The 2 Brigade, Nigerian Army, will on Saturday hold the West African Social Party (WASA) to foster social interactions among its personnel, families and the civil populace
Lt. Adebowale Adejimi, the Acting Assistant Director, Army Public Relations, 2 Brigade, Nigerian Army, said this in a statement in Uyo on Wednesday.
Adejimi said that the organisation of WASA had always been in line with the traditions, custom and ethics of the army.
He said that the social party had continued to be an annual event of the Nigerian Army since its establishment.
“We use it to create an atmosphere for interaction among personnel, their families and the civil population.
“It provides a medium to promote civil-military cooperation. It also displays the cultural values of ethnic groups in the country,” he said
Adejimi further said that the event would be used to recognise soldiers who had distinguished themselves during the year.(NAN)(
