The Nigerian Army says it is having a battle simulation exercise in Abuja on Tuesday (today) and Wednesday.
The Acting Deputy Director of Army Public Relations, Lt. Col. Njideka Agwu, said in a statement on Monday, that the exercise will take place at the 7 Guards Battalion Obstacle Course in Lungi Barracks, Maitama, Abuja.
Agwu said the exercise will involve real-time battlefield simulations.
“Accordingly, there would be large battle sounds that would be heard during the exercise which are in line with the training exercise.
“Consequently, members of the general public who reside around Maitama, Asokoro, AYA, and the environs are not to panic but go about their normal businesses as the battle sounds would not raise any security concern. Furthermore, all necessary safety measures have been put in place”.
