The Nigerian Army is set to commence three training across the country to forestall rising cases of criminality during the yuletide period, particularly in South-East, South-South, South-West and North-Central regions of the country.
The exercises are ‘Operation Golden Dawn III’ in the South-East; ‘Enduring Peace III’ in the North-Central and ‘Still Waters III’ in the South-South and South-West.
The Director, Army Public Relations, Brigadier-General Onyema Nwachukwu disclosed this while briefing journalists in Abuja on Friday.
