In the life of a nation, any nation, just as it is in the life of a couy, there comes a time for stock taking or self introspection. It is the time that the nation counts her blessings and interrogates the challenges and prospects with a view of knowing how it has fared thus far. In doing this, the nation, of necessity, must identify institutions, whether government or private and also individuals who have contributed immensely to the overall development of the nation. For Nigeria, the story cannot be different. Destiny and Providence have combined to make President Bola Ahmed Tinubu the President and Commander in Chief of the Armed and even unarmed forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Providence and sheer destiny , coupled with hard work and hard headed strategic implementation and perseverance gave Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu the most coveted job and the number one Citizen of the most populous black nation in the world. In the same vain, God , mercifully gave President Tinubu the wisdom and the discerning mind to appoint General Christopher Gwabin Musa, the Chief of Defence Staff of the Nigerian Army. General Chris Musa, a thorough bred soldier and consummate Patriot is a God’s gift to Nigeria in particular and the world in general. To those who know him, Musa is reputed to be a man with the milk of human kindness. More than this he is said to be a devout Christian with genuine fear of Almighty God. Many people who have had one thing or the other to do with him described him as a no nonsense soldier with zero tolerance for indiscipline, corruption and sloveness. He is reputed to be a sticker for transparency, probity and accountability. He is, in short a moral compass.
This is why we, the creme de la creme of the media have decided to beam our searchlight on this fine Officer gentle man and an illustrious Sin of Nigeria and indeed Africa
This is why the creme de la creme of the media have decided to beam our searchlight on this fine Officer gentle man and an illustrious son of Nigeria and indeed Africa.
Chris Musa Chief of Defence Staff came prepared. He was a round peg in a round hole. He knows his job and he is a soldier,’ s soldier. He knows soldiering and he is a professional to the core. Coming to office at this point of our national life is a blessing. It is a miracle and salute to good judgement for Muss’s emergence as the CDS. As the Chief of Defence Staff, Chris Musa has told the soldiers that they must be ready to defend and protect democracy and democratic rule. He said soldiers must not venture into the political arena as it is not their duty. He , as the Chairman of the West Africa Joint Chief of Defence Staff has also enjoined his colleagues to support democracy in their respective countries. Musa, in one of his frank media chats told those fomenting troubles and instigating soldiers to desist from doing so adding that the military has no business being in politics. But for General Chris Musa Chief of Defence Staff, the enemies of the nation could have succeeded in fanning the embers of disunity among the Army but they have failed woefully.He has not relented in his oars . He is a very loyal officer and his loyalty to Nigeria and the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is total. For this, the creme de la creme of the media say, CGM, thank you. May God continue to guide you. Sir, a grateful nation say thank you
