Commodore (Cdre) Emmanuel Ayesu Kwafo, the Flag Officer Commanding (FOC) Western Naval Command, has retired from active service after 38 years of distinguished military service.
A contingent of officers from the Western Naval Command held a change of command parade and a pulling-out ceremony at the Western Naval Headquarters in Sekondi to bid him farewell, in line with military tradition.
He handed over authority to Cdre Samuel Ayelazono, who, until his appointment, was the Flag Officer Fleet of the Ghana Navy.
In his farewell speech, Cdre Kwafo thanked God for His grace and protection throughout his illustrious military career, adding that he felt privileged to have served in the Ghana Armed Forces (GAF) for over three decades.
