Media Chief Seeks Recognition For Outstanding Military Officers

A media practitioner and publisher of News Headquarter has called for the recognition of military officers who distinguished themselves in the course of their service to the nation.

According to him, giving them due recognition will spur them to do more which will in turn make the insecurity challenges the nation is facing at the moment a thing of the past.

The publisher of the news platform Gena Lubem, named the Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, Leo Irabor as Man of the Year 2022.

The award was conferred on the CDS, General Leo Irabor, by the media platform. Lubem said the award is in recognition of Irabor’s “track record of selfless service, professionalism and  undiluted transparency introduced into the dynamic nature of making our dear country safer and much more habitable by the citizens and other categories of residents.”

He added that “the CDS has restored discipline amongst the officers and staff.

“He equally moved a step further by confronting the Boko Haram terrorists, IPOB, bandits, insurgents and other criminals that constituted a wedge to the overall growth of the country as was contemplated by His Excellency President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR and Commander-In-Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces.

“We wish to thank him immensely for coordinating and sustaining all the actions, programmes, efforts and special projects that have accounted for the liberation of communities and return of peace across Nigeria.

“We are optimistic that by injecting hard work, perseverance, renewed commitment and effective deployment of material and human resources, to carry out his assigned responsibilities, he has equally indelibly placed your precious name on the sands of time in service to nation and mankind.”

The organiser added that the award will be bestowed on the CDS on 12th January, 2023.
