Dr. Adamu Muhammad, leading the group, urged the Chief of Army Staff to maintain the pressure on criminal groups in the country, emphasizing that peace, unity, and development can only thrive in an environment devoid of insecurity.

The coalition highlighted the enhancement of the welfare of troops and their families through various welfare initiatives as among the milestones achieved since General Lagbaja assumed the role of Chief of Army Staff (COS).

They stated: “Under the leadership of the current Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja, the criminal activities of the notorious Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Eastern Security Network (ESN) in the southeast have been effectively curtailed.”

“The sit-at-home order issued by the proscribed group has been disrupted through the intensified operations of Operation Udoka, in collaboration with other stakeholders in the region. This has revived economic activities and restored normalcy in the region.”

“Soldiers have intensified their efforts against the insurgent groups Boko Haram/ISWAP, resulting in the elimination of several high-ranking members, destruction of camps, and the apprehension of numerous group members in the regions.”

“The clashes between herders and farmers in the North Central states of Benue, Nassarawa, and Plateau have significantly decreased due to the military’s actions.”

The CSOs expressed their unwavering support for Lagbaja, describing him as an exceptionally skilled and resolute soldier. They lauded his initiatives and restructuring of the military and called upon Nigerians to stand behind Chief of Army Staff General Lagbaja in his determination to eradicate criminality in the country, asserting that the end of such activities is within reach.
