Army Chief Charges Commanders on Multidimensional Approaches in Tackling Insecurity

The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Faruk Yahaya, has said that despite contemporary security challenges, the Nigerian Army under his leadership, is being repositioned to conduct its Operations efficiently.
