The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Wahid Shaibu, has charged troops of the 3 Division, Nigerian Army, to sustain discipline, professionalism, and commitment as they work to restore and maintain peace across Plateau State.
Shaibu delivered the charge during an operational visit to the Division\u2019s headquarters in Jos, where he held a strategic meeting with senior officers, commissioned renovated accommodation and office facilities, and addressed soldiers at the parade ground.
Describing the military\u2019s role in Plateau as \u201ccritical,\u201d the Army Chief noted that the state\u2019s unique security challenges required a disciplined and coordinated approach.
\u201cYour job here is very critical to ensure that we have peace and stability on the Plateau,\u201d he said. \u201cYou must remain disciplined and committed to the cause.\u201d
He assured personnel that measures were being taken to address operational needs and welfare concerns.
\u201cI\u2019ve been duly briefed by the General Officer Commanding 3 Division, and most of the challenges we\u2019ve heard will be addressed. Your welfare is a top priority, and we will continue to provide the enabling environment for you to perform your duties properly,\u201d Shaibu stated.
Highlighting the military as a structured institution built on hierarchy and mentorship, he urged young soldiers to learn from their superiors and respect the chain of command.
\u201cThe army is a structured organization, and it\u2019s a voluntary job you\u2019ve joined to serve your fatherland,\u201d he said. \u201cAs young men who have joined this noble cause, you must listen to those before you. Your superiors will guide you to ensure you have a fulfilling career.\u201d
Shaibu also emphasized the importance of discipline and physical fitness in military service, noting that troops must remain mentally alert and physically prepared.
\u201cDiscipline is the bedrock of this profession,\u201d he stressed. \u201cOnce you\u2019re unclear about anything, seek clarification. Senior NCOs must provide that middle-level leadership for the young soldiers.\u201d
Commending troops deployed in Operation Ensuring Peace, the Army Chief insisted that the nation recognizes their sacrifices.
\u201cThe problem here on the Plateau is unique, and Operation Ensuring Peace is here to address it,\u201d he said. \u201cYour nation appreciates you\u2026 be proud of what you\u2019re doing, stand tall, and carry out your duties properly.\u201d<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
