The Acting Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Major General Taoreed Lagbaja wants troops to back their operations with prayers.
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.
Recall that the NA on Wednesday commenced the commemoration of its 160th year of existence since 1867, when 18 men known as the Glover Hausas of the Royal Navy were organized into a formidable force that it is now.
Gen Lagbaja stated that the Nigerian 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 NA and the Armed Forces of Nigeria with success.
