Edo State Reaffirms Support For Nigeria Army’s Determination  To End Terrorism.

The Edo State Governor , Godwin Obaseki has re-affirmed the support of the  State Government for the Nigerian Army(NA).

The governor said especially in light of the enormous and selfless sacrifices of troops,  put their lives in harms way, in order to foster peace,  progress and development in the country.

 

The governor  made this declaration during  the Combat Service Support Training Week 2021, held at Brigadier General KH Yakubu Officers’ Mess, Nigerian Army School of Supply and Transport (NASST), Ugbowo, Benin City, Edo State.

 

While highlighting the State Government’s effort in the ongoing construction of a 20- room hostel accommodation for the NASST, the Commander Corps of Supply and Transport, Major General Bolaji Salami stated that the training week would afford the Combat Service Support Arms of the NA the opportunity to discuss topical issues that border on logistics and how best it could be streamlined in support of NA operations.

 

He thereafter urged the participants to come up with a robust logistics blueprint that would assist the NA in defeating its adversaries.

 

The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Faruk Yahaya  asserted that logistics remain a critical component in war, if decisive success must be achieved.

 

 

The COAS further stated that experiences in the North East and other theatres of operations have sufficiently demonstrated that the need for essential logistics supplies in all forms of operations cannot be over emphasized, if operational success must be made.

 

 

 

Major highlights of the event was the inspection of the ongoing construction of the 20-room hostel accommodation by Governor Godwin Obaseki accompanied by the COAS, Principal Staff Officers from Army Headquarters and Corps Commanders and a static display of inventions and innovations by various combat service support corps of the NA.
