Group Laud Tinubu Over Appointment Of Lagbaja
A group, Ilobu-Asake Development Union, Ilobu, Osun State has hailed President Bola Tinubu for appointing Maj. Gen. Taoreed Abiodun Lagbaja as the Chief of Army Staff.
In a release signed by its National President, Pastor Olufemi Salako, the group assured Nigerians that the fight against enemies of Nigeria will be won decisively as a Nigerian Army under General Lagbaja will be ruthless in dealing with them.
“While we believe this is a professional appointment, which was done based on merit, we also wish to appreciate the President for finding General Lagbaja worthy of the honour.
“It’s also worthy of note that General Lagbaja has for decades dedicated his time towards defending the territorial integrity of Nigeria through participation and leading of several operations across the length and breadth of Nigeria and beyond.
“Most recent was his efforts towards restoring peace to Northwestern states of Zamfara, Kaduna, Kebbi and Sokoto during his short spell as General Officer Commanding of 1 Division, Kaduna.
While congratulating Lagbaja, one of their own, they expressed their optimism that the COAS has the capacity to take the battle against enemies of Nigeria to a level that will guarantee security of lives and properties, eliminate division and most importantly, corroborate the vision of President Bola Tinubu on bringing stability into the country.
