Chukwuma Charles SOLUDO, CFR @CCSoludo

Today, we gather to honour the memories of our fallen heroes who paid the ultimate price in defense of our nation. As we commemorate this Armed Forces Remembrance Day, we are reminded of the sacrifices they made for our freedom and security.

We remember the brave men and women who have served our nation with distinction, and those who continue to serve with valor and dedication. We acknowledge the sacrifices of our gallant men of the Anambra State Vigilante group, who have had to endure the pain of separation, the anxiety of uncertainty, and the grief of loss.

In Anambra State, we are not immune to the security challenges plaguing our nation. The menace of insecurity has threatened our peace, stability, and prosperity. However, as wage this war against the enemies of our collective peace, we must recognize that they are familiar foes who do not deserve any form of support or cover from us.

We are also implementing a comprehensive security strategy that involves community policing, intelligence gathering, and swift response to security threats. Our aim is to create a secure environment that enables our people to live their lives without fear, and to pursue their livelihoods with confidence.

I urge you all to cooperate with our security agencies. They are our friends and allies in the quest for peace and security. Let us continue to support them as they work tirelessly to protect us.

To the families of our fallen heroes, we owe you a debt of gratitude. We will continue to support you and ensure that the sacrifices of your loved ones are not in vain.

As we remember our fallen heroes, let us also reflect on the values they represented: courage, sacrifice, loyalty, and patriotism. Let us strive to emulate these values in our daily lives, and to work towards a more peaceful, prosperous, and secure future for ourselves and for generations to come.

May Anambra continue to win!

Today, we gathered in Umuahia to mark the 2025 Armed Forces Remembrance Day. This solemn event served as an important reminder of the immense sacrifices made by our brave servicemen and women who have selflessly defended our nation and upheld the principles of freedom, peace, and justice.

We honour with profound gratitude the courageous servicemen who lost their lives in active duty in different parts of the State over the past year: Staff Sergeant Charles Ugochukwu, Sergeant Bala Abraham, Corporal Ugwu Gideon, Corporal Ikpeama Ikechukwu, Lance Corporal Augustine Emmanuel, and Lance Corporal Owolabi Ojo. We also pay tribute to Sergeant Ojo Godwin, Corporal Aliu Sunday, and Lance Corporal Akhide Sunday.

While we mourn their loss, we also celebrate the values that drove them to serve our fatherland. We must choose valour over fear and stand resolute against the threats posed by extremists and violent criminals. Our cause is just, and we shall prevail in our quest for sovereignty, peace, and stability.

Let us renew our commitment to national values that promote justice, reject corruption, and uphold meritocracy and patriotism. We urge the officers and men of the Nigerian military to exemplify the highest standards of professionalism and ethical conduct, respecting citizens' rights. Our servicemen and women must always uphold the ethos of their profession and the reputation of their institutions.

As a State, we will continue to collaborate closely with the military and security agencies to ensure Abia remains a safe destination for all. I appreciate the unwavering commitment of our security establishments and their partnership in maintaining the safety of our land.

We thank them for their support, and may God bless our Armed Forces and the great state of Abia.

Senator Monday Okpebholo @m_akpakomiza

Today, we honor the sacrifices of our Armed Forces and their families with respect and gratitude.

Our Armed Forces have stood firm against external threats, domestic challenges, and growing insecurity. Whether combating terrorism, protecting our boarders, or contributing to peacekeeping missions, their courage and professionalism inspire us all.

Let us also remember the ultimate sacrifice made by those who gave their lives in the service of our nation. These heroes, though no longer with us, have left a legacy in the secure future they helped build. To their families, we acknowledge your loss as a sacrifice shared by the entire nation. Edo State and Nigeria will never forget your loved ones.

As we honor our heroes today and always, we must recommit ourselves to supporting those who serve and their families. In Edo State, we pledge to continue programs that empower veterans and support the widows and orphans of the fallen, ensuring that their sacrifices are honored not only in words but in actions.

Let us look forward with hope, inspired by the courage of our heroes and the promise of a brighter tomorrow. Together, we can create a nation that honors its past and fulfills its potential for future generations.

To the gallant Armed Forces and their families, thank you for your service and sacrifice.

Edo State salutes you, Nigeria salutes you, and history will remember you.

May the souls of our fallen heroes rest in peace, and may their sacrifices never be in vain.

God Bless Edo State
God Bless the Nigerian Armed Forces
God Bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria

They should stop wearing bright colours to the remembrance day. There's nothing to be happy about young men and women who died in service. They could as well stay at the comfort of their homes. If anyone loses what is dear to them, they mourn even at the thought alone.

Patriotism dies when corruption gets celebrated

I believe true patriotism thrives on integrity and accountability. It's disheartening to witness corruption being tolerated, let alone celebrated. We must hold ourselves and our leaders to higher standards. Let's champion transparency and ethical conduct in all spheres of society. We should be footsoldiers commanding the fight for a great and respected Nigeria anywhere we are.
