He used the occasion to urge officers who were not promoted not to be discouraged, but to continue to discharge their functions and duties, and wait for their time.
“I understand how you will feel, I mean those that have not been promoted. I can tell you everyone has his or her time. To those of you that have been promoted, see your promotion as a higher calling for more service to your country and humanity”, he said.
