| Governor Lalong. |
Plateau State Governor Simon Bako Lalong has appealed to Nigerians to encourage members of the armed forces through words and actions in order to spur them to do more in securing the nation.
The Governor spoke shortly after laying the wreath
at the tomb of the unknown soldier at the cenotaph located at the JD Gomwalk
Secretariat Jos to mark the 2023 Armed Forces Remembrance Day.
Lalong said officers and men of the security
services have made tremendous sacrifices towards ensuring that there is peace
and security in the country and should therefore receive commensurate respect
and goodwill.
He said despite the security challenges being
experienced in various parts of the country, the security personnel must not be
condemned or their morale dampened.
In particular, the Governor expressed appreciation
for the role that the security agencies have played in restoring peace to the
State and continuing to make it difficult for criminals to make a foothold in
any part of the State.
Apart from laying the wreath and releasing pigeons
to symbolise peace, the Governor was joined by other top Government officials
to lay wreaths. They include Speaker House of Assembly, Chief Judge of Plateau
State, GOC 3rd Armoured Division, NAF Commander, Commissioner of Police, Chairman
Nigerian Legion among others.
Prayers were also offered for the repose of the
souls of the departed.
