“Personally the dinner night gives me a great opportunity to offer some useful advice to the graduating cadet who will soon be commissioned into the Nigerian Armed Forces.

To you the graduating cadet, I congratulate you for surmounting all the obstacles successfully. As you await your commission which will all usher you into the noble carrier you have chosen, I urge you to bear in mind that you have been trained and equipped with the capacity to professionally discharge your enshrined duty constitutionally,” he advised.

According to him, the curriculum of the cadets has been strengthened to meet the current security challenges facing the country.

Responding, the academy senior under an officer of the passing out Cadet, CS Nnamdi, thanked all that contributed to the successful completion of their course.
