Speaking at the NAF Administration and Personnel Management Seminar in Abuja, Air Marshal Abubakar emphasised that NAF’s strategic use of airpower will ensure that criminals, even in ungoverned spaces, have nowhere to hide.
“We will find, fix, and strike all those who take arms against the State, and we will not relent until Nigeria is safe for all,” he vowed.
He also stressed that effective administration and personnel management are critical to military success, highlighting the need for modernised Human Resource Management (HRM), digitalised record-keeping, and enhanced training.
Under his leadership, NAF has expanded significantly, with over 2,972 personnel benefiting from new or renovated housing and 601 undergoing specialised training to improve leadership and management skills.
