PACK YOUR BAGS!! Federal Government To Send 157 Soldiers To South Sudan (SEE WHY)

The Nigerian Army is set to deploy 157 officers and soldiers for a peacekeeping mission in Abiye, South Sudan.

The Army authority, however, warned them to avoid acts like sexual exploitation and drug trafficking, capable of bringing Nigeria to shame.

Nigerian Army’s Chief of Operation, Major-General Boniface Sinjen, gave the warning while addressing the troops at the graduation ceremony from their pre-deployment training at the Martin Luther Agwai International Leadership and Peacekeeping Centre (MLAILPKC), Jaji, Kaduna state.

The troops, who are of the Nigerian Company 2 to the United Nations Interim Security Force in Abyei (NIGCOY 2 UNISFA), consisted of 15 officers and 142 soldiers.

Maj.-General Sinjen, while reminding the troops constantly to be guided by the rules of engagement while observing human rights and respecting diversity in the operating environment, told them to shun acts such as sexual exploitation, drug trafficking and other mission misconducts capable of tarnishing the image of Nigeria.

The Chief of Operations said the contingent’s graduation demonstrated the commitment and capacity of the Armed Forces of Nigeria to deploy quality peacekeepers as part of its contributions to global peace and security.
