The Nigerian Hunters and Forest Security Service (NHFSS) has approved the promotion of two officers who distinguished themselves through their commitment, diligence and patriotism.
The Commander-General, Dr Joshua Osatimehin, announced this at the end of a four-day intensive leadership training workshop, organised by the management of the Service in collaboration with the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), on Monday in Abuja.
Osatimehin said the officers were promoted for their gallant performance in curbing crimes, arrest of criminals and intelligence gathering.
Those promoted are Mmadunaeme David, who was promoted to the position of Commander, Operations and Ofodile Peter, who was elevated to the rank of Deputy Commander.
The Deputy Commander General in charge of Technical Services, Dr John Metchie, congratulated the officers, saying they deserved recognition and promotion for their exceptional exploits.
Metchie commended the CG for the gesture, adding that it would motivate officers and men of the service to put in more effort towards achieving the objectives of NHFSS.
