His Excellency President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR closed out his illustrious eight-year administration with an eye-watering Presidential Fleet Review 2023 hosted by the Nigerian Navy. The impressive fleet was rejuvenated under this administration, facilitating improved service delivery and upholding its constitutional mandate. Regarded as one of the most supportive governments to the Armed Forces, under his Excellency’s leadership the Nigerian Navy has once again become a force to be reckoned with across Africa’s shores.

The Chief of the Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Awwal Gambo CFR, lauded the transformative impact of Buhari’s administration, noting the ongoing construction of numerous patrol vessels and warships currently on order to be added to the ever-growing fleet. This expansion and modernization of the Navy’s fleet stands as a testament to the unwavering support provided by the Buhari administration.
