In a press statement signed by its Chairman, Ahmad Muttaqa and Secretary, Sani Ahmed, the group said the general is a brilliant scholar with enviable records in the military and called on the lawmakers to rise above board to clear him so that he can settle down to tackle security challenges confronting the nation.
The youth explained that they have no doubt that General Minimah has garnered enough skills and experience to tackle the multifaceted security problem confronting our the country.
“We therefore deem it fit and thought it wise to draw the attention of well meaning Nigerians most especially the unprejudiced lawmakers that cut across different religious and ethnic background.
“Sequel to the past antecedent of General K.T Minimah who join the Nigeria Defence Academy’s 25th regular course, a refined and dogged infantry officer who rose through the ranks to become the head of Lagos command, whose excellent performance earned him his immediate past appointment, commander of the Nigerian Army infantry corps Jaji. This availed him added opportunities to meeting sound minded Nigerians including the highest ranking officers of the Nigerian Army”, the statement said. See below for full text of the statement.
