The Nigerian Army has renamed the Ikeja cantonment after the late Chief of Army Staff (CAOS), Taoreed Lagbaja.
The renaming ceremony followed facility upgrades at the cantonment, which included an engraved picture of Lagbaja made with over 4,000 nails in front of the refurbished main gate to the cantonment, digital boards, and a remodelled accommodation for commander 9 brigade.
Papers News reports that the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, while speaking at the renaming ceremony on Friday, said it is not just a title but represents respect, gratitude and recognition of Lagbaja’s courage and service to Nigeria.
