NIGERIAN NAVY COLLABORATES WITH FRENCH NAVY IN EXERCISE NEMO

The Director of Information (DINFO), Commodore Christian Ezekobe, in a statement said, two French Warships HPD DIXMUNDE and FF CODUING are leading a French maritime initiative under the Exercise NEMO series tagged Exercise NEMO 16.5 with the theme 'Maritime Structure on Securitisation’.

The Exercise is geared towards sharpening skills in anti-piracy and anti-illegal fishing. The Exercise also seeks to strengthen a 2013 agreement between the Economic Community of Central African States and the Economic Community of West African States to fight piracy in the Gulf of Guinea.

Exercise NEMO is being conducted in collaboration with the Nigerian Navy as well as navies of Gabon, Cameroun, Benin, Togo and Ghana among other countries in Gulf of Guinea.

The objectives of the Exercise include cooperation in the fight against piracy and illegal fishing in the Gulf as well as testing interoperability between participating navies. The vessels will carry out several exercises including a simulated attack on an oil tanker which will be tracked by Nigeria's Maritime Domain Awareness Capability Systems. Exercise NEMOs activities will be conducted in our waters between 13 and 16 September 2016 and NNS OKPABANA has been designated to partake in the Exercise.
