|
[PULSE.NG] The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) on Tuesday said it was battle ready to collaborate with other security forces to end banditry and other forms of criminality in Niger.
Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, Chief of Air Staff (CAS), made this known during an inspection of the air force facilities in Minna, Niger.
The CAS also paid a courtesy visit on Gov. Abubakar Bello of Niger at Government House, Minna.
"I have inspected our equipment and personnel on ground, I must tell you that we are combat ready to tackle the security challenges in parts of Niger state.
"The NAF will give air support to the army, police, Nigerian Security and Civil Defense Corps and others to ensure that we end the activities of suspected bandidos in the state,’’ he said.
Abubakar who was satisfied with the equipment and personnel deployed for the operation "Gama-Aiki" said "we are ready."
He said that the air force would collaborate with other security agencies to tackle the menace.
"We will continue to do our best to make sure that these criminal elements terrorising parts of the state are flushed out from their hideouts," he said.
The CAS assured the governor that NAF would deploy its medical personnel for free medical care to the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) camps across the state, as a result of incessant bandidos attacks on their communities.
