The Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, has called on the recently promoted military officers to intensify their efforts in combating insecurity in the country.
He told newly-promoted generals that Nigerians are looking up to them to end the insecurity that has plagued certain regions.
Matawalle, in his congratulatory message to them, noted that they have a critical role to play in addressing the prevailing challenges of insecurity.
In a statement on Sunday by the Director of Press, Ministry of Defence, Henshaw Ogubike, the minister told the officers that Nigerians look up to them to rid the country of the ravaging insecurity.
Matawalle, however, reaffirmed President Bola Tinubu’s commitment to equipping the Armed Forces with the necessary resources and support.
He expressed confidence in the capabilities of the newly promoted officers to lead with integrity, courage, and excellence.
