The Ghana Navy and their one shot & reload guns against the Pirates with automatic machine guns ? Only a Miracle will us. Please don't ask for it. Better do your research and get over the top in equipment, before blowing your horn. Get a DRONE to put hell fire in their asses.

For security reasons, one would have thought that the number of fast boats should not have been mentioned. To rub salt into open wounds you tell the whole world where these fast boats are coming from. This information could prove fatal for the Navy. Don't you think so?

Despite much boasting and vain assurances, the Ghana Navy is as weak as carbonic acid. It has no punch and cannot challenge the pirates.

The Ghana Armed Forces, as a whole, is not only weak, but poorly paid. Indeed, a small boy working in McDonald's Restaurant in Europe or America earns more pay than a General or equivalent of the Ghana Armed Forces. Even Togo can walk over Ghana comfortably!

Lets be serious because this is a serious matter. Whatever the Rear Admiral does in his house with or without his wife is not my business. Neither is it the business of anybody who does not live in that house.

Let us deal with the more serious issues concerning the security of the state. On that score, I have very strong doubts that the Ghana Navy is capable of effectively policing the seas bordering Ghana. They are definitely not sufficiently-equipped to do this job. Besides, I do not think that the entire Ghana Armed Forces is disciplined enough.

The Ghana Armed Forces has suffered greatly from meddling in the political appointment of Commanders and heads whose primary obligation has been loyalty to those who appointed them and not the stability or the integrity of the state. As a result, discipline and professionalism has gone to the dogs.

If the Rear Admiral truly believes that our 2 by 4 Navy can effectively patrol our vast coastal waters with their 5 or 6 toy boats, then he is obviously saying so to favour those who appointed him but not necessarilly in the interest of the nation. If he had the interest of the state at heart he would have come out strongly, demanding that the state does more to make the Navy a true Navy that will be a proud institution for all Ghanaians.

What we should all be concerned about is how to build up the Navy to effectively serve our national needs and purposes. This should include minimizing corruption and managing the economy better so that we can better equip opur Armed Forces.

All the ADMIRAL is doing is reassuring the nation at large yet You're right about the indecipline amongst the ranks- THIS NEEDS TO BE CHECKED with strong leadership. A weak CNS presided over an atrocious slaughter of NAVAL Officers 31 years ago(04-02-1982). NOBODY HAS BEEN PROSECUTED for this and some of these criminals who perpetrated this heinous crime are still WALKING FREE. Lest they are forgotten, sleep well COMMANDERS BARNOR, ADJAVON and Chief HUGHE, killed on that fateful day by a bunch of WEE SMOKING COWARDLY BASTARDS IN NAVAL UNIFORM. GHANA NAVY's HISTORICAL SHAME under RAWLINS RULE.

WASSA is an Hausa word for Get-together. During the days of Royal West African Frontier Forces( RWAFF). The force NCOs were most Hausas from the Glover Hausas,. Instructing and music ( Abongo Songs) were all in the Hausa language . Therefore the British Oficers in identifying themselves with themen will always want to communicate in Hausa. As traditioed of the British ,at the end of the year , the units holds a get together bringing in traditions of all the major tribes in Ghana. Preceeding with inter company games before thefeasting , dancing etc. The British instead of calling it Battalion or Company Get -Together chose the Hausa name Wassa instead. All the years this tradition had caught up with the Military and Police, its quite surprising why today its been abbreviated to mean West Africa Security Service Asociation,which of course has no bearing with games , eating and dancing . The Armed Forces must not abbreviate this tradition.

When was the fist and last time we ever saw Ghana Navy in action (other than coups). Aytime any branch of our military receives even new knives, they have to make loud noises about super-readiness. Peace keeping (after the action), coups, harrassment of civilians even with what the police can handle, debt collection... That is what our military does best. Am I alone?

Tweakai. Pirates from where? This is just a bluff and trust me, if these hardened pirates mean to disturb our peace of mind, Ghana Navy, cannot stand them.
