The unceremonious welcome parade which included a quarter guard saw the officers queued up from the gate to the reception of the headquarters building.
Amidst cheers, the staffers who could not hide their elation over their boss’ elevation to the pinnacle of his career hailed him for the unquantifiable tremendous achievements recorded during his two and half years in office.
While exchanging pleasantries with everyone that was on the long queue one after the other, General Ibrahim thanked them for their enormous contributions to the success recorded by his administration so far.
