Jonathan tasks Service Chiefs in Yola " Work Together or Get Fired"

President Goodluck Jonathan has warned that he would no longer tolerate unhealthy competition or rivalry, especially amongst the service chiefs, stating that this had caused lapses which gave way to insurgents' attacks.

Jonathan read the riot act yesterday while commissioning the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Comprehensive School in Yola, the Adamawa State capital.

He directed the armed forces to, as a matter of compulsion, work in harmony or face the consequences of their inability to cooperate.
He said: “I urge you to cooperate, but sometimes you hear of unhealthy rivalry amongst service chiefs and personnel. This will no longer be tolerated, as any unnecessary competition that will not bring progression to this country, so I charge you to work together.

“If this country is to move forward, the defence industry is key. With the resources we have in the armed forces, we must encourage them to go further in terms of scientific and technological innovation. We cannot move with other developed countries of the world if we do not venture into innovation and creativity in science and technology.

“We will work with our traditional rulers, governors and senate to see that we elevate the country to a different level.”
