Values of patriotism, loyalty and sacrifice for which the Nigeria Armed Forces are known for must be upheld at all times, so the labour of the past heroes shall not be in vain.
This was the submission of the Governor of Osun State, Ademola Adeleke, at the 2025 Armed Forces remembrance day, held at the state military Cenotaph on Wednesday.
Adeleke who promised to continue to support the Armed Forces to enable them perform their duties of protecting the territorial integrity of Nigeria, urged the military personnel neither to rest on their oars nor relax on their commitment.
He consoled the souls of the lost heroes in the field just as he paid glowing tribute to those who have served their father land with distinction, selflessness, dedication and gallantry.
While commending the efforts of the Armed Forces in the maintenance of peace and security as invaluable, the governor appreciated their contributions to the peace the citizens are enjoying today.
The Armed Forces Remembrance Day is celebrated annually to honor the bravery, sacrifices, and loyalty of the Nigeria Armed forces.
The event was marked with ceremonies and parades across the country, with dignitaries and citizens paying tributes to the fallen heroes and veterans.
