CAS Inspects Key Projects at NAF Base, Bauchi; Reaffirms Commitment to Strategic Partnership with ATBU on Technical/Human Capacity Development In furtherance of his Command Philosophy of transforming the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) for greater agility and resilience to effectively meet the airpower demands of Nigeria's national security in all operational environments, the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Hasan Abubakar, on 1 October 2024 paid a working visit to NAF Base Bauchi. A statement by the Director of NAF Public Relations and Information, Air Commodore Olusola Akinboyewa said that during the visit, the CAS inspected ongoing infrastructural developments and reiterated their importance as vital enablers in advancing the NAF's transformation. "During the visit, the CAS interacted directly with NAF personnel, addressing their concerns and offering practical solutions to further enhance operational efficiency". "These actions speak to his broader strategic vision to ensure that all NAF units are optimally prepared to meet emerging security challenges". The CAS commended the significant infrastructural progress at NAF Base Bauchi, particularly in enhancing personnel welfare and providing a conducive working environment. He reiterated that, “Our ability to meet national security challenges depends on maintaining a highly motivated and focused force, which is why welfare and infrastructural renewal are top priorities.” Speaking further, Air Marshal Abubakar highlighted the need for continuous improvement in the maintenance of air assets, noting that a solid maintenance culture is essential for sustaining air operations in all environments. The visit to Bauchi also afforded the CAS an opportunity for a comprehensive assessment of facilities at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University (ATBU) Centre for Science and Technology Entrepreneurship Development (CSTED), Tafawa Balewa. The CSTED is integral to consultations on strategic partnership between the NAF and ATBU, for optimisation of technical human capacity development as well as Research and Development (R&D) for the NAF. The assessment of facilities at CSTED was conducted alongside the Vice Chancelor ATBU, Professor Sani Usman Kunya and other key staff of the University, with Honourable Barrister Jafaru Gambo Leko, Member of the House of Representatives representing the Bogoro/Dass/Tafawa Balewa Constituency, also present.
