bandits, neutralized scores of them but lost 17 officers.
Following this, senator Shehu Sani, who mourned the death of
the heroic soldiers, took to his Facebook saying many families are deeply
mourning their loved ones.
“It’s sad to hear that the Nigerian Army lost 17 of its men
during an operation against bandits in Niger State. It is a colossal loss to
our country. Some may just read it as a news item, but our fallen heroes were
fathers, Brothers, Uncles, Sons and breadwinners to some families that are now
in deep mourning.
“They gave their lives for us to live in peace. We
appreciate their lives of service and the ultimate sacrifice they made for our
country.
I wish to appeal to the Nigerian Army and the FG to ensure that
the families they left behind are well taken care of, in their journey to an
uncertain future.I cant but imagine the pains in the hearts of their children
when they come to the realisation that “Daddy will never be coming back home
forever.
”We remain hopeful and prayerful that Our country shall
someday prevail over terrorists and bandits. May their souls rest in peace.”
