Flag Officer Commanding (FOC) Western Naval Command, Rear Adm. Yakubu Wambai said that the expectations of the Stabilisation Support Mission in Guinea Bissau would yield many positives.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that military wares such as trucks, cars, and tankers were among the equipment shipped on NNS KADA.

“The role the Nigerian Navy is playing today by NNS KADA conveying military hardware is one of the roles assigned to the Nigerian Navy Constitutionally. “The Chief of Defence Staff, Chief of Naval Staff, Chief of Army Staff, and Chief of Air Staff brought it together to show the manifestation under the leadership of the Minister of Defence.

Wambai recalled that in 1990, the Nigerian Navy conducted a similar exercise using NNS AMBE and NNS DAMISA to convey equipment and personnel to help to stabilise Liberia. ECOMOG included forces from five countries of ECOWAS: Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Nigeria, and Sierra Leone, later joined by Mali. He said that the ECOWAS standby force was still in existence and that the Nigerian Navy would use that umbrella to continue to work and function to support peace and stability within the West African sub-region.
