The project, it was gathered, was in furtherance of the determination to eliminate the challenge of accommodation insufficiency in the Air Force.
Represented by the Chief of Administration at NAF Headquarters, Air Vice Marshal Mahmoud Ahmed, Abubakar said NAF was particular about solving the accommodation problems of its personnel.
The project, he said, would not only alleviate accommodation shortage for NAF personnel serving in Benin area but also significantly reduce the financial burden of rents faced by NAF in housing its personnel.
Speaking earlier at the occasion, the Commander of 107 AMG, Air Commodore Olarewaju Shobande, expressed gratitude for the project meant at solving accommodation problems in the unit.
