In order to promote interagency cooperation and enhance operational readiness among Taraba State’s security forces, the 6 Brigade Nigerian Army/Sector 3 Operation Whirl Stroke (OPWS) held a Joint Route March for its own personnel and other security forces in the Jalingo metropolis on Friday, October 31, 2025.
The Nigerian Police Force, Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC), Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Nigeria Immigration Service, Taraba Marshal, and Nigerian Red Cross Society all actively participated in the exercise.
The route march was intended to encourage inter-national security organizations to practice physical fitness, teamwork, and intercultural understanding.
Brigadier General Kingsley Chidiebere Uwa, the commander of the Nigerian Army/Sector 3 OPWS, stated shortly before the march that the event was one of the numerous training programs the army regularly organizes to ensure officers and soldiers’ physical and mental stamina.
He asserts that today’s route march is not just about fitness. It demonstrates our resolve, strength, and commitment to standing up for our country at all times. It serves as a reminder that our profession still values discipline, teamwork, and perseverance. Let us march with pride, purpose, and mutual respect as we depart, demonstrating to the Taraba and Nigerian public that the security forces are still committed to their work.
The exercise also served as a platform to show how committed all participating organizations are to maintaining peace and security in Taraba State and throughout Nigeria.
Residents who applauded the security personnel’ display of unity and cohesion were drawn to the route march, which covered major Jalingo streets.
