Sen. Bala Ibn Na'Allah, the chairman of the Senate Committee on Nigerian Airforce, has praised the Nigerian Airforce for the successful deployment of the Super Tucanos and the progress made thus far in addressing the country's present security concerns.
In a telephone conversation on Sunday, Na'Allah expressed his praise for the new Super Tucano fighter jets' ability to improve security agency operations.
In order to advance in their efforts to rid the nation of the remaining security issues, he asked the Nigerian Airforce to keep up the good work.
The chairman described the decision to acquire those platforms as one of the wisest taken by the Federal Government in terms of savings and operational flexibility.
He advised the Federal Government to consider increasing the number in order to significantly cut down the cost of running of the Airforce.
