“As people from the frontline states, we commend the federal government and the security agencies for the tremendous achievements recorded in the states.
“We are optimistic that as active players who played key roles in the relative peace enjoyed in the states, the new service chiefs would add value to bring the insecurity challenge to a total halt.
“They have at different times proved their worth and competence in various national assignments.” Buni stressed.
He added that: “The President made the right choice and we will continue to support all security operations in our domain.
“Malam Nuhu Ribadu is an excellent team player who would work in synergy with the security chiefs to achieve the set goals”

He also commended the Buhari regime for improving on equipment and building a new spirit in the nation’s security personnel to see their assignment as a call to national duty.
“These great efforts boosted the morale of the security forces to fight the insecurity scourge effectively, efficiently and with dexterity” Buni said.
