.

Thank you #NOSDRA Nigeria!
