Yahaya said that the citadel of learning is where the Nigerian Navy trains and retrains officers and ratings on provost and regulating duties. 

He noted that various methodologies were used to train the students including newly introduced subjects such as Cyber Security, Health, Safety and Environment among others, adding that the inclusion of the subjects had broadened the knowledge of the graduands and prepared them to face contemporary and emerging security threats in the maritime environment. 

Yahaya also intimated that the school since its relocation from Lagos in 2010, has been operating from this temporary site and that the space had become too small and inadequate for the school.
