To enhance security within the Lagos and Ogun states, the 81 Division of the Nigerian Army (NA) on Tuesday commenced this year’s operations planning cadre for officers.
Themed “Enhancing Operational Readiness through Effective Planning, Collaboration and Capacity Development”, the training, which was held at the Army Officers Mess, Marina, brought together security operatives from the military, police, Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), and other relevant stakeholders.
Speaking at the event, the General Officer Commanding (GOC) 81 Division, Maj.-Gen. Farouk Mijinyawa said the forum presented an opportunity for officers to develop improved strategies and facilitate interaction with various security personnel.
The Operations Planning Cadre is significant in that it affords the Nigerian Army a forum to brainstorm extensively and come up with better ways to project activities of the NA and to interface and rub minds with Officers within 81 Division AOR as well as representatives of sister services and other security agencies.
