The Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, Gen. Christopher Musa, has reassured that the military high command would continue to prioritise the welfare of personnel, especially those on the frontline.
Musa said this on Wednesday during a news conference on the unveiling of the “Tribute to Our Troops,” an event being organised to commemorate the 2025 Armed Forces Remembrance Day and Celebration.
He said the leadership of the country and those of the military, appreciate the troops’ sacrifices to keep the country safe and secure.
The CDS, who was represented by the Director of Civil-Military Relations, Defence Headquarters, Anthony Epe, said the event was a testament to the commitment of the military to foster unity, showcase resilience and celebrate the valour of servicemen and women who had dedicated their lives to safeguarding the country.
According to him the third edition of “Tribute to our Troops” is not just an event but a movement that combines the power of music, culture and philanthropy to honour the selfless sacrifices and bravery of the armed men and women of the Armed forces of Nigeria.
He said the event would also offer a unique platform to connect the military with the civilian population, emphasising the importance of mutual understanding and collaboration for the progress of our great nation.
