JUST IN. Pictures of Troops attacked by IMN in Zuba. Please find attached additional pictures of troops who were pelted and attacked by IMN at Zuba yesterday. The public is please to note.

It would be a pity and somewhat of an oversight if military does not have video footage of events knocking about somewhere. In today's world where every adventure action is recorded by Gopro and individual privacy is almost privilege in everyday life under mobile phone video camera siege, Nigeria army must must make use of these advantages. Too many want Nigeria military brought down a peg or two, Nigeria military need to protect itself with evidence only the irrational will challenge.

PERSONNEL WELFARE: NAF COMMISSIONS RESIDENTIAL ACCOMMODATION FOR OFFICERS IN JOS

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) today, 29 October 2018, commissioned 2 additional blocks of 10 one-bedroom furnished accommodation for single officers at 551 NAF Station Jos, Plateau State. The commissioning further emphasises the high premium which the current NAF leadership places on the welfare of its personnel for enhanced operational efficiency. Speaking during the commissioning, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, who was represented by the Chief of Administration, Headquarters NAF, Air Vice Marshal Kingsley Lar, stated that the project was geared towards enhancing the welfare of personnel to enable them focus on their tasks and contribute in adding value to the Service.

While congratulating the beneficiaries of the new accommodation, the CAS enjoined them to make the best use of the facilities and also ensure their proper maintenance at all times. Speaking further, Air Marshal Abubakar said that the Service would not relent in ensuring that every personnel was adequately accommodated for increased productivity. He reiterated the need for all personnel to be mindful of the fact that the task of nation building is a collective responsibility especially as the nation currently faces several security challenges. He added that one of the paramount constitutional responsibilities of the NAF is the protection of lives and property of all Nigerians, not minding their political or religious affiliations.

Earlier in his welcome address, the Commander 551 NAF Station, Air Commodore Kabiru Aliyu, expressed appreciation to the CAS for the continuous infrastructural development extended to the Unit. According to him, the newly commissioned project, which would further reduce the burden of accommodation on the Base, would not have been possible without the dedication, wisdom and support of the CAS. Dignitaries at the commissioning ceremony included the representative of the Plateau State Governor, the Commissioner for Information Plateau State, Mr Yakubu Datti, serving and retired senior military officers as well as heads of security agencies in Plateau State. It would be recalled that the NAF, on 14 May 2018, completed and commissioned several projects in Kerang, Plateau State. Some of which include the Group Headquarters Complex of the newly established 205 Combat Search and Rescue Group (CSARG), a block of 10 one-bedroom accommodation for Non-Commissioned Officers and a block of 6 one-bedroom Single Officers’ Quarters. Others are the Commander’s Official Residence and 4 x 2-bedroom residential accommodation for Senior Non-Commissioned Officers serving in the Unit.

“Peaceful Protest” becoming riots.

Apparently the clash with the army was a coincidence, the soldiers were not sent to confront them, they were transporting sensible materials and unfortunately ran into the protest which led to the attack.

Of course the soldiers opened fire.

No there aren't suppressors but am thinking in the same direction that the riffle might be standard issue for her regiments. Then the Tarvor fiffle for SF/QRF, just saying.

ADDRESS BY THE CHIEF OF ARMY STAFF LIEUTENANT GENERAL TUKUR YUSUF BURATAI AT THE OCCASION OF THE GROUND BREAKING CEREMONY OF THE NIGERIA ARMY UNIVERSITY BIU
ON 30 OCTOBER 2018

It is with great joy, privilege and honour that I stand before you today at the Presidential Ground breaking ceremony of the Nigerian Army University, Biu. Whenever a national army, such as the Nigerian Army leaves its professional domain of legal exhibition of violence and starts thinking, acting, researching and venturing into academic and intellectual affairs, it tends to arouse societal attention principally because an army of a nation is basically, professionally established to fight adversaries, defend the nation, secure and contribute to the development of the nation and its citizens.

It is in the context of the aforementioned facts that the leadership of the Nigerian Army conceptualized and articulated ideas which led to the establishment of the Nigerian Army University Biu.

National Armies of the 21st century are ICT- compliant, technology-based and science-prone establishments. The Nigerian Army need not be left out in this regard. The test of credibility of the Nigerian Army when supported by the university will therefore not only rely on its capability and capacity to execute legal violence in defending and securing the Nigerian nation, but also, its ability to contribute to her equipment replenishments which would add to national economic development.

This envisioned university would develop the Nigerian Army capacity to compete professionally and responsively with other armies of the world. These noble objectives are the precipitating ingredients which crystallized the founding of the Nigerian Army University Biu. It is my hope that with the support of relevant stakeholders in the founding of the University, the principal which is the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, the noble objectives of the university will be achieved.

The Nigerian Army is highly grateful to the President, Commander-in-Chief, the Federal Executive Council, the Minister of Defence, the Federal Ministry of Education, the National Universities Commission as also the Tertiary Education Trust Fund for their roles in the establishment of this unique, Nigerian Army technology-driven university.

Let me at this juncture specially appreciate His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Borno State, Alhaji Kashim Shettima, for graciously giving us this land of 5,000 hectres to build this great institution. My special thanks also go to His Royal Highness Alhaji Umar Mai Mustapha Aliyu, the Emir of Biu for his kind support towards the establishment of this university.

I will not fail to appreciate the Implementation Committee, the Nigerian Army University Biu Steering Committee and The University Transitional Governing Council headed by Maj Gen MA Efeovbokhan (rtd) who worked tirelessly to see that the establishment of NAUB comes to fruition. I also appreciate the Chairman of Fordmax Nigeria Limited, Mr Jack Rich, the NDDC, Total E and P, International Oil Companies and other organizations who have contributed immensely towards the smooth take off of this university. Last but not the least, I want to appreciate the prominent sons and daughters of Biu and Borno State at large for your warmth, hospitality and support to the Nigerian Army.

Your Excellency, the President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, sir, distinguished ladies and gentlemen, I thank you all for honouring our invitation.
May God bless us all.
Long Live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Long Live the Nigerian Army.
