The Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, in the latest statement, has been full of praise for the newly-promoted military officers from Plateau state.
Lalong’s congratulatory message was made available to the press in a statement signed by Makut Macham, the Director of Press & Public Affairs to the Governor, on Monday in Jos.
The governor said that he was excited over promoting more senior officers in the Nigerian Armed Forces from Plateau State who are among the 235 Generals, Rear Admirals, Air Vice Marshals (AVMs), and others promoted across the Nigerian Army, Navy, and Air Force recently.
Among them are two Major Generals, ES Buba and GM Mutkut; one AVM PD Masiyer; Rear Admiral AD Bingel and others promoted to ranks equivalent of Brigadier Generals.
Gov. Lalong, who described their promotions as the will of God, said the promoted officers also played their roles in making the will of God possible in their lives by serving the nation with diligence, honesty, patriotism and selflessness.
The Governor said he was not surprised by their elevation as they were selected for these well-deserved promotions because they have remained consistent and focused on their call since joining the various services.
“While we relish in this moment of joy, I wish to remind you that this is another responsibility that you must discharge with loyalty and the highest sense of duty.
“It is now time to redouble your efforts to justify this promotion as you serve the nation and support the Chief of Defence Staff and other Service Chiefs to carry out the mandate of defending Nigeria’s territorial integrity and dealing with all threats to national security,” said the governor.
