According to a statement from the NAF, the meeting was convened to strengthen precision air operations and deliver smarter, harder, and more decisive strikes as part of ongoing joint military campaigns across the country.
The engagement, the statement added, marks a decisive step in recalibrating NAF’s operational posture and deepening synergy with other security agencies.
Addressing the commanders, the Air Chief stressed the importance of agility, precision, and intelligence-driven warfare to effectively counter evolving threats nationwide.
“We must fly smarter and strike harder. Every mission must reflect professionalism, purpose, and patriotism,” he said.
Aneke also underscored the need for synchronised intelligence-led air, land, and maritime operations, noting that inter-service cooperation remains critical to achieving unified operational effectiveness.
Reaffirming his commitment to personnel welfare, innovation, and continuous training, he pledged to provide airmen and airwomen with the tools and skills needed for mission success.
“The safety and confidence of our citizens are our mission success indicators. Nigeria is counting on us, and we will not fail,” Aneke stated.
