The ceremony, which took place on Friday, was organised by the 1 Division Nigerian Army.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the project was funded by the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Waidi Shuaibu, in line with his command philosophy and the “Soldier First Culture.”
The command philosophy prioritises the welfare of personnel as a key factor for operational efficiency.
The GOC 1 Division and Commander, Sector 1, Operation Fansan Yamma, Maj.-Gen. Abubakar Wase was represented at the event by the Commanding Officer, Administration Battalion, 1 Division Garrison, Lt.-Col. R.O. Ejoor.
Addressing the beneficiaries, Wase stressed the need for soldiers to maintain a strong maintenance culture to preserve the newly constructed facility.
He warned personnel against illegal electricity connections or any activity that could damage the state-of-the-art accommodation, stressing that defaulters would be sanctioned.
Wase, while expressing appreciation to the COAS for funding the project, said such infrastructural development was critical to sustaining the fighting efficiency and psychological readiness of troops deployed to various theatres of operation across the country.
NAN reports that the event concluded with the formal presentation of keys to the soldiers, marking their official transition into the new accommodation.
