He said, Government appreciates the support of the British government in building capacity and capabilities of the Nation’s Armed Forces to be combat ready in dealing with threats by violent extremists.

While tracing the historical linkage between UK and Nigeria he said the Military bilateral Cooperation between the two Countries should be taken to higher pedestal especially now that the Nation hinges towards ending terrorism, banditry and kidnapping.
