 The President of the Retired Military Veterans January 1973 intakes of the Nigerian Defence Academy General Abdumalik Hadidu Ghiwa retired, has expressed gratitude to President Muhammad Buhari for his timely responses and execution of the rights and entitlements of retired military personnel. Hadidu Ghiwa spoke during the annual general meeting of NDA73 intakes held on Friday Nigerian Armed Forces Resettlement Centre Oshodi, plus TV Africa correspondent Destiny Momo 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 Defence Academy expresses satisfaction to President Muhammad 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 we are talking about put their feet down and say look let's have it into one and you know this very president being a veteran himself has gladly approved which I remember even those in service are very happy about so we thank him so much. The veterans among other things spoke under 2023 general elections urgent populist 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 not 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. Eminem Fadas in Deloitte has 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 will 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 fear 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 don't think beyond the hardships of today if you think beyond today's hardship you vote for the right person that we put you in better state. The advice that Nigeria be placed first above regional and sectional sentiments. That's the normal plus TV news.
