The Global Peace Movement International UK has commended the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt General Faruk Yahaya, for the professional conduct of officers and men of Nigerian Army.

In a statement Wednesday the Media Officer of GPMI, Augustine Aminu KSM, on behalf of the President General Dr Mike Uyi who lost his sister, over the weekend, Pastor Rose Uyi said the professional conduct of the Nigerian Army under the leadership of Lt. General Farouk Yahaya is imperative and symbolic for other African countries to emulate.

Uyi, thus, hailed the sterling leadership of Gen. Farouk which according to him filled the leadership vacuum over the years to prosecute the war against terrorism. He equally commended the reorganisation in the army under the COAS.

He said he has observed and noted the high level of professional style and approach displayed by officers and men of the Nigerian Army despite challenges of obvious provocation since Faruk took over as COAS.

“There is no gainsaying the fact that the effective leadership of the military authorities has direct bearing in boasting the morale of the troops as well as their successful endeavour in routing the insurgents”.

“We believes that the military under General Farouk is capable of ending the over 10 year-old insurgency and other forms of insecurity and ensure the permanent return of normalcy in the country,”

“Nigeria, taunted as the giant of Africa, in terms of population, geography, human and mineral resources should lead this aggressive revolution of ending all forms of insecurity for freedom and liberation of its citizens,” he said

In the statement, he gave kudos to the Inspector General of Police Usman Baba Alkali, over the recent re-organisation in the Nigeria Police Force, describing the measure as a step in the right direction.

According to Uyi, “The steps so far taken by the IGP to re-organise the security architecture of the country, we are confident that the present security challenges will soon be a thing of the past,”

He assured the COAS that GPMI as a family are behind him in the quest to wipe out Boko Haram, Banditry among other criminal elements disturbing the peace of the country.
