Abuja road will be closed on Saturday for air force’s 10km walk: NAF
The Nigerian Air Force will conduct its annual 10-kilometre walk/jog exercise in Abuja on Saturday as part of efforts to enhance the health, fitness, and operational readiness of its personnel.
The air force disclosed this in a statement on Friday.
It said that the exercise underscored the importance of physical fitness to military efficiency and overall mission readiness.
The air force said the exercise, which would commence by 6:00 a.m. and end by 8:00 a.m., will take place along the service lane between Karu Bridge and Mogadishu Cantonment Bridge in the Abuja-Nyanya-Keffi expressway.
This will lead to the temporary closure of the road to vehicular movement during the period.
The air force said adequate arrangements had been made to ensure the safety of participants and residents, adding that normal traffic flow would resume immediately after the exercise.
