Army Chief Demands Spiritual Efforts to Compliment Military Operations

The Chief of Army Staff Major General Taoreed Lagbaja has enjoined troops of the Nigerian Army (NA) to compliment their military effort with prayers for the success of the Army in its operational engagements.

The Army Chief made the clarion call at the Interdenominational Church Service marking the Nigerian Army Day Celebration (NADCEL) 2023 on Sunday at the Mogadishu Military Cantonment, Abuja.

You will recall that the NIgerian Army had on Wednesday commenced the commemoration of its 160th year of existence since 1867.

Gen Lagbaja stated that the Army remains the pride of the nation and a force to reckon with in Africa and globally.

He urged all NA personnel to reflect on the security challenges and include them in their prayers, believing that God Almighty will crown the efforts of the Armed Forces of Nigeria with success.

He further charged all personnel to continue to do their best to reciprocate the government’s gesture by remaining loyal, disciplined, patriotic and undaunting, as they combat security challenges in the various theatres of operations.

He pledged more commitment to troops’ welfare and wellbeing under his command.
