 The President of the Retired Military Veterans January 1973 intakes of the Nigerian Defense Academy, General Abdul Malik Hadi Dugiwa, has expressed gratitude to President Mohamed Buhari for his timely responses and execution of the right and entitlements as retired military personnel. Hadi Dugiwa spoke during the annual general meeting of NDA73 intakes held on Friday at the Nigerian Armed Forces Resettlement Centre, Oshodi, plus TV Africa's correspondent Destiny Momoa reports. Seeing these retired personnel, one could not help but wonder how they have managed to be integrated into civil life after 35 years of commitment to the military lifestyle. President of the 1973 January intakes of the Nigerian Defense Academy expresses satisfaction to President Mahmoud Buhari as a veteran that did not disappoint his fellow veterans. President, for his approval of our SDA, recently announced and that will be done in two branches. So, there has been argument on whether I should be four branches, but I think we are now talking about put their feet down and say, look, let's have it in two branches. And you know this very President, being a veteran himself has gladly approved which every member, even those in service, are very happy about it. Thank you so much. The veterans, among other things, spoke under 2023 general elections, urging the populace to be intentional in choosing their leaders. So this time around, my own advice is that people should know what they want and vote according to their will. It's all this money buying, you know, give you five talent for stomach infrastructure and then you'll suffer for so many more years. I don't believe in that. I've spoken about it. My name is Fadasi Ndile, I've spoken about it. In international precedence, I've spoken about it. Obama specifically has spoken about it. The British Prime Minister has spoken about it. So what I would say specifically is that, lady, people decide, the election should be without any rank or any hastening, any political turbulence, but it should be free, fair, with equity and justice. Back to 49 rap a day and you will have wasted your votes on somebody who is not suitable to govern you. Let the electorate, let them think real hard, let them think beyond the hardships of today. If you think beyond today's hardship, you vote for the right person that will put you in better state. The advice that Nigeria be placed first above regional and sectional sentiments.
