“I want you to join me in this drive, vision and passion to move the people and state forward. I have hunger for success, despite the huge development in the state I am not yet satisfied because I have not gotten the Imo state of my dream.
I am not working with the mindset of this being a government job, I take it as a personal business held in trust for the people, which must succeed.”
The governor assured the command of every assistance needed to succeed and further advised the new commander saying, “this is an opportunity for you to showcase what you can do and who you are as you may never get the chance again. Wise men make good use of opportunity and the unwise lets it go, he opined.”
Earlier on, Bature said he came to officially present himself to the governor as the new commander and to pledge his support in ensuring security in the state.
He said “our operation is guarded by the constitution and the trust of our operation has been captured in the vision of the Chief of Army Staff which is encapsulated as to have a professionally positive army in the discharge of its constitutional roles.”
