Commander Kenya Air Force (KAF) Major General John Omenda on Wednesday, 29th June 2022 delivered a lecture of opportunity to newly commissioned officers undertaking the Junior Officers’ Course during his visit to the KAF Training Wing (KTW), Moi Air Base.

The Commander KAF advised the Junior Officers against drug and substance abuse and the need to have integrity, transparency as well as sound financial management.

He used the opportunity to underscore the importance of teamwork among the officers.

“If you want to go far in our nature of work, walk as a team. Without teamwork you can’t achieve much,” said Major General Omenda.

Commander KAF then planted a commemorative tree and later addressed the KTW personnel to whom he acknowledged the tremendous work they are doing in equipping personnel with the requisite knowledge in various aspects pertaining to KAF.

“Kenya Air Force Training Wing is a very important formation to KAF and the Kenya Defence Forces at large. All skilled personnel have passed through this formation and I don’t take it for granted,” he said.

Present during the visit were Deputy Commandant KAF Special Courses School (KSCS) Lieutenant Colonel Wilson Yatich (who welcomed the Commander KAF), Commanding Officer KSCS Lieutenant Colonel Jason Nyandege, Officers, Warrant Officers and Senior Non-Commissioned Officers.
