This was possible because of the right kind of leadership that the Nigerian Air Force and indeed the Armed Forces of Nigeria current have.”  Responding, Air Marshal Amao informed the Ambassador that the NAF, alongside other security agencies in the country, remain committed to providing a peaceful and safe environment for both Nigerians and foreigners to thrive and will not rest until all areas are rid of terrorists and other criminal elements. According to the CAS, “Nigeria remains open to all foreigners who want to come and invest, and they can be rest assured of their safety as we will continue to ensure that our country remains attractive for foreign investors.”
