He gave the assurance during a briefing on the state of the Armed Forces by the Military High Command, led by the Chief of the Defence Staff, Lt Gen William Agyapong.

At the meeting, the Command acknowledged the government’s support, citing the acquisition of vehicles, ongoing retooling efforts and barracks regeneration projects intended to address accommodation challenges facing military personnel.

It also highlighted other interventions aimed at improving the operational capacity and welfare of troops.

Mr Adjei reiterated that the government would continue to provide the resources required to enable the military to effectively discharge its constitutional responsibilities.

He further disclosed that preparations were far advanced for the acquisition of strategic military assets for the three services.

The planned acquisitions include naval ships and aircraft, which are expected to enhance the operational readiness and capabilities of the Armed Forces.

The engagement focused on the government’s efforts to improve military infrastructure, strengthen the equipment base and enhance personnel welfare to support the Armed Forces in protecting Ghana’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
