He added that the appointment of the new service chiefs boosted the morale of the rank and file of the Nigerian military.
The party further said that "The stepped-up fight against Boko Haram has convinced Nigerians that, indeed, their military is getting its groove back, and can beat the three-month deadline set by President Muhammadu Buhari for Boko Haram to be defeated."

“Watching the video clip of Nigerian Air Force jets pounding targets in Sambisa Forest, which is the fortress of the insurgents, over the weekend, arouses great pride in the military,” it said.
