Protocol

My Gallant Officers, Brave Soldiers, and Defenders of Our Great

Nation,

HOW IS THE MORALE?

ARE WE GOOD TO GO?

ARE WE MOTIVATED?

I stand before you today not just as your President and

Commander-in-Chief, but as a fellow patriot, deeply humbled by

your courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to the peace,

security, and sovereignty of our great nation.

You are the shield of Nigeria, the brave sons and daughters who

stand between our people and the forces of terror. Every inch of

ground you hold, every terrorist you neutralize, and every

community you secure is a victory for justice, freedom, and the

future of our children.

The fight you are waging here in Katsina and across the

country is not just a battle for territory; it is a battle for the

soul of Nigeria. Your resilience in the face of danger inspires the

entire nation. Your sacrifices do not go unnoticed.

You have left behind your families and the comforts of civilian life

to wear the uniform of honour and duty. You face danger not for

wealth or recognition, but for the love of our dear country. That,

my brothers and sisters in uniform, is the highest form of

patriotism. You are the silent guardians of our democracy, and I

salute you.

Let me be clear: the Federal Government stands firmly behind you.

As your Commander-in-Chief, I am fully aware of the challenges

you face. We are taking bold steps to equip you with advanced

equipment, superior intelligence, and robust logistical support not

only to defend this nation but to dominate and defeat every

adversary.

But it is not just about weapons. Your welfare is my top priority.

We are committed to ensuring your families are safe, your

allowances are paid promptly, your healthcare is guaranteed, and

your dignity upheld. Housing programs, family support systems,

insurance coverage, and improved remuneration are being

implemented without delay.

My dear soldiers, this is a defining moment in our history. The

threats of terrorism, banditry, and insurgency have persisted for

too long. Nigerians are counting on us and on you to end this

menace and reclaim every inch of our territory.

Let me hear you loudly: Are you ready? Are you committed to

ending this insecurity once and for all?

Let your resolve echo through every valley and forest. Let the

enemies of Nigeria know—their time is up.

This war will not be won by weapons alone but by your will to

stand, resist, fight, and triumph. As your President, I will match

your courage with action, investment, and unwavering support.

To those who seek to destabilize our nation be they domestic

collaborators or foreign agents—hear this: Nigeria will not bow.

Not to fear. Not to terror. Not to treachery.

You, the Nigerian military, are the spearhead of this fight. With

your valour and discipline, peace shall prevail. Stand tall. Be

proud. Nigeria depends on you, and I am with you—today,

tomorrow, and always.

Stay strong. Stay focused. For God and country.

May God bless you.
 May God bless the Armed Forces of the

Federal Republic of Nigeria.
 May God bless the Federal Republic

of Nigeria.

Long live the Armed Forces!
 Long live the Federal Republic of

Nigeria!
 Thank you.
