President Bola Tinubu has praised the Nigerian military, saying they put their lives on the line to protect Nigerians.

Speaking during the Nigerian Guild of Editors (NGE) conference in Abuja, on Wednesday, Tinubu raised important questions about the important role they play.

He said that given the risks Nigerian soldiers take to protect the territorial integrity of the country, the military deserves the support and encouragement of all Nigerians.

“Yes, we are challenged by terrorism, banditry, and others. We recognise that.

“Are we doing something about it? Are we inspiring the armed forces? Are we encouraging them to fight?

“They put their lives on the line to defend the sovereignty of this country. It is our responsibility,” he said.
