Mahama and Gabon leader discuss climate action, mining and maritime security cooperation

“As maritime nations endowed with abundant natural resources, Ghana and Gabon can deepen cooperation in sustainable fisheries management, aquaculture development, fish processing, climate-smart agriculture, agricultural research and food security initiatives,” he said.

Ghana and Gabon are set to explore greater cooperation in climate action, natural resource management and maritime security, as President John Dramani Mahama and Gabonese President Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema discussed ways to address shared environmental and security concerns.“As maritime nations bordering the Gulf of Guinea, Ghana and Gabon have a shared interest in promoting maritime security, combating piracy and illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, protecting the marine ecosystem and advancing the blue economy as a driver of inclusive and sustainable growth,” he said.
