The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt.- Gen. Faruk Yahaya, says recruitment into the Nigerian Army should not be perceived as employment opportunity but a call to defend Nigeria.
Yahaya said this while flagging off a 10Km endurance run for candidates undergoing screening to qualify for the 84 Regular Recruits Intake at the Nigerian Army Battle Fitness Centre (NABFC), Falgore forest, Kano State.
The Director, Army Public Relations, Brig.-Gen. Onyema Nwachukwu made this known in a statement on Saturday in Abuja.
