For many years the gallant soldiers of the Nigerian army have been involved in a bloody and dangerous war against the deadly Boko Haram sect in the north-east of the country.



The troops confronted a multitude of militants in the northeast, but sometimes the Nigerian military also suffered casualties.

But more often these figures remain mere statistic as many Nigerians do not know their real heroes.

However, everything apparently changed with the death of the death of Lieutenant Colonel Muhammad Abu Ali, who said to be the most gallant commander and efficient fighter in the Nigerian army's battle to crush the members of the terror group.


The whole nation received this news with the pang of shock, tears, anguish and lamentations.

Since then some Nigerians took to different social media to honour other fallen heroes in this evil war with the hashtag #NigeriansHonourOurHeroes. These brave soldiers paid the supreme price, so we can live our lives in safety and security.



President Muhammadu Buhari is determined to end this war as soon as possible. Let's pray for our heroes!
