The COAS later paid a courtesy visit to the Governor of Sokoto state Dr Hammad Aliyu at the Sokoto state Government House, where he divulged that he was in the state to motivate and enhance troops' resoluteness in the ongoing fight against terrorists and bandits to restore peace and socio economic development in the state and the North West of the country. Gen Lagbaja expressed gratitude to the State Government for its support to the troops.

He added, that the luncheon came barely two weeks after the gallant troops rescued over 60 persons from terrorists' enclave. He urged the troops to remain steadfast in securing the state and the nation in general.

Highlights of the event were the commissioning of a Multipurpose Hall in Giginya Barracks by the COAS, dishing of food by the COAS to wounded in action soldiers and performance by cultural troupes.
