The Defence Minister, Magashi Bashir, yesterday disclosed that the Federal Government has already completed plans to recruit officers and soldiers across the country.
The minister made this known at the headquarters of the Theatre Command in Maiduguri when he led the Chief of Defense Staff, General Lucky Irabor and other service chiefs on an operational visit.
Magashi explained that the recruitment is to cater for the manpower shortfalls as the country battles insurgency and banditry.
The Minister said the motive of the visit was to assess the fighting spirit of the troops of operation Lafiya Dole and also to motivate them.
While addressing the troops, Magashi intimated them of the government’s plan to recruit more hands to relieve battle fatigued soldiers.
“Very soon we will embark on the recruitment of other soldiers and officers so that we improve the manpower holding of our armed forces,” he said.
