‌Tukur Muntari, Kano

The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, has charged new recruits to be ready to defend the country against external aggression and other security threats.


He gave the charge during the final screening for 80 regular recruits held at Falgore forest in Tudun Wada Local Government Area of Kano State.

He also charged the recruits to be prepared for a move to Sambisa Forest, a stronghold of the Boko Haram terrorist sect in Borno State.

He said those who are not disciplined and loyal to the cause are free to find their own way.


“You must make up your mind that you are ready to serve your country as a soldier and you should be ready,” he said.

“All of you will go to Sambisa at the end of your depot training. If you are not ready to move to Sambisa and other parts of the country, and of course, our border areas to defend our country from any act of aggression, then you have not started.



“It is not yet late, if you have any doubt, then you can stand up and go. There is no room for laziness and indiscipline in the Army and no room for malingering.”

Burutai said that henceforth, the recruitment and selection would be conducted in Falgore Forest, pointing out that all recruits would be subjected to a similar process.

“This is where we will select those that will become cadets and be trained as officers as well because, at the end of all the training, the officers and soldiers will operate together under the same condition,” he said.

Buratai should be at the forefront leading the war. He should lead the recruits to Sambisa forest.

He is a General...Abi na ceremonial General him be?

Shouldn't he be leading them there?

While Burutai enjoys with cows and pythons in Abuja.

Why new recruits?


Is the man okay?


What happened to having experienced soldiers on the battle front!!!? Now he wants to send in inexperienced recruits to learn on the job.

y recuit dey dnt have experience this man self, if u join millitary @ this time on ur own

It appears the experienced and battle-tested soldiers are buying their way out of Sambisa forest in droves. Anyways, RIP in advance to those raw recruits who will be sacrificed in Sambisa forest.

Why would any sane person join the army so that they can be shipped to their deaths while oga's children get desk jobs and easy promotions. Any one going there to fight is going on a fool's errand.
