The Nigerian Navy warship, NNS UNITY, on Sunday, arrived at Dakar Sea Port to carry out the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) mandate of restoring democracy in Gambia. The Chief of Training/Operations, Defence Headquarters, Maj.-Gen. Ahmed Muhammed, received the ship on behalf of the Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Gabriel Olonisakin.

Earlier, the Force Commander, Operation Restore Democracy in Gambia, Air Commodore, Tajudeen Yusuf, told journalists that the next operation, after the arrival of the troops into Gambia, was to get the president Adama Barrow into the country. *Nigerian navy ship According to him, the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has successfully conducted an aerial surveillance over Gambia. “The ground troops have already moved into the Gambian territory, and no opposition was met. It was a peaceful movement and we were welcomed by members of the armed forces of the Gambia.

“The aim of this was to secure some key and vulnerable points, in the Gambian territory so as to create peaceful passage for the president to move in and for us to stabilize the country and eventually for its democracy to continue to thrive,’’ Yusuf said. He explained the war ship, which arrived on Sunday, would be incorporated immediately into the ongoing operations. He said troops would soften their operations for now, but would be on alert to tackle any challenge that would come up.

“The former president has ruled the country for 22 years, he still has his loyalists within the armed forces and the country in general, and we cannot afford to be careless with the new president. “We still have to do a lot of stabilization to ensure that there is peace and that he is in charge of the country before we can finally bow out,’’ he said.

There was no rush.

Sending the NNS unity was an overkill really as it was not needed.

Were you expecting the ship to fly to Gambia?

Perhaps you can come up a way to install rocket boosters to the ship to make it move faster.

Plus (I stand corrected) there is a difference between the ship being on the seas around the port of Banjul and it docking on the shore.

The first duty was a naval blockade. It had no need of being at the port for that which was why the troops were flown there

o

Edakun.. the same Jammeh that is lounging in Equitorial Guinea?
That ship is as slow as the GCFR of it's country!!

Really..... and you are in the best position to say if its needed or not

Idiots, medicine after death, by the way, how many of your county problems have you been able to solve?

Who go pay for the fuel wey we burn ?

That's very laughable

Waste of fuel time and resources

Come and secure Southern Kaduna first.

Make dem kuku turn back now. Abi wetin remain

The shop provides additional "eyes" for ECOMOG, creates a sea blockaded and has some interesting electronic capabilities. The Gambian conventional army might not be a threat but with a Jammeh, rogue forces are not beyond the bounds of probability.

Good practice anyways for integrated operations.

Do you expect a war ship to be at jetty to launch attacks? attacks are launched from high sea to shore, Unity only arrived shore when the going became smooth

What is this one saying?
Is the ship not going to leave after the directive from the ECOWAS? Will it teleport to Gambia?

After the war done finish
