 The Chief of Army Staff Lieutenant-General Ibrahim Atahiru has warned officers and men of the Nigerian Army to desist from any form of politics and avoid being used by politicians to achieve their personal interests. The Chief of Army Staff disclosed this at the Gibson Jalo Contilment in Yola during this year's Inter Brigade Corporal below competition. Our correspondent reports. It is no doubt that the security situation in the northeastern part of Nigeria, but particularly in Adamawa states, is gradually reducing. Hence, this competition, which is meant to send signals to Boko Haram and other criminal outfits that the Nigerian Army is on top of their game. Represented by the general officer commanding three-division Nigerian Army, Brigadier-General Bello Mohammed says the competition is pertinent within the troops as it will go a long way in boosting the morale of the officers and men. Brigadier-General Mohammed says there is no gain saying that the competition develops the resilience required to win battles, hence the activity that is repositioned to professionally defeat all adversaries in a joint environment. It is the duty of all officers and men to be absolutely loyal to constituted authority at all times. Therefore, I urge you to remain focused, professional and political in the discharge of your duties. Therefore, you must resist by all means be called by some unpatriotic Nigerians for military intervention of the current political dispensation. One of the participants thanked the Chief of Army staff for organising the event as it will help the troops to share ideas through sports. She, however, appealed to the Chief of Army staff not to relent in bringing the troops together, not only through sports but with other activities.
