He said the event presents a unique opportunity for Nigeria’s armed forces to showcase their skills, foster camaraderie amongst participants and strengthen military cooperation and partnership across the continent.

Musa said “the hosting of the African military games in Abuja is not only a testament to Nigeria’s commitment to promoting peace and security in the region, but also an opportunity to demonstrate our capabilities as a host nation.

“The games will provide a platform for our armed forces to compete at an international level, exchange best practices with their counterparts from other African countries, and build lasting relationships that will contribute to the overall security and stability of the continent,”.

The Defence Chief declared that preparation for the games, including ensuring the necessary infrastructure and logistics support were in place to host the prestigious event.

“I’m confident that our armed forces will rise to the occasion and make the nation proud with their performance on and off the field”.

General Musa said the hosting of the continent will bring significant benefits to the Federal Capital Territory and the nation at large, including economic and sports development, global recognition, and national pride.

He therefore called on Nigerians to come out en masse to support the teams. “Let us show the hospitality that is known of Nigerians and Nigeria.I therefore urge citizens and friends to come out en masse and show their support for Armed Forces as they prepare to compete in the African Military Games. Let us together, as a nation, celebrate the spirit of sportsmanship, camaraderie, and unity that this event embodies.
