Tukur Buratai, chief of army
staff, has warned that any act of disloyalty, disobedience to constituted
authority and insubordination by personnel of the Nigerian army would
henceforth be decisively dealt with.
Speaking at the passing out
parade and commissioning for 205 officer cadets of ‘Executive Commission Course
VII’ of Nigerian Army School of Infantry, Buratai said defaulters would be
shown the way out of the army.
“The Nigerian Army is currently
taking stock and undergoing a period of self-appraisal,” he said.
“Therefore, there is zero
tolerance for indiscipline and unprofessional conduct.
“You have all taken your oath of
allegiance to be loyal first to the commander-in-chief of the armed forces,
thereafter to the Nigerian Army and down the line.
“Consequently, I command you to
avail yourself with the approved harmonized terms and conditions of service as
it applies to your commission.
“The Nigerian Army is strictly
guided by this document in its engagements and re-engagement of its personnel.
“I also need to emphasize that as
a professional army, there are established channels of communication with
regards to official matters, correspondences and even expression of grievances.
“You are to be guided by these
channels throughout your career.”
He charged the newly commissioned
cadets to contribute their quota to the army’s efforts at preserving the
national security.
