Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai, on Friday considered establishment of a Command Secondary School in Southern Kaduna as requested by the Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, saying he has directed the appriopriate authority to begin work on its realisation.

El-Rufai had on Tuesday, December 5, when the COAS paid him a courtesy visit ahead of this year’s Chief of Army Staff Conference held Kaduna, called on the Army Chief to consider the establishment of Command Secondary School in Southern Kaduna to spur more military presence in the area thereby checking security risks in that part of the state.

El-Rufai on that day noted, that the southern part of the State had produced prominent top military officers including service chiefs, adding that citing a command school would be a tribute to their dedication, pledging the state government’s commitment to providing the needed facilities including donation an existing secondary school for the purpose.

Speaking during the official closing ceremony of the conference held at Trade Fair Complex, l Kaduna, in addition to directive on possible establishment of the school, the Army was also considering making Birni Gwari forest a training ground to check baditry and other crimes in the axis.

According to Buratai, “The conference has afforded the NA to evaluate our activities for the year 2019 and come up with projection into 2020. We have reviewed our training, operational and adminstrative activities as well as other security to enhance the army.

“I have directed the Chief of Army Administration to commence establishment of Army command secondary school in Southern Kaduna,” he added.

He also charged commander to be conscious and make judicious use of resources under their charge while discharging their responsibilities. I will not hesitate to personally hold you responsible and accountable for any form of indiscipline and misconduct,” he warned.

Officially declaring the conference close, Gov Nasir El-Rufai suggested making Kaduna a permanent host of the annual conference – that is if army authority agreed.

“I reiterate my request again that this conference should come here again and again. Iwant to on behalf of all residents of Kaduna State congratulate you for a successful conference.

“I hope you enjoyed the hospitality of our people and we enjoyed your presence. We wish the conference will go on and on and you will make it your permanent place for the conference.

“I am happy that transformation of the Army taking place in spite of daunting challenges. we are also happy that the Army has come up with world class innovations.

“I have no doubt that in no distant future, the Nigerian Army will be self sufficient in production of their needs,” he added.

Politicians and unnecessary attention seeking.....won't the hosting be done with money?.....Well if that is what his pple want they should carry go

Useless Islamic terrorists.

A region that produced prominent military chiefs should get a secondary school while buratai and the other idiot send universities to their useless villages.

God punish you all. Useless bastards

Mere sec.schl in Southern Kaduna?? Meanwhile, there is massive concentration of major military establishments in northern Kaduna e.g.NDA, DICON, Air Training School, Depot NA, Command & Staff College etc.Continue!

Why the stupid suggestion of making Kaduna the permanent venue for the annual COAS conference? There are about 8major divisions in the Nigerian Army today with different units underneath so why localizing it to Kaduna only?
Nepotism in action.

What is ever going to satisfy you guys. Really

How is locating a Command Secondary School in Southern Kaduna going to improve security?

Both El Rufai and Buratai are not thinking.

Full Brigade Command HQ was victim of multiple security breaches by terrorists. What is a mere secondary school to do to deterr bandits and bokoharam?

Even Jaji, in Kaduna, which would be like our Pentagon, was attacked and the General fled, boko haram had a full day of operation and Army was unable to counterforce.

Our military force is just titles and exhibitions, they are models parading uniform, brass epaulettes and guns....they are incapable of "force" against an enemy assault.

They're very capable sir. It can never happen under General Obasanjo. Leadership matters.

I don't want to see this thrash in front page. Mods take note

hell Rufai always feel he's something when he had been relegated by cabals

So leadership under Obasanjo would create a Command Secondary School in a troubled area to make it more secured?

I mean the Nigerian army is 'capable of "force" against an enemy assault'. the only difference is the leader.
