The exercise forms part of the Service’s deliberate operational policy of periodically rotating personnel deployed across theatres of operation to preserve combat effectiveness, mitigate operational fatigue and ensure the continuous delivery of decisive air and ground support in defence of Nigeria’s territorial integrity.

Under the leadership of the Chief of the Air Staff, Air Marshal Sunday Kelvin Aneke, troop rotation has become a key enabler of operational success, reflecting the understanding that personnel welfare and mission accomplishment are mutually reinforcing. As one contingent concludes its operational tour and proceeds on well-deserved rest and reunites with loved ones, another batch of well-trained personnel seamlessly assumes frontline responsibilities with renewed energy, ensuring uninterrupted operational tempo and sustained pressure on criminal elements and other threats to national security.

Coordinated by the Directorate of Regiment under the Operations Branch at Headquarters Nigerian Air Force, the rotation highlights the Service’s unwavering resolve to protect not only the nation but also the men and women entrusted with that responsibility.

Troops Sacrifices

By investing in the physical resilience, mental well-being and professional readiness of its personnel, the NAF continues to strengthen its capacity to project decisive air power while building a force that is always prepared, always capable and always ready to respond whenever duty calls.

He gave this charge on Wednesday, July 22, 2026 when the executives of the Niger Delta Students’ Union Government paid a courtesy visit to the Benin Zonal Directorate of the Commission.

Olukoyede who spoke through the Acting Director of the Benin Zonal Directorate, Deputy Commander of the EFCC, DCE Sa’ad Hanafi Sa’ad, urged the youths to be innovative, creative and explore the positive advantages that come with the internet.

“The internet does not have to be an avenue to impersonate, manipulate or fabricate lies to defraud others. Let the youths begin to use the internet to provide digital solutions to meet the needs of industries, homes and government,” he said.

He noted that many Nigerian youths are resourceful, innovative, creative and forward looking and warned those who seek to use the internet for negativity and fraud to desist from it. “We will continue to discharge our responsibility without fear or favour. Internet fraud is a crime, so we will not relent in arresting and prosecuting those found culpable,” he said.

He charged the students union executives to be role models in their campus. “As students’ union leaders, you have to be a good example and role model for others to see. You have to be good ambassadors. Leadership is by example. You have to lead the way,” he said. He also charged the students to collaborate with the Commission in propagating the message of integrity, accountability and transparency in their schools.

In his remarks, the National Secretary of the Union, Comrade Aighomwanhi Mascot said that the visit was to seek areas of collaboration and foster a long-lasting relationship between the Commission and the union. “We are seeking to explore ways to partner with your organization that will benefit the students and better our society,” he said.

He thanked the Commission for the reception noting that they have become better informed and educated about the activities of the Commission.

Similarly, Olukoyede on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, warned members of the Association of Motor Dealers of Nigeria, Edo State Branch not to become conduits for money launderers. He stated this when the new executive members of the association paid a courtesy visit to the Benin Zonal Directorate of the Commission.

The Chairman who spoke through DCE Sa’ad Hanafi Sa’ad urged the motor dealers’ executives to prevail on their members to obtain the Special Control Unit Against Money, SCUML, certification and comply with the money laundering laws and regulations.

“We are trying to protect your business. You must help us to help you. Register and obtain the SCUML certificate, and ensure you report suspicion transactions to the Commission,” he said.

The newly elected Chairman of the union, Goodluck Imadiyi said the visit was to introduce themselves to the leadership of the Commission and to seek collaboration on regulatory compliance in line with the Money Laundering Act. “We believe that the collaboration will significantly help in ridding Edo State of fraudulent activities in the automobile sector,” he stated.

Also on Wednesday July 22, 2026, DCE Sa’ad Hanafi Sa’ad urged the executives of the National Association of Nigeria Travel Agencies, NANTA, Eastern Zone who paid a courtesy visit to the Benin Zonal Directorate to uphold professionalism in the discharge of their duties, noting that the Commission receives avalanche of petitions relating to visa fraud in the zone.

Responding, the coordinator of NANTA, Edo State chapter, Dr. Osaretin Daniel Okpiavbe noted that the reason for their visit was to seek ways to collaborate with the Commission on fraud prevention and to support the efforts at maintaining credibility within the industry.

He commended the Commission for its steadfast commitment in combating financial crimes and safeguarding the integrity of Nigeria’s economic and business environment.

Distinguished Members of the Police High Command, Members of the Governing Council of the Institute, Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen, and our esteemed Commissioners of Police to be inducted.
Eereporter.com

I bring you warm greetings from the President and Governing Council of the Institute of Conflict Management and Negotiation Analysts (ICMNA).

The President of the Institute sincerely regrets his inability to be physically present at this important occasion due to unavoidable official commitments.

He has, however, conveyed his profound appreciation to the Nigeria Police Force for this strategic partnership and has requested me to deliver this address on his behalf and to perform the induction ceremony.

It is therefore my honour and privilege to represent the President & the Governing Council of the Institute on this significant occasion.

Today marks another significant milestone in the advancement of professional excellence, ethical leadership, and strategic conflict management within our nation.

Permit me, on behalf of the Governing Council and the entire membership of the Institute of Conflict Management and Negotiation Analysts (ICMNA), to congratulate each one of you on the successful completion of the Two-Day Executive Training Programme for Commissioners of Police organized by the Nigerian Police Force.

The theme of this programme, “Enhancing Strategic Communication, Media Relations, Thought Leadership, Emotional Intelligence, Public Relations and Excellence in the Nigeria Police Force,” reflects the realities of modern policing. Contemporary law enforcement demands far more than operational competence; it requires leaders who communicate effectively, inspire confidence, manage conflict professionally, negotiate with wisdom, and build enduring public trust.

The Institute recognizes that the competencies developed through this executive programme are closely aligned with the core values and professional framework of conflict management and negotiation.

* Strategic communication strengthens understanding and prevents unnecessary conflict.
* Media relations promote transparency, credibility, and public confidence.
* Thought leadership equips leaders to influence positive institutional change.
* Emotional intelligence enables effective decision-making under pressure while fostering empathy and professionalism.
* Public relations enhances collaboration between law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve.

Collectively, these competencies form the foundation of effective conflict prevention, negotiation, mediation, leadership, and sustainable peacebuilding, which are the very principles upon which the Institute of Conflict Management and Negotiation Analysts was established.

It is in recognition of your successful participation in this executive programme, your commitment to professional development, and your dedication to ethical leadership that the Institute has found you worthy of admission into its professional body as Certified Conflict and Negotiation Professionals (CPs).

This induction is therefore not merely the presentation of a certificate or the conferment of a professional title. It is an affirmation that you have accepted a greater responsibility to serve as ambassadors of peace, ethical leadership, constructive dialogue, and professional excellence wherever your duties may take you.

As members of this Institute, you are expected to uphold the highest standards of integrity, professionalism, accountability, confidentiality, and continuous learning. You are also expected to promote peaceful conflict resolution, effective negotiation, and responsible leadership in the discharge of your official responsibilities and in service to our nation.

At this point, the formal admission into the Institute requires your public affirmation of allegiance to its Constitution, Code of Ethics, values, and professional obligations.

Administration of the Oath

May I respectfully request all inductees to kindly rise.

Please raise your right hand and repeat after me as I administer the Oath of Allegiance.

(The President proceeds with the Oath of Allegiance.)

After the Oath

Congratulations.!!!

By the authority vested in me as the President of the Institute of Conflict Management and Negotiation Analysts (ICMNA), and having taken the Oath of Allegiance and pledged to uphold the Constitution, Code of Ethics, and professional standards of the Institute, I hereby admit you into the Institute as Certified Conflict Management and Negotiation Professionals (Ps), with all the rights, privileges, responsibilities, and obligations pertaining thereto.

ICMNA

You are now ambassadors of professionalism, ethical leadership, peaceful conflict management, strategic negotiation, and institutional excellence.

On behalf of the Governing Council and the entire membership of the Institute, I warmly welcome you into the ICMNA family.

May your membership inspire greater service, exemplary leadership, and lasting contributions to the Nigeria Police Force and our nation.

Congratulations, and welcome to the Institute.
