The Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has called on Nigerians to unite and fight against the common enemies of the nation.
The CDS, who made the call in his Christmas and New Year message, urged Nigerians to support the military in defending the nation’s territorial integrity and make it safe for all to live in.
Gen. Musa, in a statement signed by Acting Director, Defence Information, Brigadier General Tukur Gusau, said: “As we join the global celebration of Christmas and New Year, I express sincere gratitude to the Armed Forces of Nigeria (AFN) and Nigerians for their unwavering commitment. May the festive spirit bind us as one, and the warmth of shared destiny resonate beyond this season.
“My fervent prayer is that, as we revel, we align with Christ’s teachings of peace, love, and harmony. Acknowledging the sacrifices of our uniformed heroes defending our nation, let us face challenges with unity and courage. Your bravery will not go unnoticed, and we commit to continuous support.
“Seizing this moment, I call on Nigerians to unite against common enemies. Support our motivated AFN, steadfast in defending our nation’s integrity.
As we bid farewell to the year, look to the new year with renewed hope. Stay vigilant and resolute in protecting our nation. With the commitment of all Nigerians, we will secure our dear nation.”
