Insurgency: Army Chief Commissions 55 Combat Vehicles 
The Nigerian Army has procured and commissioned 55 Buffalo 4-Wheel vehicles to increase the mobility and combat efficiency of its personnel in mission areas, especially the ongoing counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency operations against Boko Haram terrorists and Islamic State in West Africa Province (ISWAP) in the North East.
The commissioning on Wednesday in Abuja was by the Chief of Logistics Nigerian Army, Major General Joel Uniugbe, who represented the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Yusuf Buratai.
Uniugbe said this was a strategic directive of the Chief of  Staff for year 2020 to sustain a responsive and professional Nigerian Army in its unrelenting fight against insurgency in the North-East.
He believes that the newly acquired vehicles would ease the troops’ mobility, movement of logistics and combat manoeuvres.
“The model of vehicle is an asset and indeed force multiplier particularly in the North East terrain where the Armed Forces of Nigeria is conducting operations against Boko Haram criminals,” he said
He assured that the Nigerian Army will continue to defend the nation from both the external and internal threats, as well as providing aids to civil authority in other national emergencies.
He commended the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Muhammadu Buhari for his committed leadership and support to the Nigerian Army.
The commissioned vehicles include Toyota Hiluxes, Buffaloes, Innoson Motor Vehicles, Peugeot among others.
