Speaking at a special Juma’at prayer in Abuja for the Nigerian Army Day Celebration (NADCEL) 2024, Yusuf emphasized the importance of public support and prayers for overcoming security issues.

He urged society members to act as preachers and counselors. NADCEL commemorates the 161-year history and achievements of the Nigerian Army.
