Akpabio, who was represented by the Deputy Speaker, Benjamin Kalu, made the remarks yesterday in Abuja during the interdenominational church service commemorating the 2025 Armed Forces Remembrance Day at the National Christian Centre.

Addressing a congregation of national leaders, religious figures, and citizens, the Senate President paid tribute to the courageous men and women of the Nigerian Armed Forces, past and present.

He reflected on his late father’s service in World War II, a legacy that shaped his values of service, unity, and commitment to Nigeria‘s progress.

“The sacrifices of our Armed Forces are not myths or fables—they are deeply personal to many of us,” Akpabio said. “Their dedication to service inspires us all. We owe them to build a nation worthy of their courage.”

Akpabio emphasised the need to honour these sacrifices by ensuring the welfare of the families of fallen heroes and strengthening support for veterans.

He pledged the administration’s commitment to implementing welfare programs and policies that address the challenges faced by these families.

The Senate President highlighted Nigeria’s diversity as a strength, calling on citizens to rise above divisions and work together to tackle the nation’s pressing challenges, including insecurity, economic hardships, and climate change.

“Nigeria is a tapestry woven with over 500 languages, diverse traditions, and various faiths. Our strength lies in our unity despite our diversity,” he said. “We can build a Nigeria that will never surrender to insecurity, avarice, tribalism, and corruption.”

He urged religious institutions to take charge of spreading messages of love, tolerance, and unity.

Akpabio also called for decisive action on national issues to create a better Nigeria for future generations, drawing inspiration from the resilience of past heroes.

“The blood of our heroes is the seed of our unity and progress,” he said. “Let us not only dream of a better Nigeria but work tirelessly to make it a reality.”

Dignitaries, Armed Forces members, and the families of fallen soldiers attended the ceremony. It marked a solemn moment of reflection, unity, and renewed commitment to the nation’s greatness.

As Nigeria moves into 2025, Akpabio called on all citizens to approach the year with hope, determination, and a shared vision for a stronger, more united Nigeria.

“May the fallen heroes‘ memories remind us of our responsibility. May their courage strengthen our resolve. And may we keep striving for a better, stronger, and united Nigeria,” he added.
