Imanue Easyklean Ltd is an Abuja based Company that produces uniforms for a number of security outfits attached to foreign embassies in Nigeria.
Air Commodore Adesanya recalled that the ultra-modern tailoring workshop was commissioned in June 2017 by the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar to ensure ample and timely provision of uniforms to personnel at low cost.
“It also has the value added advantage of serving as a training facility for NAF personnel of the Tailoring Specialty.
“The workshop, with a total of eighty-six different industrial tailoring machines, has facilities obtainable in world class tailoring facilities.
“The idea behind the establishment of the workshop is to consolidate on Nigerian Air Force (NAF) efforts at self-sufficiency by developing the capacity for local production of military uniforms in large quantities.
“The facility, which is also available to meet the tailoring needs of schools, institutions and general public, is obviously positioned to make huge foreign exchange savings for the nation.
