<p>The Army’s new language policy has come into effect.</p>
<p>This is inspite of efforts by the House of Representatives to stop its implementation.</p>
<p>Every soldier is now expected to have basic proficiency in the three major languages which are Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa.</p>

is to promote unity and better interaction with other military and para
military organisations in the country.</p>
