Many ships sail through a large area of water called the Gulf of Guinea. This water stretches between two African countries—from Senegal to Angola. Bad people make this area dangerous by stealing from ships, taking people away, catching fish they should not catch, and bringing things into countries without permission.
The leader of Nigeria, President Bola Tinubu, wants to make these waters safer. He asked other African leaders to help create a special team of ships to protect everyone. He wants this team to work from Lagos, a big city in Nigeria. He shared this idea at an important meeting in Ethiopia, where many African leaders came together.
Nigeria wants to help other African countries by sending ships when they need help. These ships can bring food and supplies to people during hard times, help when disasters happen, or help when people need to make peace.
President Tinubu feels happy because Nigeria will teach other countries how to fight bad people who cause trouble. He wants to keep helping countries near Lake Chad stay safe. He thinks fixing problems in Libya would make nearby areas safer. He asked for more time to help bring peace to places like Sudan, where people need protection.
