Mental resilience is crucial for combat readiness, according to the Chief of Army Staff. The Nigerian Army is urging personnel to develop this trait, along with ethical discipline and strong character, to tackle security challenges. A sensitisation seminar was held to promote these values, focusing on Warrior Ethos, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder management, and substance abuse.

The army's leadership emphasized that contemporary military operations require more than physical fitness and tactical competence. Soldiers must also be able to withstand prolonged operational pressures.

Further details on the seminar and the army's efforts to promote mental resilience are available from the source.
