Falegan, who has supported widows and vulnerable people in the society through his foundation, noted that the families of the fallen heroes deserve maximum care and attention.
He went further to commend the Nigerian Armed Forces for their resilient and dedicated spirit in discharging their duties of ensuring that the country is rid of issues of insecurity and safe territory.
He said: “Our Nigerian flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it. No man is a man until he has been a soldier. Happy Armed Forces day.”
“My condolences to families of fallen heroes in Nigeria and globally.
