As the Federal Government battles to tackle emerging and contemporary security challenges confronting the nation, the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Olufemi Oluyede, has charged new recruits of the Depot Nigerian Army, Zaria, Kaduna State, to remain prepared to fight terrorism and insurgency in the country.
General Oluyede, who gave the charge at the Passing Out Parade of the 6,195 of the 88 Regular Recruits Intake on Saturday, emphasized the importance of courage, professionalism, and resilience in the face of adversity.
“Stand by the oath you have taken and do your duty without forgetting our core values of discipline, loyalty, integrity, selfless service, courage, and respect for others. These values will form the compass that will lead you to your finest hours in the face of adversity,” he said.
“I urge you to take a quick, well-deserved break and be ready to receive the next set of recruits, as the process for the 89 Regular Recruits Intake has already reached an advanced stage. I assure you of the Army Headquarters’ support in always realising your training objectives”.
