Former CAS Expresses Gratitude To President, Colleagues For Support During Tenure
The outgoing Chief of the Air Staff (CAS), Air Marshal Sadique Abubakar, has written to express sentiments of gratitude to President Buhari, all members of the current administration, as well as the entire officers of the Nigeria Air Force, NAF, for their immense support which contributed to a successful tenure as CAS
In a 4-paragrahed statement posted on his Twitter handle earlier today, Air Marshal Abubakar also thanked all Nigerians for their support, ”especially all who sent messages of congratulations and goodwill on the occasion of my retirement from the Service”, and prayed that the Almighty God grants success in all their various endeavours.
He further urged all to extend even greater support to his successor, Air Vice Marshal (AVM) Oladayo Amao, whom he described as a ‘fine senior officer, experienced fighter pilot and innovative leader”, who “will add significant value to what we have been able to do over the past few years”.
He continued, “In line with my mantra, which states that “in the race to add value to our society and secure our communities, there is no finishing line”, I pledge to continue to do my utmost, even in retirement, to ensure the peace and prosperity of a united Nigeria”.
