Army to build command guest houses in more states – COAS

The Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Faruk Yahaya, on Thursday, said the Nigerian Army has concluded plans to build Command Guest Houses in more states across the country.

Yahaya said this at the maiden Annual Command Guest House Stakeholders Conference 2022, organised by the Department of Special Services and Programmes on Thursday in Abuja.

The COAS said the desire to establish the guest houses was borne out of the need to provide secured, affordable and reliable accommodation as part of efforts to cater for the welfare needs of army personnel, members of the armed forces and the general public across Nigeria.

Yahaya said the need to properly coordinate and manage all army welfare investments was critical to their sustainability and maintenance.
