By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

Col. Boubaca Toure is now the Force Commander of ECOMIG as he succeeds former Col. OA Kane in a colorful Change of Command parade held at the Forecourt of the Force Headquarters at Bakau on Wednesday 10 January 2024.

The parade symbolized the end of Col OA Kane’s tenure as FC and the beginning of Col Boubacar Toure’s era as FC ECOMIG.

In a statement made available to Daybreak in Abuja, the parade is a ceremonial event where Col OA Kane bids farewell to troops and personnel as well as Gambia after a one-year tour of duty in ECOMIG.

Head of Mission commended Col OA Kane for his selfless and dedicated service to ECOMIG, The Gambia and ECOWAS.

She appreciated his efforts for consolidating on the gains made by the Mission and wished him well in his career and future endeavors. Equally, she welcomed Col B Toure to the mission and noted that much is expected from him, among others.
