It
is with utmost humility and gratitude to the Almighty that I send this
goodwill message to officers, soldiers and indeed the Nigerian Army
family on the Christmas and New Year Celebrations. Let me use this
opportunity to commend the efforts and sacrifices of our gallant
officers and men currently engaged in the counter insurgency operations
in the North East and other operations across the country and abroad. I
congratulate you for your bravery, doggedness and loyalty in these
endeavours. I want to urge you all to maintain the momentum and remain
steadfast as we continue to professionally and responsively carryout our
constitutional roles. On my part, I would continue to ensure that
troops’ welfare and that of their families, remains my utmost priority.
Let
me reassure you of the Federal Government’s commitment to providing the
Nigerian Army with the requisite support for us to perform our duties.
The President, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, President
Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR has pledged his total support to the Armed Forces
to bring all ongoing operations to an end in favour of our dear
country.
This festive season heralds peace as well as a time for
merriment, sober reflection and introspection. I enjoin us all to
continue to pray to the Almighty God for the repose of the souls of our
fallen comrades and the wellbeing of the families of our brave fallen
heroes. I thank you all for the good job you have done in 2016 and look
forward to us making greater progress in 2017.
I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
