CDS PLEDGES COMMITMENT TO UPSCALE MILITARY OPERATIONS

The Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Lucky Irabor has restated the Nigerian military’s commitment to upscaling its operational capacities in a bid to forestall lasting peace in all the nooks and crannies of the country. 

The CDS disclosed this yesterday at an event to flag-off the “Project Zero Hunger” (Each One Feed One) programme jointly organized by the National Commission for Refugees, Migrants and Internally Displaced Persons (NCFRMI) and the Defence and Police Officers’ Wives Association (DEPOWA) at the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) Camp in Durumi, Abuja. 

General Irabor also said that Mr President had mandated the Armed Forces and other security agencies to ensure that the security situation in the country is brought to a reasonable closure soon in order to enable farmers return to their farms, so as to guarantee food security in record time. 

The CDS lauded the men on the frontline in the battle against insurgency for their dedication but also noted that the military had a lot of mileage to cover in terms of improving the security situation in the country.

General Irabor heaped praises on NCFRMI and DEPOWA for their partnership which he said; “Supports the kinetic and non-kinetic operations of the military”. He added that their medical outreach, humanitarian and social intervention programmes have boosted its Civil-Military engagements while galvanizing community support and goodwill for military operations.

On her part, the DEPOWA President, Barr(Mrs) Vickie Irabor said that the scourge of internally displaced persons in Nigeria will be a thing of the past once insecurity is nipped in the bud.

The Project Zero Hunger event was also held simultaneously at the Karu and Keffi IDP Camps in Nasarawa State. Same will be replicated in the six Geo-Political zones of the country, according to the organisers.
