I want to publicly acknowledge and thank the officers and men of the Nigerian Army for the great work they are doing for our country, for the great work they are doing to keep the security and the sanctity of our nation, the great work they are doing with other security operators in Lagos State in particular. I do not have a better opportunity than now to thank each and every one of you. But today until we work together and our ministry will come and identify what kind of empowerment, what kind of skills can we come and bring to you that can help you, that can ensure that you can also be a source of support to your spouse, your husband while they're serving the nation. We'll also come around and see if there's any support we can give to your school in terms of infrastructure or in terms of internet facility or in terms of computers just so that we can help you know the children that are going to the schools in these barracks and they can turn to become great citizens tomorrow. Garrison commander Lieutenant Colonel Tahir Abdala who was overjoyed at the turn of event congratulated the troops for the end of a successful training in 2021.

As you know, Nigerian Army is deployed in various theaters of operation across the country and we have had tremendous successes. We are indeed grateful your excellency. Let me also thank the chief of army staff Lieutenant General Farouk Yahya, the general officer commanding a 21 division Major General L.A.
