Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 44740, member: 636"] The Nigerian Army just finished training 197 soldiers for peacekeeping work in Gambia. These troops spent five weeks learning special skills at a military center in Kaduna State. The graduation happened on Friday at the Martin Luther Agwai International Leadership and Peacekeeping Centre. The soldiers will join other African forces working to keep peace in Gambia. This group is called Nigerian Contingent 10. Major General Ishaya Maina spoke to the new peacekeepers during the ceremony. He told them they represent Nigeria and must act like professionals at all times. The general warned the soldiers about bad behavior during their mission. He said the army will punish anyone who acts wrongly or hurts innocent people. Sexual crimes will not be accepted under any conditions. The training covered many important military skills. Soldiers learned how to handle explosive devices and operate drones. They practiced driving in convoys and protecting important people. The troops also studied medical rescue methods and camp management. Major General Ademola Adedoja ran the training program and said it met United Nations standards. The soldiers arrived in mid-May and had medical checkups before training started. Military leaders from different agencies attended the graduation ceremony. Nigeria keeps sending peacekeepers to help African countries stay stable. The army chief has supported these missions with money and equipment. These trained soldiers will continue Nigeria's tradition of helping maintain peace across Africa. [/QUOTE]
