Irabor spoke at the regimental dinner organised for the outgoing president, Major General Mohammadu Buhari (retd), on Tuesday night in Abuja.
The event is part of the activities lined up for the handover ceremony for President-elect, Bola Tinubu.
He, however, pledged the military’s loyalty to the president and constitution as Buhari bows out of office.
He said, “Our determination to uphold democratic growth is rock solid. I assure you that the Armed Forces of Nigeria and other security agencies will consolidate all the successes recorded so far, especially on the ongoing counter-insurgency and anti-banditry operations across the country. We shall continuously and tirelessly strive to secure all that constitute Nigeria’s wealth as our contribution to national development.
” On behalf of officers and personnel of the armed forces, the police, and other security agencies I most sincerely thank the president for gracing this occasion. Your coming has boosted our morale. Consequently, I hereby reaffirmed our loyalty to the president and the constitution of Nigeria as this administration rounds off.”
