President Bola Tinubu has received praise from the North-East Peace Advocacy for his efforts to combat crime and maintain peace throughout the country.

The organization also praised the selection of Major General Christopher Musa as the new Chief of Defence Staff, succeeding Gen. Lucky Irabor.

Gen. Musa was chosen by the President to become the next CDS on Monday.

The advocacy organization applauded Tinubu for the appointment in a statement on Monday that was signed by its convener, Bukar Adamu, and stated that “it is an indication of the administration’s willingness to decisively deal with all forms of criminality in the country.”

During Gen. Musa’s time as Force Commander, Operation HADIN KAI, it was added, the region’s calm was restored, and individuals who had been displaced were able to go home.

“The North-East Peace Advocacy Group, therefore, commends President Bola Tinubu for this worthy appointment. We are elated by the elevation of Maj. Gen. C. G. Musa to the highly coveted Chief of Defence Staff seat. It is a position that caps all his excellent performance in the various offices he has held in the service to his fatherland.

“During his tenure in the North-East, our people had cause to smile as they witnessed the return to their various means of livelihood. People who were displaced started returning home.

“During his tenure also witnessed the massive surrender of terrorists who could no longer bear the intensity of military operations,” it
remarked.
