Soldiers participate in a live-fire training exercise
The Nigerian Army has warned the public to avoid its shooting range at Adekunle Fajuyi Cantonment, Ibadan, ahead of the Range Classification Exercise scheduled from Wednesday to Thursday.
Lt.-Col. Jonah Danjuma, the acting Deputy Director, 2 Division Army Public Relations, gave the warning in a statement he signed on Tuesday.
Danjuma noted that the exercise would be held at the Major General O. F. Azinta Shooting Range, Adekunle Fajuyi Cantonment, Ibadan.
He urged members of the public, particularly residents around the cantonment, to stay clear of the designated range area.
“They are equally urged not to panic upon hearing gunshots.
“Additionally, farmers as well as hunters within the vicinity are cautioned to stay off the range area during the exercise.
“They are to note that measures are in place to restrict unwarranted intrusion during the period,” he said. (NAN)
