Nigerian Navy launches exercise crocodile lift

The Nigerian Navy has launched the third edition of the French-facilitated maritime exercise codenamed, ‘Crocodile Lift.’

The Chief of Naval Staff, CNS, Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ogalla, represented by the Flag Officer Commanding, FOC, Naval Doctrine Command, Rear Admiral Shehu Gombe, said the exercise is aimed at developing skills for amphibious operations.

The flag off of the event took place on Saturday onboard Nigerian Navy Ship, NNS, KADA at Western Naval Command, Lagos.

According to the naval chief, the exercise was similar to the just-concluded ‘EX GRAND AFRICAN NEMO’, adding that it also presented an opportunity for partners with a shared understanding of security objectives to deploy African-led solutions to transborder threats and challenges.

Ogalla also reaffirmed the Nigerian Navy’s commitment and readiness to enhance regional collaboration toward ensuring the safety and security of the common maritime space for prosperous economic activities.

He added that the efforts of the Nigerian Navy, regional allies and international partners toward ensuring the overall regional maritime security was evident during the recently concluded ‘Ex GRAND AFRICAN NEMO 2024’.
