War Commander seeks traditional rulers' support
Maj.-Gen. Mayirenso Saraso, the Sector 2 Commander of Joint Task Force, Operation HADIN KAI, has visited traditional rulers in Yobe state to seek their support. The visit was in line with the tradition of the Nigerian Army and aimed at creating stronger civil-military relations in the state. Saraso appealed for more support from the emirs in information sharing and intelligence to bring about peace, improved socio-economic activities, and development in the state.

According to a statement signed by Capt. Kennedy Anyanwu, the Assistant Director of Army Public Relations, Sector 2 Operation HADIN KAI, Saraso, visited Dr Bashir Bukar, the Emir of Nguru, and Alhaji Mustapha Mai-Kyari, among other emirs. The emirs thanked the sector commander and his entourage for a visit and assured him of their support. They offered blessings and prayers for the war commander and his troops for a successful tour of duty in the state.

The statement further revealed that Saraso paid a familiar tour of military formations and units under his command, including 241 Battalion Nguru, 159 Battalion at Gashua, and one of the unit's-duty locations at Kanama. He urged officers and soldiers at the various locations to remain apolitical, disciplined and dedicated to their assigned duties.

The visit by Saraso is expected to strengthen the relationship between the military and traditional rulers in Yobe state, which will help fight against insurgency and other security challenges. It is also a testament to the Nigerian AArmy'scommitment to ensuring the safety and security of citizens in the Northeast region.

The Joint Task Force, Operation HADIN KAI, was established by the Nigerian Army to combat terrorism and other security challenges in the Northeast region. The task force comprises the Nigerian Army, Nigerian Air Force, Nigerian Navy, and other security agencies. The operation has recorded significant successes in the fight against insurgency and has helped restore the region's peace and stability.

The Nigerian Army has continued to engage with traditional rulers and other stakeholders in the fight against insurgency and other security challenges in the country. This approach has helped to build trust and confidence between the military and the civilian population, which is critical in winning the war against terrorism.

The visit by Saraso to traditional rulers in Yobe state is, therefore, a step in the right direction and a demonstration of the Nigerian AArmy'scommitment to working with all stakeholders to ensure the safety and security of citizens in the Northeast region.
