The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt Gen Faruk Yahaya, has reiterated his resolve and commitment in addressing infrastructural development, as well as ensuring the welfare of Nigerian Army (NA) personnel, IgbereTV reports.
The COAS stated this during the commissioning ceremony of remodeled Army Headquarters (AHQ) Annex A Complex, situated at Asokoro, Abuja.
Gen Yahaya emphasized, that the successful completion of the project was propelled by deliberate efforts toward the realization of conducive working conditions for personnel, in order to enhance administrative and operational efficiency.
This, he noted, is in consonance with his vision to have “a Professional Nigerian Army, Ready to Accomplish Assigned Missions within a Joint Environment in Defence of Nigeria”.
He added that the complex, which will accommodate three departments and an independent directorate, will decongest the main AHQ complex and provide a working environment favourable to officers and soldiers.
The COAS further disclosed that the edifice will provide office accommodation for the Departments of Army Transformation and Innovation, Civil-Military Affairs, Special Services and Programmes, as well as Nigerian Army Finance Corporation
