The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Faruk Yahaya, has asserted that logistics remains a critical component in war, if decisive success must be achieved.
The COAS made this known in his remarks at the Combat Service Support Training Week 2021, held at Brigadier General KH Yakubu Officers’ Mess, Nigerian Army School of Supply and Transport (NASST), Ugbowo, Benin City, Edo State.
The COAS further stated that experiences in the North East and other theatres of operations have sufficiently demonstrated that the need for essential logistics supplies in all forms of operations cannot be over emphasised, if operational success must be made.
In the same vein, Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State re-affirmed the support of the Edo State Government for the Nigerian Army (NA), especially in light of the enormous and selfless sacrifices of troops, who put their lives in harm’s way, in order to foster peace, progress and development in the country.
The governor made this declaration during the event, while highlighting the State Government’s effort in the ongoing construction of a 20- room hostel accommodation for the NASST.
Also speaking at the event, the Commander Corps of Supply and Transport, Major General Bolaji Salami stated that the training week would afford the Combat Service Support Arms of the NA the opportunity to discuss topical issues that border on logistics and how best it could be streamlined in support of NA operations. He thereafter urged the participants to come up with a robust logistics blueprint that would assist the NA in defeating its adversaries.
Major highlights of the event, according to a press statement by the Director Army Public Relations, Brigadier General, Onyema Nwachukwu, was the inspection of the ongoing construction of the 20-room hostel accommodation by Governor Godwin Obaseki accompanied by the COAS, Principal Staff Officers from Army Headquarters and Corps Commanders and a static display of inventions and innovations by various combat service support corps of the NA.
