The classification of these boats as Boundary Class Ships of the Ghana Navy is fitting, and their names apt.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The President was happy to note that Ghana Navy Ships HALF ASSINI and AFLAO are products of the co-operation between the governments of Ghana and the United States.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe are grateful for the benevolence of the government and people of the United States. The United States has supported Ghana\u2019s military revitalization programme through capacity building and enhancement of our capabilities, with the support of the Navy\u2019s Special Boat Squadron and other initiatives with the Army and Air Force,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">President Akufo-Addo continued, \u201cThe current 5-year United States, Denmark and Ghana Trilateral Agreement is set to make the Navy\u2019s Special Boat Squadron a tier-one Special Operations Force by 2026. The donation of these two 12-metre Defender Class Boats would greatly enhance the operations of the Navy in dealing with sophisticated operations when the need arises. It is refreshing to see the Navy serving as a glue that is cementing international and local partnerships towards securing our interests at sea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He was particularly glad that the Navy and the Ghana Maritime Authority are working together to operate the new flex-fighter, which has been procured for oil spill response.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAs you can see, different players with different expertise, need to come together to work at sea, unlike in other domains. The Petroleum Commission and Ghana National Petroleum Company, both under the Ministry of Energy, are regulator and national operator, respectively, in our upstream oil and gas industry, yet it is the Ghana Maritime Authority operating under the Ministry of Transport that has procured a vessel for oil spill response to be operated with the Navy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Having launched the National Integrated Maritime Strategy last week, President Akufo-Addo applauded the team from the Ghana Navy who have built Ghana\u2019s first indigenous landing craft.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe NAVDOCK 1, which measures 11.5 metres in length, is designed to carry thirty (30) personnel and one (1) ton of cargo. Their effort embodies the ingenuity, determination and can-do spirit of the Ghanaian people. I have been reliably informed that the Ministry of Fisheries and the Naval Shipyard are partnering with some private actors to replace the wooden canoes, used for fishing, with improved aluminium boats,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He was hopeful that, in time, such collaboration will help develop the country\u2019s shipbuilding industry, and offer jobs to the youth of this country, while mitigating the environmental impact of wooden canoes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cI charge you to collaborate with our academic institutions and the private sector so that this innovation is developed further to include other platforms for the safe transportation of passengers and goods on the Volta Lake and along our coasts,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">President Akufo-Addo, in conclusion, reminded Ghanaians of the arduous task ahead and the need to work together to guard the country\u2019s maritime frontiers, and protect its interests.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThese vessels symbolise our resolve to safeguard our maritime sovereignty, and I have, thus, no doubt that the crew would live up to the high standards and professionalism that the Ghana Navy embodies. I acknowledge the sacrifices of the families of our servicemen and women who make certain that these gallant sailors have the peace of mind to be at sea to ply their trade,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>The Presidency, Republic of Ghana<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The President of the Republic, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo,
