on track to effectively respond to emerging
challenges associated with protecting the nation's

personnel in Abuja to participate in the monthly
`Route March Exercise.'
He said troops across the country were physically
sound and mentally ready to take on any task
assigned to them.
" The Nigerian Army is back, we are fully back on
track; the previous impression should be erased,
the Nigerian Army is professional.
"We are re-emphasising training which is very
important as we strive to remain professional and
this is in line with my vision to have a
professionally responsive army.
"The key emphasis here is physical fitness, then
mental alertness and spiritual upliftment which are
at the core of our operations across the country
and the world at large,'' he said.
Buratai called on all soldiers and officers to strive
to maintain an optimal level of physical fitness and
mental alertness as the military makes effort to
provide security to troubled parts of the country.
Thee military personnel in the FCT participated in
the exercise that was also held simultaneously in
army formations across the country.
The Abuja exercise kicked off at 6 am. from the
Aguyi Ironsi Cantonment to the Guards Brigade
Polo Club and back to the Cantonment.
