In a statement issued by the Chairman A.A.

Represented by the Co-ordinator, Zamfara West Senatorial District Zonal Office, Talata Mafara, Alhaji Sha’ayau Yusuf, reminded the graduating Soldiers of the herculean task awaiting them in the field taking into account the security challenges bedevilling the Country.

Senator Yari explained that idleness amongst the youth has been his source of worry and that’s what prompted him to provide grounds that would eventually bail them out of it at whatever cost.

Yari admonished the 74 Recruits of Zamfara West Senatorial District extraction to regard their enlistment into the Nigerian Army as a call to national duty, adding that they should endeavour to exhibit a high sense of patriotism and bravery throughout their assignments.
