Does the US have a military agenda in Ghana?

The United States Maritime Affairs Officer for West Africa, Captain David Roller is rubbishing perceptions that the Africa Partnership Station is part of a scheme to carry the United States Government’s military agenda in Africa. So the US government continues to spearhead the agenda whilst it canvasses support from other countries. 

A popular conspiracy theorist and journalist in the United States of America, Alex Jones mentions in his documentary entitled ‘the Obama Deception’ that the US Government intends to use its military to maintain dominance to push its military agenda in parts of the world including Africa. When Obama visited Ghana in 2009, there was information that the US was considering having a permanent base in Africa to establish its new African Command also known as AFRICOM and Ghana was a candidate. This prompted a raging debate which was later eclipsed.

Many however believe this agenda is going on indirectly through the Africa Partnership Station, an initiative spearheaded by the United States of America to develop the Navies of some countries in Ghana. The Africa Partnership Station enters its fourth year. This week US naval personnel aboard the HSV 2 Swift are training personnel from the Western Naval Command
