The President of the Republic presided over the baptism ceremony of the patrol vessel “Le Cayor” this morning, marking a key step in strengthening our national navy’s capabilities. This state-of-the-art ship is equipped with the latest technologies to address current security challenges.
The Head of State warmly congratulated the national navy and all Senegalese armed forces for their exemplary commitment and professionalism. Thanks to their dedication, Senegal can tackle threats such as illegal fishing and irregular immigration, ensuring the security of our marine resources and offshore oil and gas installations.
This new patrol vessel embodies our country’s determination to protect its vital interests and assert its sovereignty over its waters. The national navy, with its courage and determination, remains the sentinel of our maritime sovereignty. Together, let’s build a sovereign, safer, and forward-looking Senegal.
