On Monday December 223, Ghana marked a momentous step in securing its territorial and maritime integrity, when President Akufo-Addo commissioned the Forward Operating Base (FOB) at Ezinlibo, the largest naval base in our country, in terms of infrastructure.
This strategically positioned facility will enhance the Navy's readiness to address complex security challenges in the Gulf of Guinea, including piracy, illegal fishing, and transnational crimes.
It joins a growing network of Forward Operating Bases across the country, including those at Tilli, Bui, Sankore, and Kenyase, with plans underway for additional facilities in Keta, Ada, Winneba and Elmina.
At Sekondi Naval Base, history was made again with the commissioning of the Ghana Navy Ship (GNS) Achimota, the largest ship ever built in Ghana.
