The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja, reaffirmed the Nigerian Army's (NA) commitment to providing comprehensive support for soldiers and their families to effectively navigate marital challenges. He made this statement during the inaugural workshop organized by the Nigerian Army Women Command, focused on "Building a Happy and Peaceful Family for NA Personnel," held at the Army Headquarters Command Officers Mess 1 in Asokoro, Abuja.

Represented by Major General Koko Isoni, Commander of the Army Headquarters Garrison, the COAS highlighted that soldiers with stable and supportive family lives draw additional morale from their secure home fronts, allowing them to concentrate better on their duties. This enhanced focus results in improved performance, quicker decision-making, and ultimately, greater mission success. He emphasized that when soldiers are free from the distractions of relationship crises, the entire NA benefits.


The COAS noted that the well-being of soldiers and their families is central to the NA’s ongoing transformation. He outlined various support systems, including the Affordable Home Ownership Option for All Soldiers (AHOOAS), accessible education for soldiers' children through command schools, the establishment of worship centers, and skills acquisition centers for family members.


In her welcome remarks, Brigadier General Mathias Amatso, Commander of the Nigerian Army Women Command, shared that the workshop was inspired by the COAS's focus on Sound Administration as a key pillar of his command philosophy. He emphasized that it aligns with the tenet of Support for the Homefront. He expressed gratitude for having a COAS who not only cares about the Army’s victories but also prioritizes support for soldiers' families. 


Topics covered in the workshop included "Soldiering and Building a Happy and Peaceful Family through Deliberate Practices," "Balancing Military Service and Parenting," "Honoring Our Values: Addressing Sexual Violence and Abuse," and "Notable Nigerian Army Policies Relating to Family Life."
