Amosun, who made this disclosure on Thursday, 21 August, 2014, at the
commissioning of the remodelled Oko Barracks Road in Benin, Edo State
said the activities of the dreaded Boko Haram sect has enabled the
Nigerian air force to improve its fighting force and skills
appreciably.
He also stated that Boko Haram insurgency across Nigeria has facilitated the the application of innovative technology on surveillance at designated locations in the country.
“If not for the lives that are really lost due to insurgency, you will see that this insurgency is really out to boost the capabilities of the NAF,” Amosun said.
He also disclosed that insurgency has improved the collaboration among Nigeria’s security agencies, which he said has resulted in reduction of bomb explosions and that it will soon get better.
“As I speak with you now, we have better collaboration and sharing of information. That explains why these bombs that used to explode in major cities and towns have been reduced drastically. Out there in the North-East, it’s going to get better because, we now have common communication,” he said.

Edo State Governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, while making a speech
at the occasion, noted that the federal government was yet to show
enough appreciation to the military for paying the supreme prize for the
unity of the country.
The governor however gave assurance of his administration’s support in the NAF desire to establish a state of the-art secondary school in the state, adding that the road project which was funded by the state government, was in fulfillment of his electoral promise to NAF whose disposition to residents in the state he said has been wonderful.
