The President of AISSON, Dr. Ona Ekhomu, who conferred the award, commended AVM Alao for his role in assisting the force in fighting against terrorism, insurgency and militancy in Nigeria.
Ekhomu also commended the Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshall Sadique Abubakar and other top Commanders of NAF for dominating the battle space in the fight against insurgency in Nigeria.
“Through your special forces, you are also now enabled to engage hostiles on ground. NAF is now a truly modern force with legendary capabilities and superlative performance”, he said.
