He stressed the need for a more proactive approach in addressing security challenges.

“Our task is to look for the bad guys and take them down. I have encouraged all our commanders this year that we must make a great difference in all our operations.

“We must step out of the temple, look for the criminals wherever they enter, and go after them.”

On his part, the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt.-Gen. Olufemi Oluyede, reinforced the military’s crucial role in ensuring peace and stability in the country.

He reminded the troops of their oath to serve the nation with loyalty and resolve.

“We must go wherever lawfully sent by land, sea, or air.

“We must remain resolute in our fight against terrorism, insurgency, secessionism, and other threats to our collective peace as Nigerians,” said Oluyede.
