“Our nation has recently celebrated 55 years of political independence and continues to remain as one indivisible entity despite several grievous challenges. “Since independence, Nigeria has witnessed a lot of internal strife, survived a civil war and has remained united.

He also added that the fallen heroes, heroines and veterans and their sacrifices will not go unrewarded as the country continues to strive towards unity.

The Nigerian Army has therefore warned  the pro-Biafra protesters of their acts, nothing that they may be charged for felony if they continue with their agitations.
