By Sumaila Ogbaje
A group, National Equality and Justice Forum, has commended the Armed Forces of Nigeria for its sincere commitment to a peaceful and stable Nigeria.
This is contained in a statement by the President of the Forum, Elder Venatius Obi and Secretary, Mallam Gambo Shema, on Tuesday in Abuja.
The group commended the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), Gen. Christopher Musa, for his openness in addressing national security challenges.
It said his sincerity and openness was inspiring, and would engender more commitment by troops in the fight against insecurity in the country.
The forum also said there has been more cohesion by the military in tackling the challenges since the CDS took over.
“Troops are successfully rescuing kidnapped victims and dealing with unrepentant bandits and terrorists.
“NAF air strikes are obliterating the Islamic State of the West African Province (ISWAP) terrorists and criminals across the country.
“While Operatives of the Nigerian Navy are successfully arresting oil thieves and securing our maritime domain,” it added.
The forum urged Nigerians to continue to support the military to ensure peace and stability in the country.
“Like the CDS said, securing Nigeria is not just for the Armed Forces of Nigeria, but for all citizens.
“The National Equality and Justice Forum will continue to use it’s platform to continue to solicit the support and cooperation of all in ensuring the security challenge is a thing of the past.
“The sacrifices of our troops will never be in vain, we must support and encourage them,” the group added. (NAN) (www.nannews.ng)
