COAS Lagbaja Commissions Army Regiment Headquarters in Ogun

The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja, has commissioned the remodeled Headquarters 12 Field Engineer Regiment (12 FER) at Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State.

The project executed by the Commanding Officer of the unit, Lieutenant Colonel Alfred Enias was inaugurated on Tuesday 2 September 2024 during the COAS’ operational cum working tour to 81 Division Area of Responsibility.

Speaking at the commissioning, the COAS who noted that one of the essential beams of his Command philosophy is “Sound Administration”, averred that to drive home his Command philosophy, the Nigerian Army (NA) leadership has embarked on comprehensive renovation of barracks to provide conducive working and living conditions for personnel and their families. He clarified that he has focused on ensuring befitting accommodation and office space, as well as other critical barracks infrastructures. He expressed delight that the values of his Command Philosophy is trickling down to the low wrung of command and administration in the NA as witnessed in 12 FER. He lauded the Commander Corps of Engineers Maj Gen Philip Eromosele for leading the Army Engineers in the right direction.

Early in his welcome remarks, the Commanding Officer 12 FER, Lt Col Alfred Enias had said the occasion marks a milestone in the history of the Regiment, adding that previously, the Regiment Headquarters complex was deficient in office spaces and other complementary facilities needed in the Headquarters and to address the challenge he promptly committed the resources of the Regiment to execute the project. He appreciated the COAS for his support. Highlight of the event was the unveiling of the commemoration plaque.

While in Ijebu-Ode, Gen Lagbaja also paid a visit to His Royal Majesty Oba Dr Sikiru Kayode Adetona Awujale of Ijebuland, where he informed the royal father that troops of the Nigerian Army conduct operations along the interchange between Ijebu-Ode and other parts of the south west. He thanked the Awujale for mobilizing support for the troops in the conduct of their operations.

Responding, Oba Adetona, who
described Nigeria as a beautiful country with enormous potential, encouraged the Ijebu youth to join the Army to serve their fatherland. He urged the COAS to uphold truth and sincerity in his command of the NA in order to take it to greater height. The royal father presented a book he authored, titled “Awujale: The Autobiography of Alaiyeluwa Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona Ogbagba II” for the NA Library.

The courtesy visit was witnessed by the Obas in council, Commander Corps of Engineers, some principal staff officers as well as the General Officers Commanding 2, and 81 Divisions of the NA.
