Musa said, “The country is going through a lot. Let us come together to make the country greater and overcome. Also, we must be proud of our country, no matter the challenges. For me, I am never shy to bring out my passport, whatever you have to say, say it. I am proud of my country and I know it will become better. The adversaries know this and that is why they don’t want us to succeed. However, all that is a lie. We put them to shame and succeed.”
Speaking, the DEPOWA President, Oghogho Musa, said the gesture was in tandem with the non-kinetic approach to winning the war against criminalities in the country.
She said, “The social intervention programmes being initiated are geared towards aligning with the non-kinetic campaigns of the Armed Forces of Nigeria. As we are all aware kinetic and non-kinetic campaigns are part and parcel of military strategies used to win the war against terrorism, banditry, and other forms of criminalities bedevilling our nation Nigeria.”
She urged the beneficiaries to ensure they use the skills acquired and starter kits given to them to enable them to become self-reliant, industrious, and above all employers of labour.
