He said, “The commission of the Armed Officers’ Mess is a step in line with this policy. For me, the regimental dinner organised for me to mark this occasion is very significant because it presents me with another opportunity to reflect positively on the past, present, and future of our armed forces.
“Please permit me to appreciate our military for their loyalty, handwork, dedication, and selfless service to our beloved nation. I am fully aware of all your sacrifices and commitments in tackling the myriad of security challenges and your contributions to the successful elections in our country.
“However, until the issue of insecurity is surmounted much more is still desired from the Armed Forces of Nigeria. Consequently, the Armed Forces of Nigeria and other security agencies must always remain resolute in the face of the country’s insecurity challenges.”
“Our administration before winding down will never relent to widen the support of the military to enable them to effectively perform their constitutional responsibilities. The ultimate sacrifice of our fallen heroes will never be in vain and the almighty God continue to grant them eternal rest.”NYSC Portal
