<p>Jimoh further urged students to avoid social vices such as drug abuse and internet fraud, while promoting patriotism and commitment to national development.</p>
<p>He called on teachers, parents, and stakeholders to work together to strengthen the education system and eliminate malpractice.</p>
<p>Reaffirming his commitment to youth development and national service, Jimoh said his military experience across different countries had deepened his belief in discipline and patriotism.</p>
<p>Earlier, Lt.-Col. Gbenga Adekunle and Maj. Hassan Abdullahi, in separate presentations, encouraged students to embrace honesty, integrity, and patriotism while shunning crime, cultism, and drug abuse.</p>
<p>They explained that such behaviours undermine personal growth and national security.</p>
<p>The officers highlighted career opportunities in the Nigerian Army, including engineering, medical services, logistics, intelligence, and communications.</p>
<p>They noted that the outreach aimed to strengthen civil-military relations and sensitise students on the Army’s role in national defence and development.</p>
<p>The Nigerian Army reaffirmed its commitment to civil-military relations through community engagement, medical outreach, infrastructure support, and disaster response activities nationwide.</p>
<p>In his remarks, the Director of the school, Mr. Tony Emecheta, commended the Army for its dedication to national security, youth development, and mentorship through educational outreach programmes.</p>
<p>He said the engagement demonstrated the Army’s role not only in protecting the country but also in shaping the future of young people through guidance and exposure to military values.</p>
<p>Emecheta added that the programme provided students with direct interaction with officers, helping them learn discipline, leadership, service, and possible career paths in the Armed Forces.</p>
<p>He expressed appreciation to the visiting officers for their sacrifices in maintaining peace and security across the country.</p>
<p>The highlight of the occasion was the presentation of souvenirs and learning materials to the school by the commander of 3 Brigade.</p>
