He added that Nigeria’s national narrative remains incomplete without recognising the Army’s courageous sacrifices, pulling them away from the comfort of their homes and the embrace of loved ones.

Part of the statement read: “On this Armed Forces Remembrance Day, I join other Nigerians in appreciating our military men who, in order to ensure peace and security within our borders, are willing to pay untold sacrifices.

“With the country going through very challenging times in its war against terrorism, violence, crime and all manner of insecurity, we show our support and solidarity to our military men, and urge them not to be despirited, even when they feel overstretched by the war.
