Gusau explained that the routine physical fitness march is designed to promote synergy, discipline, and esprit de corps among personnel of the Armed Forces and sister security agencies.
The DHQ, however, appealed to members of the public, especially road users within the Asokoro–AYA axis, to take note of the exercise and use alternative routes as may be directed by officials of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and other traffic management authorities who will be on ground to ensure smooth traffic flow.
“The Defence Headquarters regrets any inconvenience the temporary diversion may cause and appreciates the understanding and cooperation of the general public,” the statement added.
