117 Special Forces Inducted By Nigerian Air Force

Unic Press UK: The Nigerian Air Force inducted Friday 117 Special Forces (SF) to bulwark its service to the nation, including tackling the worrying degree of insecurity in most parts of the country, the Voice of Nigeria reports.

In a statement during the ceremony, the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, who was represented by the Air Officer Commanding (AOC) Grand Training Command, Air Vice Marshal Idi Amin, said:

“As we all know, the contemporary security challenges we are currently witnessing, necessitated the training of more personnel as special operatives. These operatives enable us to achieve effects outside the perimeter thereby conferring upon us the necessary advantages to confront asymmetric threats. I desired to transform the NAF into a highly professional and disciplined force through capacity building initiatives for effective, efficient and timely employment of air power in response to our national security imperatives. One of the key drivers of this vision hinges on human capacity development for improved professional performance.”
