 The Nigerian Air Force says it is winning the war against terror in Nigeria. The MAF Director of Public Relations and Information, Edward Gapkret, said this during a parlay with defence correspondents here in Lagos. Plus TV Africa's Destiny Momo tells us more. National security is a major concern in Nigeria's development and the law enforcement agencies say they are working in synergy to combat terrorism in the country. Recently, the Air Force has had their first share of crashed helicopters and the cause of battle against terrorism. However, it spokesman Edward Gapkret says the iron deterred as the war against terror has been won. Absolutely, very well in conjunction with the Nigerian Army and Nigerian Navy, the synergy, the jointness that has been brought to bear because the war against insurgency, the banditry, has been using very fantastic results and as we are seeing, some of the terrorists have started surrendering willingly, you know, clearly an indication that the cooperation that has been brought in the fight against insurgency is really winning. Gapkret also speaks in the plan of the force to improve its capacity to protect the nation's territorial integrity. Last six years, the administration of President Mahmoud Buhari has been very, very kind to Nigerian Air Force. As of the last count, we have over 30 brand new aircraft that have been purchased for the service. These platforms have gone a long way in ensuring that we remain very relevant with regards to our operations. We have also been very fortunate that the federal government has supported us in also revamping those flights that were grounded in the past. Engineers have also been well trained and generally a lot of things are going on that we will be given thanks to the President and Commander-in-Chief. As the set of service chiefs is seemingly in sync with their readiness to combat terrorism in Nigeria, there is hope for better results. Destiny Marmour, for Plus TV Africa.
