President Muhammadu Buhari has urged the military and other
security agencies to remain resolute in tackling the security challenges
bedevilling the country.
Buhari spoke on Tuesday night in Abuja at the regimental
dinner organised in his honour.
While acknowledging the efforts of the military in the war
against terrorism, banditry, and oil theft, Buhari said the armed forces must
not rest on their oars until insecurity is defeated.
He said the regimental dinner is very significant because it
presents him with another opportunity to reflect positively on the past,
present, and future of the armed forces.
“Please permit me to
appreciate our military for their loyalty, handwork, dedication, and selfless
service to our beloved nation,” Buhari said.
“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.”
