The coast line and territorial waters of Sierra Leone and the wider Gulf of Guinea is a challenging maritime environment with great potential and opportunity.
This opportunity continues to be seized by unscrupulous people and organisations who conduct illegal, unregulated and unreported fishing who traffic not only drugs and weapons but people.
The access to world class education and training in UK will continue to support RSLAF and the Maritime Wing and help defeat the corrupt people who seek to plunder the natural resources of the coast and waters.
The UK Government and military remain committed to the unique and strong relationship they have built with the RSLAF. Defence Attache Paul Carnell said Lieutenant Hindowa is to be congratulated on his success on the International Sub Lieutenants Course at HMS Collingwood.
“Continued access to UK and wider training opportunities will help secure the future of the rich, beautiful and diverse environment of the Sierra Leonean coast and waters,” Paul Carnell noted.
