Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has hailed the Nigerian Army for collaborating with his administration to boost security in the state.
He revealed that his 2 previous meetings with the Division of the Nigerian Army in the State have borne amazing fruits as he praised the military for remaining committed to the improvement of Lagos State’s efforts.
Gov. Sanwo-Olu bared his mind as he received the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, who paid a courtesy visit to him in Alausa on Monday.
His words, “I am happy to inform our gallant Chief of Army Staff that your men have demonstrated highest level of commitment to us in Lagos and are giving us great support to enhance security. On multiple occasions, the Army has responded to our distress calls and this is commendable. I want to assure you that we will not take our relationship for granted.”
Buratai also had this to say, “The Nigerian Army is assuring Your Excellency, Gov. Sanwo-Olu, that we are determined to collaborate with you and support your efforts to secure Lagos and defeat all forms of security challenges. I’m using this opportunity to show appreciation to Lagos government for supporting our activities.”
“The celebration of the Army Day is an opportunity for us to celebrate and honour some of our deserving personnel, both living and those that have sacrificed their lives for the unity of our nation. We remember their sacrifices and also pray for the repose of the souls of the deceased. Our hearts are with their families now and always.”
