Buhari says NDA attack will not dampen armed forces morale

President Muhammadu Buhari has said the attack launched on the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) on Tuesday will not dampen the morale of the armed forces.

On the contrary, he said, it will boost their determination to make a decisive end of criminality in the country.

Buhari said the attack coincided with a time that the military had put insurgents, bandits, kidnappers, and other types of criminals on the retreat.

He said the attack would accelerate the total uprooting of evil in the polity.

He said members of the armed forces are solidly resolved to accomplish the goal in the shortest possible time.
