The chief of Army Staff, Lt. General Taoreed Lagbaja, has assured troops of Operation Hadarin Daji of continuous support in providing needed logistics and guidance for the success of their operations.
He stated this in his remarks yesterday while declaring open a one-day seminar on warrior ethos, with the theme, “Optimising Warrior Ethos in the Nigerian Army; A Panacea for Operational Effectiveness”, organised by the Department of Army Transformation and Innovation.
Represented by the acting GOC, 8 Division, Brigadier General Ibikunle Ajose, he said the seminar is one of the many measures implemented to mitigate the challenges faced by the troops while operating in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous security environment.
He said, “I can assure you of my continuous support in providing the much-needed logistics and guidance required to execute your tasks.
“The Nigerian Army has continued to review its tactics, techniques and procedures to come up with both kinetic and non-kinetic strategies to defeat these challenges.
“This seminar was therefore premised on the need to improve the capacity of NA personnel towards enhancing warrior ethos and the battle-winning mentality.
“It will also highlight the threats of chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear terrorism in Nigeria.
He urged commanders at all levels to continue to develop innovative ideas to improve their approaches to improving man-management and battle readiness, which he said is in line with his Command Philosophy for the Nigerian Army.
COAS further commended the Department of Army Innovation and Transformation for organising the seminar, which he said would raise necessary operational and situational awareness of the troops, “implore you all to remain innovative and committed.”
