Lt. Col Adegbe appointed ADC to President Goodluck
President Goodluck Jonathan has appointed one of our very own Lt. Colonel Ojogbane Adegbe as his aide-de-camp (ADC). Adegbe graduated from the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA), Kaduna , in September 1995 as a member of the 42 Regular Course. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics and a Masters in Intelligence and International Security from Kings College, London. It’s yet another positive development from a once UK based Igala. We wish Lt. Colonel Ojogbane Adegbe success with his new appointment.
