Let ff be a strict morphism of G into G′G' and let gg be a strict morphism of G′G' into G′′G''. If ff is surjective or if gg is injective, it follows immediately from Proposition 24 that g∘fg \circ f is a strict morphism of G into G′′G''. But this conclusion is no longer necessarily valid if neither of the two preceding conditions is satisfied, even if ff is injective and gg surjective (Exercise 19).

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
