The new Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Defence, Gabriel Aduda, has pledged to improve on the performance of his predecessor, Ibrahim Kana, to move the ministry forward.

This is contained in a statement by Asonye Daberechi, for the Director of Information and Public Relations of the ministry, Henshaw Ogubike, and made available to journalists on Friday.
Mr Aduda said that the defence ministry was like home-coming for him, because he is a product of a military family with good knowledge of military veterans.
