Today is Armed Forces Remembrance Day. It is a day that the
Nigerian Armed Forces is remembered for their sacrifice in keeping the country
safe. It is a day to remember those who fought in the 1st and 2nd
world wars. It was formerly celebrated annually on November 11. But later
changed to 15 January every year because during the civil war, the Biafran
troops surrendered to the Federal troops on 15th January, 1970.
That Nigeria is not divided right now is because of their
sacrifices and efforts.
We celebrate those serving now and all the fallen heroes of our
dear country.
May God keep Nigeria and restore peace to us.
