Surrounded by his staff, the second in command of the GTIA KELETIGUI 1, Colonel Seydou Bassirou Niangado gave the details of the new reorganization of the said GTIA.
It was during a general gathering of the mission held on Monday, April 18, 2022, in the compound of the Colonel Mohamed Ould Issa military camp in Nara.
The objective of this readjustment is to allow the GTIA to comply with the new operating methods of the terrorists who are already in disarray, thus preferring avoidance and the installation of Improvised Explosive Devices to confrontation.
We will pursue the terrorists wherever they are and whatever the cost, because it is a question of saving the fatherland for which no sacrifice is too much, launched the second in command of KELETIGUI 1, before explaining that the S-GTIA which was engaged in an advanced position will be replaced by new blood to achieve the expected results.
The tactical change of this S-GTIA is in no way a reduction in the strength of the mission but rather a reorganization of the device to better fight the enemy, he warned.
We are fighting for our posterity, said the head of mission and added that patriotism is part of the faith and that whoever dies in this war while being a believer is a martyr.
Through this gathering, Colonel Niangado awarded letters of congratulations to the elements who distinguished themselves by their disciplines and their self-sacrifice during their time of engagement in the theater of operation.
A pot was also organized in their honor. According to the head of mission, these acts of reward are intended on the one hand to encourage the elements concerned, to stimulate zeal and on the other hand, to galvanize the others to act in the same direction.
The Colonel took the opportunity to give advice regarding the unhealthy acts of certain elements. At the start of his remarks, the Colonel observed a minute of silence in memory of all the civilian and military victims of this crisis. A pot was also organized in their honor.
