As a way of fostering good living conditions for personnel after retirement, the Nigerian Army has embarked on a Veteran Affairs Pre-retirement Training and Business Development seminar for both veterans and personnel nearing retirement.
The one week-long training, with the theme: ‘Leveraging Business Development Strategies for Effective Empowerment of Service Personnel and Veterans in Post-retirement Life,” held in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, is the second in series this year.
Declaring the session opened yesterday, the Chief of Army Staff, Lt-Gen Olufemi Oluyede, stated that the training continues to build on previous seminars and its contribution of Nigerian Army personnel and veterans in the pursuit of National Security while promoting their overall wellbeing in all aspects.
