The Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, on Tuesday, organised a feast to celebrate the Christmas for officers and personnel engaged in the war against Boko Haram insurgents in the North-east.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the grand Christmas Lunch was held at the Nigerian Air Force (NAF), 105 Composite Command, Maiduguri.

Mr Abubakar, who was represented by Muhammad Muhammadu, the Chief of Policy and Plans, NAF Headquarters, said the gesture was to enable the personnel to celebrate the season in a happy mood.

He said: “It is our tradition to host celebration of festive season for officers and personnel to foster comradeship and appreciate your efforts in the war against insurgency.

“I commend your sacrifices and urge you not to lose focus; maintain high vigilance and combat readiness throughout the festive season.
“Our objective is to ensure lasting peace in the Northeast and the country at large,” he said.

Mr Abubakar lauded President Muhammadu Buhari over his support and provision of equipment to the service.
The air chief reiterated the commitment of the service to be disciplined and professional in the discharge of its constitutional mandate.

James Gwani, the Air Task Force Commander, Operation LAFIYA DOLE, explained that the feast was part of the CAS’s commitments to improve the welfare of the personnel.

Mr Gwani, an air vice marshal, added that the gesture demonstrated NAF’s leadership commitment to giving the personnel a sense of belonging and improvement of their well being to boost their morale.

According to him, the Christmas lunch is designed to enable personnel who are away from their families to celebrate the season in a happy and joyous atmosphere.

Mr Gwani reiterated the commitment of the service to defeating Boko Haram insurgents and restoration of peace to the region.
Also, Wing Commander Muhammad Umar, the Commander, 105 Composite Command, commended the CAS over his commitment to the improvement of personnel welfare.

Mr Umar disclosed that the NAF authorities had approved the construction of additional 30 blocks of apartments for service men and women, and another 10 bedroom apartments for officers as well as religious places of worship in the command.

I have my doubts about this celebration. It could be a plot to know the Christians among them for possible execution by boko haram assault. If a whole ex CDS could be assassinated , anything is possible. This is logic .
