Nigeria is to assist the Democratic Republic of Congo to establish a national fire service.
“The request became necessary due to the capacity of the organisation as the most qualified and second best fire responders in Africa,” he said.
The CG said that the qualification was determined by the capacity of its fire-fighting equipment and the strength of its personnel.
He commended President Muhammadu Buhari for changing the narrative of the fire sector in Nigeria.
Liman further attributed the achievement to the commitment of the president who ensured that all the budgetary allocations had been released in 100 per cent form to the organisation.
The FFS boss called on foreign investors to invest freely in Nigeria due to the capacity of the FFS to contend with any fire outbreak.
Earlier, Emerald Okoro, Comptroller, Nigeria Correctional Service, Taraba Command, commended the CG for his landmark achievement in the FFS.
Mr Okoro assured the CG of the continuous collaboration between the two agencies in the state.
