The All Progressives Congress (APC) today praises the appointment of General Christopher Musa (rtd) as Nigeria's new Defence Minister. This move highlights President Bola Tinubu's strong commitment to addressing the nation's security challenges.
APC Lagos State spokesman, Mr. Seye Oladejo, issued a statement on Friday. He congratulates General Musa on his new role. Oladejo describes the appointment as a decisive step. The Commander-in-Chief aims to end insecurity and restore public confidence.
Moreover Oladejo emphasizes the weighty responsibility ahead. General Musa carries the President's trust. He also meets the expectations of Nigerians who seek victory over ongoing threats.
The spokesman notes that this decision goes beyond routine changes. It serves as a strategic move to strengthen Nigeria's security framework. General Musa's emergence renews the resolve to confront persistent challenges.
Oladejo highlights General Musa's extensive experience. As former Chief of Defence Staff, Musa brings proven skills from complex operations. Nigerians recognize his service and hold high hopes for his leadership.
Furthermore the APC points out the enormous national demands. These require courage and clear vision. General Musa's initial remarks show readiness. His firm and reassuring tone inspires confidence.
Oladejo welcomes Musa's call for unity. Success demands cooperation across agencies, communities, and institutions. National security remains a shared duty for all Nigerians. Nigeria now faces evolved threats like terrorism, banditry, sabotage, and political opportunism. President Tinubu confronts these issues with bold action.
The APC expects Musa to enhance intelligence coordination. He should modernize the armed forces and rebuild public trust. A unified offensive against criminal networks proves essential for stability. Oladejo stresses the need to check saboteurs, terror financiers, and compromised elements. Nigerians deserve robust protection.
The APC reaffirms full support for General Musa. He holds the President's trust and the hopes of millions. General Musa takes the oath on Thursday at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.
