The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Faruk Yahaya, says the Nigerian army has remained resolute in tackling the myriad of security challenges in different parts of the country.
Yahaya made this known in Abuja at the opening of the 2021 Chief of Army Staff Conference with the theme, “Building Nigerian Army’s Capacity in Combating Emerging Security Threats in a Joint Operating Environment”.
He said the military committed to tackling the enormous security challenges across the six geopolitical zones.
These, he said, ranged from increased banditry and kidnapping, activities of the proscribed Indigeneous Peoples of Biafra and its Eastern Security Network and wanton killings.
Yahaya said the army had continued to record remarkable successes in all areas of operations aimed at protecting the lives and property of all Nigerians.
