Maj. General LEO Irabor
This man is a known name in the military, mostly as the Theatre Commander of Operation Lafiya Dole tasked with reclaiming the country’s territory from Boko Haram. Lucky Irabor led his men to some major gains in the fight against insurgency in the Northeast. His leadership style has been commended as open as he regularly held press briefings to update the country on the progress of his troops. He has been described by people within and outside the force as a brave, courageous and upright person.
However, in 2017, the Agbor native from Delta State was posted to Field Commander, Multinational Joint Task to coordinate the regional effort to tackle insurgency.
