AIR LOGISTICS SUPPORT: CDS COMMENDS NAF AS EXERCISE OMO OLOJA HOLDS IN LAGOS The Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Abayomi Olonisakin, has commended the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) for its continued delivery of credible Air Power in the North East and other parts of the country as well as across the West African Sub-Region. The CDS gave this commendation yesterday, 14 August 2018, during the Logistics Command (LC) Air Logistics Support Simulation Exercise (SIMEX) held at 631 Aircraft Maintenance Depot (631 ACMD), Lagos. The SIMEX dubbed “OMO OLOJA”, meaning "the Trader" or "Peddler of Goods", was designed on a scenario based on the need to provide rapid airlift of humanitarian relief materials to a fictitious nation of 37 provinces which had been devastated by natural disaster. In his keynote address, the CDS, who was Guest of Honour at the event, expressed delight to flag-off such a significant exercise because of the importance of logistics to the successful conduct of contemporary military operations. “Without logistics, success cannot be guaranteed. You may plan the most audacious battle, manned by the most highly skilled personnel with the most advanced weapon systems; but if you don’t have ordinary drinking water for the troops, or lack the capacity to move men and materiel to the right place at the right time; all may come to nothing. That is why it is often said that ‘if you don’t have logistics you don’t have anything”, he said. Speaking further, General Olonisakin lauded the NAF for its robust human capacity building initiatives which had enabled the Service perform its constitutional roles creditably. He also commended the CAS for organizing the SIMEX which, he said, would further build NAF’s capacity to provide efficient and timely logistics support for the effective conduct of operations of the Nigerian Armed Forces. The CDS also seized the opportunity to thank the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, President Muhammadu Buhari, for making the modernization, re-equipping and continuous training of the Nigerian Armed Forces a top priority. In his opening remarks, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, stressed the importance of Air Power in modern warfare not only in offensive and defensive roles but also in collection of credible and timely intelligence as well as the swift and efficient airlift of forces within and across theatres of operation. He noted that the security challenges currently facing the country and the West African Sub-Region would continue to make Air Power imperative for the effective discharge of Nigeria’s obligations in ensuring sub-regional stability, as demonstrated during the Gambian crisis. The CAS described air logistics support as one of NAF's core functions that would continue to make this possible. He added that it had become crystal clear that without air logistics support, it was virtually impossible to successfully prosecute modern warfare. Accordingly, the CAS said the NAF would continue to conduct realistic, practical and functional training exercises, like Exercise OMO OLOJA, to ensure it was fully prepared to provide necessary logistics support to meet national security imperatives as well as in support of humanitarian relief operations in aid to Civil Authority. The CAS ended by thanking the CDS for reviewing the SIMEX and providing guidance for its effective conduct. Earlier in his welcome address, the Air Officer Commanding LC (AOC LC), Air Vice Marshal (AVM) Remigius Ekeh, stated that Exercise OMO OLOJA was aimed at practicing participants in the conduct of a medium scale airlift operation with a view to enhancing coordination between operations, logistics and aircraft engineering staff for the effective and efficient execution of air logistics operations. AVM Ekeh also disclosed that similar training exercises would be conducted by other NAF Commands in line with their core functions. He thanked the CAS for choosing LC as the vanguard of these series of training exercises across the Service. The SIMEX also featured briefings from the Exercise Director and Heads of the various Cells who gave details of their various roles in facilitating the movement of a total of 400,000 lbs of relief materials using designated aircraft and ground transportation. Highlight of the event was the loading and airlift of some consignments of relief materials by the C-130H heavy airlift aircraft.

bidexiii:Laff wan kee me when I see cathode ray tube for real do some of our aircrafts still use CRT? the rays from that shit fit penetrate pilot visor damage him eye(na joke oo). But for real this foreign technicians are ripping their customers off haba how can one reconcile the humongous difference in cost(72m vs 200k)? No wonder Russian birds are very cheap compared to America and other western nations bird because they hardly give after purchase support/spare parts so that you will still come back to them. |

bidexiii:The easiest way to fund this insurgency war and in extension the welfare of our troops, the government should codedly make Nigerians pay extra N1 for every litre of fuel bought. This way we can raise billions of naira. We consume about 60million litres of PMS daily, just imagine the enormous amount of money that will be generated in 6months, mind you this is excluding diesel, gas, kerosene etc oo. But this is Nigeria even if they implement it, senior men them go still corner their thing. |

Re: Battle Field Discussion (picture/video) Of African Military . by allexpensive: 10:16pm On Aug 15, 2018 |
jakeporeshenko: Not ahqsg. What I'm trying to say is that they're guys used by ONSA /DHQ/MOD for covert operations. The Army has something similar runned by its leadership. I know someone who is part of the team. He was trained in s foreign country. After serving his term in the NE, his unit and everything changed. They called him in. We're okay here in the airforce. I have seen documents from the top describe them as critical national assets. The SBS boys are being referred to as assets for marine terrorism or whatever. Hope I haven't said much. I requested for permission to post on my 3 days journey so I am awaiting response. |
