Army decorates five newly promoted Brigadier Generals, three others in Borno

The Army headquarters Theatre Command Operation Hadin Kai, North-East, has decorated five newly promoted Brigadier Generals and three other paramilitary officers serving under the command.

Speaking during the decorations ceremony at officer’s mess Maimalari, cantonment in Maiduguri on Thursday, the Theatre Commander, Maj.-Gen. Gold Chibuisi, noted that five Colonels were promoted to the ranks of Brigadier Generals, while three others were officers from police, immigration, and Civil Defence Corps who are serving under the Theatre Command.

According to the theatre commander, much is expected of newly promoted generals, as new ranks come with additional responsibilities.

He explained that the newly promoted Brigadier Generals may be posted outside the command by their new ranks while urging them to embody the leadership attributes of senior officers of the Army in the current situation to end insecurity in the country.

“You have now joined the ranks of generals in the army. There are three things a general must exemplify: humility, empathy, and patience to be able to address problems.

“You have performed well enough to be elevated to this rank; when they say army, you don’t need to look around to see who; it is me and you; we are the faces of the army now; we embodied the army; that consciousness must be in you.

“The issue of sacrifice and showing a way, so that we can get a solution and change the situation we have been brought to change,.

“For our colleagues from other services, you have been with us here; you have seen how we work. I’m happy to see that your services have seen your courage in Operation Hadin Kai and have promoted you, so I want you to see yourself as recharged to even do more so that collectively we achieve the mission of the Theatre Command.
