The 013, Quick Response Force (QRF), Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Minna, has advocated enhanced synergy with the Training and Doctrine Command, Nigerian Army (TRADOC NA) in the fight against banditry.

The commander, Group Capt. Austine Idoko made the call when he paid a familiarisation visit to the commander of TRADOC, Maj.- Gen. Kevin Aligbe.

This was contained in a statement by Lt.- Col. Sani Uba, the spokesperson for TRADOC, Minna, on Monday.

Mr Idoko appreciated the commander for the level of cooperation and support TRADOC NA has rendered to NAF Minna over the years.

He appealed for more collaboration to enable NAF to perform more effectively.

“The TRADOC NA and 013 ORF NAF are among the critical stakeholders in our operational environment.

“I am on a courtesy visit to stakeholders within the Area of Responsibility (AOR) for improved operational collaboration and coordination of military duties,” he said.

He said the visit aimed to seek more strategic guidance from the commander.

Responding, Aligbe assured the commander of maximum support, especially in the areas of training, operational engagements and logistics.
