Established in 2016, the unit was formed to strengthen the Navy\u2019s capacity to respond to emerging and unconventional security threats.\u00a0The anniversary launch featured capability displays and tactical demonstrations that showcased the squadron\u2019s specialised training and operational readiness. The SBS undertakes missions including special reconnaissance, maritime interdiction, vessel boarding, search and seizure, counter-terrorism, riverine operations, personnel recovery and the protection of vital installations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Delivering the anniversary address, Commodore\u00a0Kyaano\u00a0highlighted the strategic importance of Ghana\u2019s maritime environment to national security, economic development and regional stability. He noted that threats such as piracy, armed robbery at sea, transnational organised crime and attacks on critical maritime infrastructure demand specialised skills, operational readiness and sound professional judgment. He commended past and present personnel for their discipline and commitment. He however urged\u00a0personnel\u00a0to use the anniversary to renew their dedication to excellence, innovation and service to the nation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ql-align-justify\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Commodore\u00a0Kyaano\u00a0also acknowledged the contributions of international defence partners, including the Nigerian Navy Special Boat Service, US Marine Forces Africa and the Danish Frogman Corps, to the squadron\u2019s training and capability development. He said sustained cooperation and professional exchanges had strengthened the unit\u2019s growth and preparedness to address evolving security challenges. He urged personnel to uphold military professionalism, teamwork and compliance with applicable laws and rules governing military operations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ql-align-justify\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Commanding Officer of the Special Boat Squadron, Lieutenant Commander Ishmael\u00a0Agomna, traced the unit\u2019s origins, recalling that four Ghanaian naval personnel, including himself, returned from Nigeria after studying the operations of the Nigerian Navy\u2019s special boat unit to help establish Ghana\u2019s maritime special operations capability.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ql-align-justify\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">He acknowledged the sacrifices, challenges and personal commitments involved in building the squadron over the past decade, and expressed appreciation to successive naval leadership, instructors, operators, support staff and international partners. He called for greater innovation, unity and collective responsibility as the squadron pursues its future operational objectives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ql-align-justify\" style=\"text-align:
