Dapo Abiodun’s words in part,



 

I hold a strong belief that officers who died in active service should be regarded as martyrs. As a people, we should not wait until the next Remembrance Day to support the wives and families of our fallen soldiers.

 

Just like the early Christians who died in the defence of their faith, these military martyrs paid the supreme sacrifice for Nigeria to remain one and for us to sleep with our two eyes closed.
