240509-N-MY408-1008 (May 9, 2024) TAKORADI, Ghana – Nigerian Navy Lt. Sandra Hitarh poses for a photo on a quay wall before conducting boarding and maritime interdiction drills as part of Obangame Express 2024 exercises at Ghana Western Naval Headquarters. Hitarh is a communications officer in the Nigerian Navy and will use the training at Obangame Express 2024 to lead her sailors in maritime interdiction efforts, which are important to all of the Gulf of Guinea countries.
“As a navy, we are at sea to protect territorial integrity, so it’s important that we learn the basics here,” said Hitarh.
During Exercise Obangame Express 2024, the 13th rendition of the exercise, partner and allied forces collaborate to enhance collective maritime law enforcement capabilities, bolster national and regional security in West Africa, and foster greater interoperability among U.S., African, and multinational partners. The U.S. routinely exercises with like-minded nations in Africa to build enduring relationships and combined capacity to ensure and safety and security of the regional maritime environment.
