The Nigerian Defence Academy has warned residents of Afaka, Kauya, and Mando in Kaduna state to avoid its open range area during an upcoming shooting exercise.

The Academy’s Public Relations Officer, Maj. Muhammad Maidawa stated this in a statement on Tuesday in Kaduna.

The Exercise which was scheduled to take place from February 26th to March 1st was part of the advanced application of fire package for the Army Cadets of the 72 Regular Course.

Madawa stressed that the exercise will involve live firing of arms, which is essential for the training and development of the cadets.

He also emphasized the need for safety precautions involving placing barriers and warning signs around the range areas, indicating restricted zones.

“Residents, particularly farmers, pedestrians, and cattle rearers are urged to strictly adhere to these warnings and steer clear of the area during the duration of the exercise. Madawa said.

Moreso, the NDA has assured the citizens in the surrounding communities of their safety, calling for cooperation and collaboration from community members.

In his words, “The NDA has assured that the safety and well-being of all the citizens in the surrounding communities are a top priority and has called for cooperation and collaboration from the community members”.

“By steering clear of the designated area, the residents can help ensure their safety and the effective training of military personnel, “Maidawa said.

He added that the warning came as a necessary precaution to prevent any potential harm to civilians and to ensure the success of the training exercise.
